Putting fries into ice cream? :blink: That's the weirdest thing I've ever heard. I guess I'll have to try it sometime. :D
Love and peace.

Yeah, usually milkshakes, Frosties, or soft serve ice cream. Well, I guess you could use regular ice cream if it was soft enough. But yeah, it's a hotly debated culinary topic.

Instead, we put our mayo on fries. The way God intended! :lol:
Most sandwiches part of a supermarket meal deal here has mayo. Very few have no mayo so you gotta them em or go home, but the mayo is really nice on chicken and sage and onion stuffing or a similar alternative. Most of them have mayo which is one of the best part

I was reluctant, but a friend convinced me to try the Frosty fry dip and I think I genuinely divide my life into the time before and after that monumental occasion. Do it.

Tbh we should just have the Frosty/fries as a dessert combo on the menu. People will come around during non-rush hours and surreptitiously order a frosty and a order of fries, then we all go yeppp we know what THEY'RE doing. When I still ate fries, this was my favorite meal to get.

I don't like mayo, either. Yuck. I actually don't like to have most condiments on my food if there's a choice.

Yeah, can you explain this one:

When the song says, "Because I'm tacky," is he talking about himself being tacky? That's stumped me for the longest time. For that matter, is he talking about himself when he says "I'm fat" in Fat? :unsure:

That's when you hand them the bag and say, "Enjoy" and give them a wink to tell them, "I know what you're doing." ;)

This is really one of the great meta-Al questions, isn't it? Is the narrator/singer of, say, Fat meant to be thought of as Weird Al himself? Or is it Michael Jackson? Or some other person? And if it's the other person, do they know about Michael Jackson's song, Bad, or in that universe does Bad not exist? Does the narrator know they are singing parody lyrics? These are questions I think about often.

I looked up the Frosty, because out of the loop, and WHY THE HELL DO PEOPLE GO AND DO THAT? That is seriously so freaking disgusting in so many ways. Would rather tackle an extra hot chicken butterfly at Nandos, and by extra hot I mean SUPER HOT. They do that stuff very spicy guys don't underestimate the Nandos.

It's like putting fries into a slushie. So disgusting.
