Never eat French Fries in the hot tub

Well, at least with the title, the rest of this fits into this category  8)

I went into McDonald's today and noticed they did away with "Supersize" fries.  I know they did it for public pressure/health reasons, but I applaud them for it anyway.  Its been a pet peeve of mine that you have to remember what cute little name each fast food place calls their different sizes. I never could get myself to order "Great Biggie" as I thought it made me sound like an 8 year old.  So now McD's only has regular (can't say small), medium, and large fries.  What a relief! I hope others follow suit!

I think the moive "SuperSize Me" was GREAT. If you haven't seen it you want to check it out.

Agreed. While nobody's diet should consist of fast food only joints, it was enlightening.  I'll bet that was in influence.

Brewman:
I agree, that movie was very good.  Except for the part where he lost it out his car window........

What is up with size names, anyhow?

It was so much easier when there was small, meduium, large, etc..

Now a small is a large, a medium is a Giaganto, and a large is a something else.  You get the same amount of stuff, and you get confused.  
Our local take and bake pizza joint just did that.  They have medium, large, and family size.  They used to just have medium and large.  Not sure why they couldn't use just big and small.  The new family size is the old large.  
But my coupons say large, but were issued to me before they changed the names (Not the size) of their sizes.  Try explaining that to the cashier with the IQ of a bent paperclip.

At the local Burger World:

ME: I'll take a small coke to go, please.

Idiot:  We don't have small cokes.

Me: I want the smallest serving of coke you sell.

Idot: That's a large.

Me:  Whatever. Ring it up.. ::) ::) ::)

Dr. Spa™ Ret.:
Me on the phone to the pizza place.........

Me: I'll take a small

Idiot: We don't have a small, just meduim, large and extra large

Me: Ummmm, you can't have medium without having something both bigger and something smaller. Medium indicates it's a size inbetween. Gimmie the small.

Idiot: We don't have a small.

Me: Ok, do you have the number to the pizza place next door to you cause they do have a small.

Idiot: Yeah, hold on a sec

HE GAVE ME THE NUMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
