ChiComs get first McDonald’s drive-thru

by Matt Bramanti · 01/19/2007 1:46 pm

Please pull up to the first window, comrade:

McDonald’s and its partner, also known as Sinopec, christened the new two-story Beijing restaurant, set beside a Sinopec filling station, with a ceremony that mixed traditional lion dancers and a Chinese- speaking Ronald McDonald.

Minutes later, Beijing resident Dong Tianwu and his daughter pulled up at the drive-through window in a Chinese-made Xiali compact and bought three meals and drinks.

“It’s certainly convenient,” Dong said. At a walk-in McDonald’s, he said, “if you take a child, sometimes you have to line up for hours and that’s a lot of trouble.”

Don’t even try to take two children.

LOL. It is really bad when the father’s name is “Dong” all that comes to my mind is, I will take a double quarter pounder no onions and supersize it.

Hmmm, I guess their potential happy meal market is a bit limited.

AHA! The grand plan commences. First, we make them all fat and happy on greasy burgers and fries and fatten them on milkshakes. The fat will generate hormones that make them content and peaceful. All they want is another hamburger and fries. The forget to be rabidly angry at the US. Their pool of potential spies and soldiers slowly disappears under mounds of fat and happy smiles. Then we move in….

bwaaahahahahahahaha

tedtam, I beleive the military/industrial/McDonalds complex is actually lacing the food with psycho-active drugs that will cause the Chinese to become their slaves. Therein creating a cheap labor force to fill their needs. Once they have properly trained key Chinese “Assistant Managers,” they will be sent to other countries to spread the power of the McOverlords.

On a side note, do you think Chinese drive-thrus deny service to customers on bicycles like in the States?

Well, I see American style capitalism has been planted in China. Let’s hope they don’t get paranoid and think the company is there for spying.

They also just proved they can blast satelites with missles. Chase our subs undetected, etc.

Nice?

The people will get fat and happy while the gov sets up its military industrial complex.

I for one welcome our McDonaldian Overlords. And let me just say that as a fat and happy American I could be very useful to our new Overlords in rounding up new people to work in their hamburger mines.

You like feel good stories. Great.

I am glad they can eat burgers & fries now.

Trade with china IMO will prove to be a big mistake. A painful one too.

The reason I pointed that out was the stories were almost side by side on drudge.

Hamburgers, missles, china.
