Chuck: Can't believe I paid $5.00 fer a McChicken. This thing is bone-dry and they didn't even bother to give me one packet of ketchup. I ain't going there no more.

Randal: Tell me about it, in CaliWali I used to buy the hot and ready for five bucks. Now the Hot Carl is $23.00. You roll the dice by ordering it, sometimes there are burnt patches with no cheese, sauce, or pepperoni. Wait time is thirty minutes, even when the joint is empty.

Chuck: No kiddin', The Soaring 20's got us paying tips just fer standin' at the counter.
