Signaling that you are a man that can provide for a family

Someone who does not appreciate those who steal from exploitative global corporations, is not someone worth knowing.

Nobody got anything to say about her reply?! She could have just ghosted him but instead gave an honest reply.

i can't help but think that if your first date with someone is drive thru mcdonalds, maybe that should have been the first clue

A while back Taco Bell and T-Mobile was doing some promo where you could get a free taco each week (or something like that, it's been years) for "T-Mobile Tuesday". The code wasn't unique, but it's use was tracked on the TB account. TB at this time also didn't have a captcha for new accounts.

I also had a Google Workspace domain that had its email rigged to accept and deliver any email sent to its domain regardless of what was before the @.

A bit of C# later and I had a Taco Generator going, on command it would generate however many orders at whatever TB I choose. I'd just roll up and say I had 12 orders for cm0002 LMAO

No one ever said anything until the one time i pushed my luck and had it generate 24 tacos, then the manager was like "Better not be this high again, I'm cool with the 12"

That's kind of like going up to a display that says "free sample - one per customer" and taking several samples. And doing so on a first date, like: this is who I am. It's not really bad or anything, it's just... kind of weird and embarassing.

Find someone who appreciates you, chicken nugget wizard

I'm a tech guy. I dont mind the occasional redistribution of wealth from corporations. I can even appreciate exploits found in the wild like this or doing hacking when it doesn't hurt people.

What this signals, though, is that you are cheap. I side with the girl on this. It's a date. Pay for the meal and show her you can be normal first.

What am I missing? Is there a “free 10 nuggets, 1x per customer” kind of thing going on?

As a straight dude, I'll date ya Eli. Absolute legend, showing character and something different.

Yeah, I woulda thought this guy is a scammer and too would have moved on

There's a bunch of context missing from this. Did he tell her hey, I know a cool way we can get free McNuggets? Or did he just ask her out, took her to McDonald's and randomly pulled out a laptop with android emulators to get free McNuggets? Context matters a lot.

If it's the second one, it's giving me these vibes: :

You need to pull an anarchist for this to work out for you.

stuffs deep fried chicken paste in mouth

your loss !

Showing off tech skills, sticking it to the man, and getting chicken nuggets? You're great and dodged a bullet with that girl. Find someone who appreciates you!

I hope a shit ton of folks do this and they only lose money with the apps. they are bullshit.

Back in my day, we'd hack the local convenience store without computers. Walk in, stroll to the fridge, put cold beers in the inner pockets of the jacket and then walk out.

For some weird reason this also didn't impress the girls. They'd rather hang with the affluent fuck boi who paid for stuff with his parents money.

The only downside I'm seeing is that now you have 30 nuggets.

Anyone here who wants pro dating moves for 2024:

Have the ability to change your sheets right in front of your date, at least twice.

Own towels, not just one towel but sets of towels. Like an adult.

Have soap & toilet paper & hand towels in your bathroom(s)

Basically having a stocked linen closet will go a long way.

Also try being rich and fucking hot.

I just need to share that this series of images caused a wild multiple-hour-long argument between two autistic people in a group chat I'm in, one complaining about the undue work caused by the 3x10 McNugget orders, and the other saying "nah man its fine plus this is awesome it means the guy is trying to be frugal!"

I'm talking thousands of written words poured into argument for or against this individual's actions, sourcing expert testimony from friends and relatives that work in fast food, and even harsh words questioning individuals' respect for fast food workers. I'm honestly surprised nobody left the group chat because of this late night battle of wits

Not to mention that the "date" was to McDonalds.

How to class it up:

1. Display tech proficiency
2. Donate to her favorite charity
3. Share ill-gotten nuggets

Explain how this works. I would like some nuggies.

Can't show your best moves on the first date

Here's the link if anybody was looking for it: https://xcancel.com/rats7/status/1860039193201881356

I would marry you, if I where a girl

That just shows you're a good provider.

Knickers dropping.

Honestly dodged a bullet.

Maybe she's not that into nuggets.

Women these days... even a date to McDonalds doesn't impress 'em.

Ayo das blue stacks??? I miss that fkn app😂 that's a huge downside of choosing Linux I guess...

no wait please come back teach me your ways

Idk what s going through the girls head, or Wlis for that matter, but this would be a win for me

She'll be thinking about you in ten years when she's got three kids and both parents are working two jobs each to pay their rent.

It's an incredibly cringey thing to do on a first date. Like he's a Tim Robinson character.

Nah this is crazy lmfao

wow i used to know this guy

Everyone boo this woman.

I agree with the girl. If you're willing to steal from a McDonalds, what else are you scheming and how long until those scheme involve me? Theft is theft and I'd want nothing to do with it.

Edit. I don't care about McDonalds, I care about the lads moral compass and how he is willing to show off his "trick" to a first date and just drag her into a scheme. At least wait a while to say "what if we made 3 accounts and just got 3 orders of the $1 nugget deal?"

If the date is cool with it, great f* big corp. If not, you know she's got morals that don't perfectly align with yours - which is okay, as long you respect that and figure it out.

I'll stand by my statement "theft is theft", but I myself also won't deny having some morally gray online activities. However, I wouldn't want to have a first movie date through a movies123 clone. First impressions are key.
