Twitter Thread: Man Goes To McDonald's, Strange Drive Thru Adventure Ensues


Real or not, this Twitter thread about a man's strange journey through a completely bizarre McDonald's drive thru is definitely one for the books. Fast food establishments have an uncanny knack for attracting all kinds of unexpected situations in this wild universe. Sometimes it's just entitled customers that are pitch fits about a whole bunch of nothing. Other times, it's the actual employees and they're trying to sell you apple pies of McDonald's dollar menu, at a discount.

Chin - Josh Raby @JoshRaby 16h It's 1AM and I decided I wanted a milkshake. So there's a McDonald's near my house. I'm greeted at the drive thru by the following sentence: 17 2,464 3,583 Josh Raby @JoshRaby 16h "Hey holy shit hello, you are at McDonald's, and I am begging your patience." L7 640 993 Josh Raby @JoshRaby 16h There are no other cars here, by the way. I'm caught off guard so l mumble "Um, ok you can have it." The voice comes back: "Praise you."

I realize I did not describe my desired milkshake in any way so I yell "I need to tell you what kind." 17 459 630 Josh Raby @JoshRaby 16h He is gone for several minutes. When he returns he says flatly "we aren't going to be able to do the milkshake. I do have many apple pies."

"Dude I lost my wife". 17 527 724 Josh Raby @JoshRaby 16h "I'm sorry, man, I-" "Please describe your chicken sandwich to me again so I can succeed at one thing." 17 505 756 Josh Raby @JoshRaby 16h Anyway he finally gets it and then says "I really do feel bad about the milkshake situation. Can I sell you an apple pie?"

"Ok, thanks" t다 458 631 Josh Raby @JoshRaby 16h Then there is a weird series of beeps and when his voice comes back in he is fucking SCREAMING into his headset: "I FOUND HER!
