[Closed] McDonalds- that'll teach me (Rant content)

hora just admit ffs that you are fat and unfit, sugar crash, hypotonic, the list is endless?? fat unfit bastard more like

Should have eaten a whopper.

McDonalds in "their food is not nutritional" shocker

Why are they the official 'Restaurant' sponsor for the Olympics? Whats that telling impressionable youth?!!

They have more money than any other restaurant??

Riiiiight. The McDonalds made you suck.

...but they taste so good* (occasionally when they can be bothered)

*I've had 3 maccy d's this year after years of none, 1 out of those 3 was ok.

Unexplain 'sugar crash' or 'typical stw lardcore rider finds limits of fitness'.

You really think you bonked early in a ride from low sugar levels? Probably indigestion from shovelling a fatboy meal down then riding straight afterwards!

Hora,

You are a classic example of modern society's 'It's not my fault, its everything/everybody else's fault' attitude.

Fact is, you failed to take on adequate nutrition for your energy demands. How is that anybody else's fault but yours?

I'm contacting a Solicitor on a no-fee basis to sue you Scienceofficer

Their Breakfasts are alright- I could eat them numerous times a year. The meals though- I could eat two and think 'wheres that gone'? 😐

Large or medium?

What drink did you have?

Cheeseburger on the side?

It's all in the ordering Hora

It's years since I ate anything from McDonalds, although at one time I did use them occasionally.

There is definitely something wrong with their 'food'.

Even after a Big Mac, Large Fries & Drink I remember always feeling hungry again less than 2 hours later.

Thats what I had Big Mac (bread), fries (potato) and milkshake (milk).

Assuming you had medium fries and a medium strawberry milkshake, you had:

Energy 1200kCal (61% of GDA)
Protein 40g (53%of GDA)
Carbs tot 150g (54% GDA)
Carbs (sugars) 71g (77% GDA)
Fat tot 47g (70% GDA)
Fat sat 17g (77% GDA)
Fibre 8g (32% GDA)
Salt 3.1g (62% GDA)

data from the macd website

So, not enough food or just unfit?

I can eat a bacon sarnie and scrambled eggs (At 7am) and it'll last me until 12ish.

I think its cheap/sugar-carb energy.

Previously after eating McD's I've squit through the eye of a needle.

<catchphrase> Say what you see now </catchphrase>

Not blaming the new 5Spot then?

I think its cheap/sugar-carb energy

So, if you ate something with the same nutritional content, but it cost 3 times as much, that would make it better?

Sugar Snob!

Hora - did you want the arm chair?

Ideal for eating Big Macs on...

I see what the problem is here....

It isn't your problem that you shovel food in your gob, refuse to see the evidence presented that it wasn't that bad and you carry on slagging McD's?

It is because your hands are too close to your mouth isn't it? Genetics 🙄

The coffee is ok

I blame the 5 Spot - the crap paint job, flaky decals, poorly finished dropouts, wrong headtube angle, 'bar heavy' feel (?!). Or maybe your forks weren't working properly?

Nope- setup/teething issues which im working on. Still havent sent off my forks to be fixed under warranty though 🙁

Thats what I had Big Mac (bread), fries (potato) and milkshake (milk).

I recently had the same (coke not milk) after a looong period of not having mcdonalds. I only really wanted the coke as I was parched and tired. I was amazed at how much smaller the big mac is now, I swear it's half as big as it was when I last had one! Sufficed to say I was still pretty hungry after.

stw lardcore

Kwalitage! 😆

The 'food' is shit.
500% profit on everything sold including labour. If the 'food' doesnt make this profit margin, its a 'seasonal special'

Unfortunately, because I finish work about an hour before our club rides start on a Thurs, and Mrs D does jogging that night, I often have a Mickey D before the ride. I have often felt like puking it up but it has never made me less AWESOME than I already am! There is something else at work here that you are not letting on about. I suspect pishness. To maintain my svelte 106Kg frame I also have a meal when I finish the ride, providing I don't get my carb reload from cider, which is sometimes the case.

You couldn't make this up.

Perhaps you should see a sports psychologist to sort out your issues with the wrong / cheap type of sugar?

I'm waiting for Stopadoodledoo to arrive for things to really get funny.

McD's are only good for the old McShit as we know. Although Starbucks is after that crown with the StarDump.

McD's are only ever good for emergency coffee.

If you say his name three times..

Although hes now a Bogtrotter 😯 (i.e. grown up)... I bet you didn't crack any naughty jokes on that ride J 😉

Really? Why not take a sandwich to work, or buy a salad from Boots/M&S/Sainsbury's/Tesco etc etc, you have a Maccy D's because you like them, don't look for excuses!

Hora I call twaddle on your 'sugar crash'!

I work from home but support several businesses so at the drop of a hat I get called out and it can't be planned for. But, besides that, yes I do like them and don't particularly see them as the evil they are portrayed as. I couldn't eat more than one a week as I would get sick of them. Surely one of the benefits of being so fit and doing all the exercise is that we can eat/drink what we want? Unless of course you have ambitions to make it to the top of your chosen sport where every meal has to be planned and timed. Excuses? Not me, it's convenient, fills a hole, is sometimes nicer than you imagine and I loves it. I should maybe point out that there is very little fat on my 106Kg.

It was your use of the word unfortunately which suggested you felt there were no other options. That's obviously not the case!

Personally I prefer BK, Angus with bacon and cheese mmmmmm!

there is very little fat on my 106Kg

carrying around all that muscle I'm surprised your not out-sprinting Chris Hoy.

Sometimes when I drive up to the one on the corner to get dinner for the kids I'll get myself a meal as well, they won't do too much harm if I only have one occasionally- most of the time though I'll just get them for the kids and have something healthier for myself.

I've never understood this, fill the kids with McD cr*p but eat something healthy yourself, or have I missed something?

[i]have I missed something? [/i]

are you American?

No.

It seems that everyday life really is hard work for some people...

how is this even a rant?
it's just trolling, surely...

Dear Seb Coe

I am writing with some unfortunate news that you may find disturbing.

Recently, I was seeking out some nutrition before some exercise. That was unusual in itself, as normally I arrange to do some exercise (in this case mountain biking) spank thousands of pounds on the latest kit, before noticing a slight cloud on the horizon or a 1 degree drop in temperature and retreat back to the welcoming embrace of the duvet.

Anyway, Where should I look for the ideal calorific intake for sporting activity. Why, good sir, I looked to you. An olympic athlete, similar to myself*. I assume that a man of your stature and honesty (being a Tory MP after all) would personally call on your many years of sporting achievement to ensure that only the finest, most suitable nutrition would be given the honour of being an official 'partner of 2012. Partner is such a nice word isn't it. I like it how you've used partners instead of sponsors. That would be cheap.

So I found myself in Macdonalds and after much thought, purchased the most suitable item - a Happy Meal. I ate the burger, but then struggled putting the toy together. In fact, it took over 2 hours. The instructions were obviously wrong. Or it was defective. Like every bike frame I've ever bought. Anyway, as a result i had to cancel my ride, but I wasn't half tired driving home. Just imagine what could have happened if I'd actually gone out on my ride as planned!!!

In light of this shocking discovery it looks like you're going to be left with no option but to cancel the Olympics. Sorry.

Though some people refer to me as gullible, and a marketing departments wet dream, I maintain that I simply analyse for myself the marketing messages beamed into my cavernous, yet vacuous cranium, before drawing my own conclusions. The fact that they differ from every other sane persons is simply conjecture

Yours sincerely

Mark

PS: I really like the logo

*I haven't actually won an Olympic medal, but I could if I wanted too. Probably.

Genius binners - much lollage.

njee - for Mcd read "any of the major convenience fod chains but generally the one with a clown" I like the BK Chicken Tendercrisp thing. It even has a resemblence of salad on it.

Beat Chris Hoy??? Put him in the scrum then 🙂

as if you needed to point that out matey!

erm, so what where the 'fries' made out of?

My kids each mcdonalds about 4 times a week and are full of energy. My youngest used to watch his brother having a cheeseburger and get jealous so we stuck one in the blender for him. They go a weird colour once they are mushed up. We're very responsible parents and will encourage them to eat vegitables when they are older.

I think the problem is that fat people and steep hills don't really go together.

I had to have a BK beanburger thing the other week as everyone else I was training with wanted to go for BK.

I reckon you could diet on them, as I didn't feel like eating again for about 24 hours.. maybe it's an acquired skill.

Look like that baby powder bonded together with glue IMO.

Hora redefining levels of silliness again, all would appear to be in order.

....and everyone taking the bait.

You can't get a good McDonalds anywhere within the M60 I reckon, The McDonalds over in Yorkshire are far superior.

Mmmmm sausage egg muffin
