love the ponytail

― mark s, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

How did I *know* he'd have that haircut?

― Wil, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Forget the ponytail, check the fringe (in the video). And he has a worryingly small head.

― Graham, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

it's beyond description. and i mean that in a bad way.

― katie, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Imagine the state of the man's bowels.

― RickyT, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That hairdo is sooooooooooooooooo cool, I want to be that man.

― DG, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh great.

I went out to the forest and aaaaaaate, eighteeeeen thousand hamburgers, as the fat richochets round my veins, it reminds me of that 'special sauce'....

― Sarah, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I feel rather icky.

― Sarah, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

oh dear, what a deeply sad man, this kind of thing just makes me think meh, the world's just gone sad.

― chris, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Does he save all the grease-stained wrappings?

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like the fact that for dinner he either has big mac or lobster.

― Jonnie, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That made me really want a big mac. Oh god.

― Tom, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

the story made me feel sick.

do you reckon he's keep count of them all? he said he kept count of eating lobster

― m jemmeson, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

it's like 18000 hamburgers when all you need is a pie

― Alan Trewartha, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Not an apple pie though, they burn your mouth so.

― Pete, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I love the way he "skips breakfast and lunch, dedicating his hunger to the Big Mac".

― Madchen, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Do you wonder if he ever thinks, "Ah, fuck it, tonight I'm going to have Chicken McNuggets and a Vanilla milkshake"?

― Jonnie, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The bloke who sits next to me has just told me about a TV programme he saw where they were doing a vox pop to see if people were getting their five portions of fruit and veg per day. They stopped one guy and asked what he'd eaten that day. He'd had McDonalds for breakfast and lunch, but thought he'd probably go to KFC in the evening. What about his fruit and veg? After a long pause, his face lights up. It's OK, he had an apple pie at lunchtime. This is my kind of diet. Yum.

― Madchen, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

+ french fries + iceberg lettuce + gherkin + tomato ketchup = 5 portions! Hurrah!

― Nick, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

If only he had known about

― Kim, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

er... this!

― Kim, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

ewwww. (re: mclobster)

I was amazed that all those big macs only equaled 14 cows.

― Samantha, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What have McDonalds done to Pinchy!!!!

― Jonnie, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

you have to remember that McDonalds probably manage to get more 'beef' (used in loosest possible sense) out of a cow than most butchers... but yes, it did seem low - is probably a mistake

― m jemmeson, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I didn't eat one by the way. I was too afraid.

― Kim, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I am struck by the 'Child Size Soft Drink' advertised in your photo, Kim. I knew people in the U.S. liked to guzzle, but that's pretty big, even if you're talking about an infant.

― Nick, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And what the heck is 2% Milk?

― Jonnie, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Nova Scotia is in Canada, Nick. Which explains the curious measuring system.

2% milk only has 2% milkfat - somewhere between skim and whole.

End communication.

― Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Heh. If you think that's amusing Nick, it's too bad I missed out on a picture of the family size box of fries.

2% is the standard here you could say (as opposed to fattier homogenized or non fat skim milk) and they recently introduced 1% for the "I'm even more diet conscious than those flabby 2% drinkers but you can bet that I'm not about to drink that tasteless skim swill" crowd. Oh there's this stuff called PurFilter milk too that's supposed to have all natural organisms removed or something. The milk marketing boards here are crazy I tell you.

― Kim, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Sorry - guessed wrong cause I saw 'U.S something' poking out the right side of the photo. I have now shown pic to Nova Scotian colleague who is mystified as to why I am looking at pictures of his local McDonalds on the web.

― Nick, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I dunno, but I kinda admire the guys single-mindedness! He's like those old grannies who live to 100 and smoke 20 a day.

― james, Tuesday, 13 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

1% milk drinkers = Sasha and Digweed?
