Oh no Mike, that clip you posted: the car has a sticker for the University of Notre Dame on it.

I promise not all ND kids are this stupid.

Those flat-brimmed baseball caps always seem a couple of sizes too big, as though Charles Schultz drew them on their heads!

^^^ If we're talking as a political statement like you were joking about before, at least planking leaves you less likely to be arrested. [Wink]

Everyone is more prudish than ever. I blame Janet Jackson.

I think streaking, if done right, is downright hilarious.

But with a new rule: Only attractive women are allowed to streak (as predetermined by myself). If men want to make things change in this country, they'll have to write letters to their congressman and work hard.

I like how PETA thinks. Celebrities pose "nude" to try to get people to stop being cruel to animals. Yeah, that'll help. We start being nice to the damn things and you'll stop posing "nude".

Some guys would have to streak. Otherwise chicks won't do it. I'll tolerate guys streaking so long as they're not fat, drunk assholes.

BTW: Wait a second! Let me see if I get this right.
So, if I buy fur coats, hot chicks will get naked?

Where's the nearest furrier? I'm buying two furs!

Thankfully no one in this group was ever a teenager [Wink]

Seriously, isn't the main goal of all teenagedom to tick off old people?

Mission Accomplished kids.

PETA also wrote to Ben and Jerry's requesting that they switch from cow's milk to the human variety... [uhoh]

Maccas Manager threatens customers regarding coning!

Coning may be really stupid but managers threatening customers with sticking the ice creams in their faces? Seems like the mc manager deserves to be sacked or returned to the fryer duty!

She wasn't a customer, she was a prankster. Which is a horse of a completely different colour.

In his position I wouldn't have told her I would throw it in her face, but I would certainly have told her I was going to throw them away if she didn't straighten out and fly right. I've tuned up a few kids here on occasion for similar idiocy and they usually don't have to be told a second time.

Maybe this'll be seen as semantics but the fact that she paid for the cones to me makes her a customer. There's nothing that says that she has to grab it by the cone...

On the other hand, there is something that says the guy can't threaten to smash the stuff in her face; namely, the law against threatening to assault another person.

In the video you can clearly see that she reaches for the ice cream part of the cone, not the bottom. The chap who's handing it out of the window can probably also see that her boyfriend is filming the exchange.

At this point it's obvious that this isn't just two people ordering an ice cream cone in the expected and accepted manner.

What would you do? Hand it over like nothing is going on, have a mess in your drive-through lane and encourage people to continue to do this because you're "participating"? Or take action to stop it?
