What--no fries?! ATTACK!!!!

Post by dr. what »

Hey--what can I say--the man likes his fries.....

A Pennsylvanian man allegedly tried to run over restaurant workers after they told him they had run out of fries.

It happened after the 22-year-old, of DuBois in Clearfield County, and a couple of friends asked for fries at a drive-in Burger King in Sandy.

According to the Courier-Express in DuBois, the man made an obscene gesture and repeatedly cursed at staff after learning they had run out.

He then noticed a couple of restaurant workers taking down his number plate registration and allegedly drove his truck at them, nearly hitting one employee.

The man was arrested a short distance away on Route 255, where he allegedly scuffled with police, kicking out the back window of a police car after he was handcuffed.

He has been released on bail but faces charges including assault, reckless endangerment, reckless driving, harassment, drunken driving, fleeing police, disorderly conduct and vandalism.

One the charges listed was drunk driving, which suggests the obvious answer to what was going through his mind.

One of the people I knew was like that. Would flip out at the silliest things, like not scoring a goal in a soccer game. Started cursing, hitting things and throwing stuff around when that happened.

Was a really overconfident guy, too. Expected to actually get a renewed first term during a final, because he had a football game then - and when the professor refused, he started punching the wall and cussing loudly after he left the office.

Just something the article reminded me of :)

While the police are holding him they should feed the guy nothing but greasy fries. Greasy fries for breakfast, greasy fries for lunch, greasy fries for dinner, and greasy fries for dessert. Ironic punishment can be the best kind.

Now - I can get angry when they don't have their shake machines working (don't drink fizzy drinks and its not like theres a lot of other options) - especially when not a single fast food joint in town has them working, not Hungry Jacks nor McDonalds at any of their locations - but I get angry in my HEAD! I DON'T TRY TO RUN PEOPLE DOWN!

I remember a time at A&W when there was no shakes because an employee was refusing to make them. So crazyness extends past the counter, I guess.

No, the crappiest, least tasty fast-food fries on the market.

I knew that this was going to be in Central PA before I even saw the county name.
