Quick Side-project: The Millenial Lie about McDonald's
Howdy! This is some experimental "short-form" content I've been considering trying lately in between regular videos. After this video, I've run into a little snag on "AI is Incompetent - 3 ways to break it" video which I felt may be morally compromising. In a few days I'll release the video to you first and get your opinion before I release it to the public 🙂 Thank you so much for your support this March.
Real life news: I've struggled with my energy a little this month after some bad family news and I'm trying to get my mental energy/creativity back this March. My anxiety has been up and down. But I'm also training for my yearly Brisbane Trail Marathon which always cheers me up. Wish me luck this year!

I go to Mickey D's on occasion, they have good chicken strips and nuggets but I never really ate their burgers. Really miss the Mighty Wings though, now those were good.
I felt mighty wings were very reasonably priced too!
I remember as a kid, I would regularly go to McDonalds. But I think around 8 or so, I repeatedly keep getting sick from eating there. My parents saw this and we promptly never ate McDonalds again. Which is for the best really. I prefer Wendy’s over McDonalds or Burger King any day. Not gonna act like it’s super healthy, I mean the Baconader is like over 900 calories. But the quality is a step above the D tier slop meat McDonalds uses.
I'm barley going to the MC Donalds these day's as i don't get as much sauce on my burgers as i used to 😅. If i get fastfood i might go to Burger King instead as it taste slightly better to me and i at least but i try to eat sightly more healthy these day's. I'm still not the best at it but i'm doing much better then i did a few years ago 😀.
"Millennial" that remembers when we were called "Generation Why?" (as in both "Gen Y" to continute from "Gen X" and before Gen Z came on the scene, and "Gen Why?" as in "Why are things the way they are and what can we do about it?"); I've slowly stopped going to Maccas over the years as prices rise and the Large Meal Deals are the only ones that make sense any more (No ice in the soft drink!).
Convenience is too powerful.
As a Millennial (born in 1982), I have gone to McDonald's less over the years. When I do go, I usually just get one of the 3 Meal Deals since the highest price is $7. Also, I usually go to the same locations since I know the service and food has been better than other locations. However, I try to eat at home a lot more if I can to avoid my massive debt getting higher (and to eat healthier, of course).
I'm in a weird place, being born in 1982. I've seen I'm Millennial, an Xennial, or just on the cusp of Gen X. I can't seem to find a consistent consensus. I digress though, regarding McDonalds, I try to avoid it as part of my ongoing fitness journey however I do let myself have it during my birthday month of December. I let myself have the Steak and Egg Bagel on Fridays for breakfast. I really like the MM McFlurry but I couldn't get that if I wanted due to the ice cream machines "always being down." It's honestly not that cheap anymore. My husband works late as a road safety guy and used to be able to get an unsweet iced tea and a couple of chicken sandwiches for less than five dollars but now it's like $10 he says.
McDonald's is one of the only places Dalton will eat more than just a grilled cheese. Lol. I try not to go a lot though. It is definitely more expensive than it used to be. Also I have had food there when it just doesn't taste right and makes me sad.
Dalton has good taste 😄 Grilled cheese sandwich with tomato is Nin and my favourite when we visit too lol
Eh, as a worker there, gotta make do with what you got
