Checker's doesn't bother me, but Wendy's makes me feel...not great.

Wendy's is hot wet garbage outside of their 6 dollar specialty chicken sandwiches.

I don't think i've ever been given crispy french fries at any Wendy's in my entire life. They're always either bendy or soggy. Awful. Terrible.

I realize that Wendy's makes all their advertising about LOOK HOW MUCH BACON WE THREW ON THIS LATEST SQUARE MEAT-LIKE SUBSTANCE but if you've never had their spicy chicken sandwich you've made some incorrect life choices.

Not sure why it's any surprise that food made fast and easy enough that it can be served through a window and eaten while driving isn't great. I eat at Wendy's not because it's particularly good, but because I'm a lazy rear end in a top hat who doesn't feel like getting out of his car, but wants something marginally better than McDonald's.

Since this is the fast-food thread now I thought I'd mention that the new girl at the Carl's Jr drive thru argued with me about whether the Cripsy Chicken El Diablo exists. She insists that it never existed and that I made it up. And I first saw it mentioned in a Rick and Morty commercial dammit. A commercial I did not hate. Phew, snuck in that relevance.

Which has a goon connection, as it was a video a goon made of their cat wearing a "RapCat jersey" (at the time the Checkers bags were designed as jerseys you could cut holes out of for your cat to wear) that caused certain parts of the internet to melt down in rage over how a cat inside a paper bag is somehow animal abuse, which caused them to kill off RapCat altogether.

I once had a summer job working a factor where I cleaned black diamond slurry off of tungsten or silicon carbide parts. You got covered in this shiny black material that got everywhere. There was a day I accidentally dropped one of my workboots on the carpet in my parents house. Its been 13 years and the vague, boot-shaped stain on the carpet is still there. Nothing can touch it. Maybe its a product to clean that up.

I can't find it online, but the Liberty Mutual Insurance commercial with the guy talking about depreciation bugs me to no end. "My car got totaled right after I bought it, but they won't give me full replacement. Depreciation, they claim. How can my car depreciate before its first oil change?" I get not everyone has a background in accounting, but something about the way he makes it sound like "I don't understand what depreciation means, therefore it's dumb and shouldn't apply to me" rubs me the wrong way, like it'a a scam or something.

How about the one where the woman complains that your insurance company will only pay you 3/4 of the value of your car after somebody else t-bones you. That's what the other guy's insurance is for.

I think he's being critical of the rate it depreciates. Years ago, I was in a wreck where opposing traffic slid on ice coming across the crest of a hill, came across the center line, hit a tree, and swung back out into us as we tried to get around him. Obliterated the right front quadrant of the car and we ripped the trunk off his car. We'd had the car for eight days. Somehow, the car lost about 10 percent worth of its value in a week. How does that even make sense? Ultimately, we "won" because the car manufacturer bought it from us for the difference between the purchase price and what the insurance paid us. Apparently it was one of the first ones destroyed in the field.

I get that might be the "intent", but it's not what is said. And while that sounds pedantic it just bugs me that it essentially perpetuates the idea that things like depreciation are super complicated when most people are capable of at least a basic understanding. And in my experience with the general public, unfortunately too many people don't understand that something loses book value over time (even after like 5 years).

It seems pretty clear to me if you read it in the context of the first sentence, it's a statement of how it can depreciate so fast that you can't get a full replacement through your insurance in a relatively short period of time, or in other words, exactly what Sash said.

What really pisses me off about these commercials is the notion that Packers fans would shout "discount double check!" at their quarterback. If I was some lardass cheesehead and I saw Aaron Rodgers, I'd shout "Win us another Super Bowl!" or "Beat the Bears!" or "Are you sure Olivia Munn isn't a beard?"--ANYTHING but a corporate catchphrase.

What's amazing is that State Farm has successfully turned pretending to wear a championship belt in celebration into "the discount double check."
