Default friggin old people

So I'm standing in line at BK to just order a burger and some coke. This old lady in front of me has like a duffle bag full of purses and bags and ... junk. It's her turn to order but does she? No. She pulls out of her bag... 3 more bags. Opens the 3rd one and pulls out a large looking wallet... it's filled with coupons.

Ok, no big deal, she's just using a coupon. 5 mins after she found her coupon book she still looking through it for the BK coupons. She goes past them 3 times before she finds them, I just wanted to do it for her. So then she finds them... spends another 2 mins picking the one she wants. It's expired.

Ok, so she looks for another one... that one is so old they don't even carry that meal anymore. Another min goes by and she finds a recent one. Order a whopper and a drink and get a free med fry. Awesome... order is done, my turn. She found a better coupon and wants to change her order. I be nice and let her go ahead. So then she changes it... then I order in less than 5 seconds.

That's not the end of it... she then dumps out her gunny sack on the counter where they put the trays of food and starts going through her bags looking for something. "Oh, I don't know where I put it" ... then takes 3 more mins to put it all back... but it's now all out of place. So out come some more bags and they are methodially put back in. It's back in place and she takes it off the counter... so they start putting down the 42565625 trays for all the people behind me and putting the food on. So that's the end eh? I wish. :happysad:

We are in a corral type of line and she's at the end of it... she apparently moved the bag from the counter to the floor and has everthing all over, again. So we all wait for her to put everything back in, another 2-3 mins. She gets her food and goes to sit down. The whole line silently cheers, sighs of releif, "about time" etc etc. The end.


Cliff notes... old bag with a BIG bag of bags holds up half dozen people at local BK. It sucked, thought I would share.
