the power corporations have over society

story time:

while playing video games, three friends of mine decided that burger king sounded like a great idea. or, rather, the prego lady decided that she needed burger king or there would be bloody bodies strewn about.

so she and an escort went off to the nearest one, 15 miles away, leaving her man to continue playing video games. 15 minutes later, the friend left behind to shoot aliens in halo realized how hungry he was and how great the chicken club sandwiches coming his way sounded. and proceeded to get a little chub.

and that's all he could think about until they returned and by then, there was no hiding.
