There went my luck for the day.
Pulled into the McDonalds parking lot around eleven.
Now, I stay away from the Arches. Life is too short, I think, to eat crappy food, but once in a very great while, I’ll treat myself to a quarter pounder. About once every two months is usually enough, and then only if I KNOW the fries have JUST been dropped- cold fries make the whole meal inedible.
SO i ordered the #3 meal, handed the girl my card, and the computers went down.
“Sorry!” I said, I don’t have any cash”.
“It’s already being made. Take it on us”. Now, that, as Jules said, was a tasty burger! but having gotten my free lunch (Yeah, I know, tanstaafl) I figure I’ve used up my luck for the day, and bigger’n shit, no deer accompanied me home.
I did SEE a deer, and it was almost where I could shoot it! Damned thing stood there on the other side of a fence I can’t shoot across, and I waited and waited as it drew ever nearer, and then some fucktard in a car STOPPED AND WAVED AT THE DEER, which proceeded to head for the hills.
Oh, well, that’s why they call it “hunting” and not “getting”

Congratulations on the self control to not shoot the waver.
That annoying desire to be safe and not intentionally hurt someone always comes into play at the wrong time.
Yep, I’d already had the waver at the taxidermist by now.
Good job.
OMG! Sorry bout that Og. Gotta hate people like that. If there is justice – the waver will hit a deer with his car on the way home.
