Little fatties!

Quote:
A group of Korean youngsters reportedly bought �165 worth of French fries and filled 16 service trays for their feast, enraging the restaurant's staff, who ordered the 'brats' to 'stop causing trouble' and 'get out of here', according to Gawker.

Someone claiming to be an employee of that McDonald's tweeted the person who posted the photo: 'Please stop, please stop'.

The supposed employee added that other customers had complained that the French fry eating went on for three hours, while people watching blocked the walkway, inconveniencing other patrons.

I find this rather funny. But why would it be disrespectful to "low-wage workers"? THEY'RE LOW WAGE WORKERS. They are meant to work in not so good conditions. If they don't like it, quit and get a real job.

Damn these youngin's with their crazy french fry parties!
Why can't they be like the previous generations... experimenting with acid, embracing complete sexual inhibition and disrespecting their elders.

"embracing complete sexual inhibition "

That sounds really hard to do.

To be fair, gluttony is not intrinsically American, though it's an understandable equation to make.

Right. America is the Far West, yeah? The fundamentalist West. Quantity over quality as cultural achievement.
