You know, I love what you guys are trying to do here. I love seeing the pictures you guys post when progress is made and I agree with you that the world would be better with more walkable places that are beautiful and green.

This post though? It is pointless and it makes you all look batshit insane.

“Oh no, someone used a drive thru. Stupid car brain! Use ur legs moron!”

Meanwhile I’m sitting here 45 miles from the nearest Walmart haha. Out here in rural hell I’d have to camp out overnight to finish my journey to get food.

I know, I know. I should take my talentless, unskilled ass to a city and leave everyone I know and love behind so I can walk from my cardboard box to McDonald’s.

Maybe I’m just in a bad mood. I usually like the posts here. This one just rubs me the wrong way.

Bruh get one of those insulated bags that the doordash people use. Order the food in the drive through, put it in the insulated bag, close the lid. Then drive home and have your food at the kitchen table with a metal knife and fork like a civilized person. You won't get crumbs and sauce on the carpet of your car. You'll have an actual table to put your plate on. You can watch TV if you want. You can have a soda from the fridge at home instead of spending all that money on the McDonald's sprite. You can sit down with your family and talk about your day.

For me, that would be some very cold food by the time I got to eat it.

I always put my phone on my steering wheel and watch tv. I’m a stay at home dad, my kids know all about my day haha.
