I have never chased a dream harder than this Australian man pursued his dream of getting McDonald’s chicken nuggets at 4:50 am. But despite what all those inspirational quotes tell you, following your passions could end you up in jail with a horny cell mate.
A man has been arrested in Sydney, Australia after he ordered 200 hash browns when he was told he couldn’t order Chicken McNuggets off the breakfast menu. According to Metro, the 30-year-old man grew so furious that he proceeded to do four laps through the drive-thru.
Eventually the police were called and when they arrived several minutes later, the man was still waiting outside for his hash browns.
Of course, the officers breathalyzed the man and, SURPRISE! he was found to be three times over the legal limit of .05. Australia is known for its harsh drunk driving penalties, and the law states that police officers can stop any driver and perform a random breath test without reason. If a driver refuses to take the breathalyzer, they are faced with severe penalties including jail time.
This dude was playing with fire when he decided to be a world-class asshole and has already gotten his license suspended while awaiting a court date on November 30th. Now, I’m not taking his side or anything, but I understand where his frustrations lie. One should be able to obtain delicious chicken McNuggets whenever he or she damn well pleases. And I’m not the only one who thinks so. McDonald’s has been pressed so hard on the McNugget issue that they were forced to issue a statement.
Via Metro:
It says: ‘We only have the capacity to cook one set of products at a time.’
‘Breakfast and main menu items cook at different temperatures and we need the same set of equipment to cook sausage and eggs and beef patties.’
Unacceptable. But I think this Aussie lunatic already nailed home that point.
