Too Lazy To Get A Bite To Eat? Burger King Delivery



at your door steps.Burger King Delivery: Chicago, LA, San Francisco Among Cities Getting New Whopper Delivery Service.


"The Burger King brand is excited to offer them the opportunity to enjoy the food they love, delivered to them in the comfort of their home, dorm or office."

About 67% of Americans are overweight or obese. 90 million Americans are classified as obese. Smaller percentages of children are overweight and obese, but the percentages increase as the age groups get older.

Why would they make it easier for people to be more obese? They'll never leave the couch again.

Two immediate thoughts..
1. Armed robberies of delivery people will increase.
2. People using BK delivery will look like this guy..

I'm surprised it took this long to hit the US. In other countries darn near every restaurant delivers!

Common sight in Bahrain...

I'm waiting for Lowes or Home Depot delivery.

Now THAT could come in handy.

PQ: "Hello, Lowes? Ya, I got the wrong size pipe. And I just realized I am out of flux. Oh, and throw in an extra roll of Duct tape and Electrical tape. Thank you."

LOWES: "Yes sir, give us 30 minutes or less."



OMG, I'd soooooooo pay for that service. haha

Yes, but there have been times when I'd pay.

Nothing shittier than having to run BACK to the store in the middle of a project.

And me and Bonnie have always had an agreement. I don't go to the grocery store, she don't go to the hardware store. lol

Can't imagine a kid in the USA delivering on a motorbike...they would soon be road ketchup riding something like that.
Like I mentioned earlier, home delivery in the USA means an armed robbery waiting to happen.
Customs in other countries don't translate to other areas.

It's no different than pizza delivery.... And I never said they would have to be on motorcycles. It was just an example of what I experienced.

Jimmy Johns isn't close enough to where I am. I am in a dead zone of delivery. Papa Johns and other pizza are all I get, really.

Well, I thought about getting her a new 40 gallon air compressor and all new hoses for our 20th anniversary. I think she will like that.
