Yah this isn't something you break out on the first date, you really have to get to know the person and learn what their social views and politics are before you try to "subvert capitalism at the nearest mcdonalds."
I mean, good tho that he learned early. It's just too bad he's going to get a billion messages asking how to do this trick exactly and McDonalds Corporation will have to patch their kiosks.
We can't have nice things.
If this is the kind of thing he likes doing he should absolutely do it on the first date and find out they're not compatible right away instead of wasting time on someone that thinks he's weird. Why delay the inevitable?
On the first date literally everything "not normal behaviour" is somewhat "dangerous". You're looking out for red flags and don't hesitate to end everything before it begins. Instead of conversations about why someone did something it usually just ends, so the time he does this is devinetively something. In a relationship he probably would have gotten the possibility to explain himself.
Man, y'all are no fun if you think something silly like using a few emulators to take advantage of McDonald's new account offers is so "not normal" that it constitutes being "dangerous"
Yea, dangerous is a bit far. It's dumb as fuck for a first date tho just based on it being McDonald's. Who in their right mind makes McDonald's a date at all, let alone add in multiple fuckin emulators just to get a bunch of shitty, stale nuggets.
Sure, I guess. I still think the reaction in some of these threads is pretty extreme for a meme post in a meme community, especially since the original meme doesn't even make it clear if this was for a date at all.
