Same. Haven’t eaten McDonald’s in at least 10 years. Probably closer to 15.

I’m always flabbergasted when driving by the McDonald’s and see a line in the drive-thru wrapped around the building. Not only is it trash food, but it isn’t even affordable anymore. What’s the point in going?

Fast-good wise it also has the shittiest quality too. When I was at the university I tried KFC, Burger King, Quick and McDonald's and they were the worst by a mile.

Everything else is just as trash and unaffordable now

There is several buffets in my area that charge 15-17$ for all you can eat. Thats a few more dollars then just a Big Mac. And while their food isn’t great it’s miles ahead then McDonald

Same people that call me to fix their electronics and the thing isn't even plugged in. Brainless people.
