I just need to share that this series of images caused a wild multiple-hour-long argument between two autistic people in a group chat I'm in, one complaining about the undue work caused by the 3x10 McNugget orders, and the other saying "nah man its fine plus this is awesome it means the guy is trying to be frugal!"

I'm talking thousands of written words poured into argument for or against this individual's actions, sourcing expert testimony from friends and relatives that work in fast food, and even harsh words questioning individuals' respect for fast food workers. I'm honestly surprised nobody left the group chat because of this late night battle of wits

There's a bunch of context missing from this. Did he tell her hey, I know a cool way we can get free McNuggets? Or did he just ask her out, took her to McDonald's and randomly pulled out a laptop with android emulators to get free McNuggets? Context matters a lot.

If it's the second one, it's giving me these vibes: :1000011193

Same. I just watched this episode 30 minutes ago too

Back in my day, we'd hack the local convenience store without computers. Walk in, stroll to the fridge, put cold beers in the inner pockets of the jacket and then walk out.

For some weird reason this also didn't impress the girls. They'd rather hang with the affluent fuck boi who paid for stuff with his parents money.

Showing off tech skills, sticking it to the man, and getting chicken nuggets? You're great and dodged a bullet with that girl. Find someone who appreciates you!

no wait please come back teach me your ways

Explain how this works. I would like some nuggies.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I'm assuming they are just spinning up new Android VMs to install the app on so it looks like a first time install and eligible for some free nuggets promotional.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

This is exactly how it works, although they've started trying to give you different deals ($1 instead of free, only works on second purchase, fries instead of nuggets, etc)

The app will ban both your IP and MAC address if you use it too many times, so make sure you can either create a new one (via a VM) or randomize it. (Via a custom ROM with MAC randomization enabled)

Don't ask me how I know.

Not to mention that the "date" was to McDonalds.

I would marry you, if I where a girl

[–] [email protected] 20 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

you don't have to be a woman to marry a man!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Are you assuming the scammers gender ?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

OP said it was a man in the title

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

Uuhh. Ooh HHH

I can't say you're right so I'll nitpick ok? That was op not the Twitter poster

[–] [email protected] 1 points 38 seconds ago

The screenshot of the break up text refers to the tweeter as being a guy.

It's an incredibly cringey thing to do on a first date. Like he's a Tim Robinson character.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

I'd be more upset about the date being at McDonald's than him getting free food from an evil corporation

How to class it up:

  1. Display tech proficiency
  2. Donate to her favorite charity
  3. Share ill-gotten nuggets

  1. Kick the second date up a notch and go to Arby's.
[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

"You know what I and Arby's have in common? We have the meats."

What are you, Klingon?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 hours ago

Idk what s going through the girls head, or Wlis for that matter, but this would be a win for me
