So, as he puffs a lot, he's now called The Puffer. i.e. come on The Puffer. (We still use Elliott as well, so to not confuse him )
I've never eaten there.I've only eaten at a McDonald's once, in 1986 or '87, when myself and some of my fellow students were on an exchange trip to St. John's, Newfoundland.
Neither my hometown, nor any of the few nearby towns, had any of the major chain restaurants, but of course we were always seeing 'em on TV commercials...anyways...long story short, as a kid whose diet consisted of about 75% wild meat and fish, I just about puked when I sat down and tried McD's...never had it again...I'm sure I'd be fine with it now, but I find it kind of cool/take some pride in the fact that I've only eaten there once, and I don't want to break my streak...
In the 80s I had a thick shake from there.... didn't finish it, so it sat in my lounge room overnight. Next day it was flakes....
Never had another nor anything else from em.

After many years of practice, my chopstick skills are still rather poor.
But I’m not giving up yet!

Woo hoo!! We just found €250 stashed away in the house! Score!
I have a wart growing on my left nostril that's driving me mad. Spending hours every day for months trying to kill it all away, the Dermatologist even took a couple of shots at it, but it persists.

I can’t believe I paid all that money to that guy so he could knife me in the gums. 
Tell me about it, I have to pay a guy a thousand bucks to shove a video camera up there. )*( some good drugs will be required!I can’t believe I paid all that money to that guy so he could knife me in the gums.
Went back to the Dermo to get it frozen off again - well, it's not a wart anymore. Now it's a seborrheic keratoses. Well well, no wonder wart treatment was too slow. Good news is it's not infectious, can't be spread by touching. Bad news is it likely won't ever go away completely, so I can either let it disfigure my face or fight it for the rest of my life. Going to give fighting a try. Looked up current treatments, they say 40% Hydrogen Peroxide works, but my doc doesn't do that because it's not covered by insurance. Well, I happened to have some food grade 35% H2O2 in the freezer for long forgotten reasons, figured I'd give it a try - sizzle frizzle frazzle pop - the stuff seems to work. Stings more than a bit, but this is WAR! I may have overdone it, it might leave a scar, but that's better than having this active lesion eating half my nose..
TMI and not for the squeamish:
