My friends Lamborghini just overheated...
 

My friend called me and said she was going to take her Diablo out for a little joyride, since the weather is so nice right now. Well, we were out enjoying all the attention when the temp started going up. We pulled into a McDonald's and the coolant was overflowing.

Now, this is not the focus of my thread. What I really want to discuss is what happened next.

We decided to go inside to let the car cool off a bit, and we wandered over to the counter to order a couple of shakes to help us cool off as well. I asked for two arctic orange shakes. It was the biggest poster in the store. NEW ARCTIC ORANGE SHAKES AND CHOCOLATE DIPPED CONES.

So, the girl working the counter pushes about 312 buttons, which seemed like a lot since I only asked for 2 orange shakes. After about 45 seconds of this, she asks me

"did you say you wanted 2 promotional shakes?".
I said "I don't know. Is the orange shake a promotional shake?"
"Yes." she replied.
"Well that's what I want." I said.

Now, I wasn't suprised that she forgot what I wanted. I mean, the entire store had two people in it, including me and my friend. So because of all the activity she probably couldn't concentrate for the entire 45 seconds. But what I don't get is why ask me if I want a promotional shake? It isn't called a promotional shake on the menu.

But the story has a happy ending, sort of. The shake was delicious...but it can only add to the fatness that is my ass.

P.S. The Lambo cooled off and we drove it back to her house. No idea of the cause for the overheating.

Are you saying you went to McDo with a Lambo ? This can't be true!

alright for some who can casually cruise in a lambo!

what a strange thread

i'm sure she had a button that said "promotional shake" on her register :)

but yea...u gotta wonder about people who take a job in fastfood to begin with

get the car fixed

what lambo is it? diablo?

I had a donkey over heat once as we went through a bank drive through... after I pressed a bunch of buttons, I got my milk shake and 1/2 quarter pounder, we watered the donkey, peeled rubber and went back to the white house.

No idea of the cause for the overheating.

We were actually on our way to a place called Cunningham's, a fish-n-chip/bar/hangout that sits along a large creek that empties into the Ohio River. Great fish. There are usually a few ferraris, porsches, etc in the lot, along with a bunch of custom bikes. It's a weird dynamic, really. And odd to see all the exotic cars, since the place isn't expensive. I mean, a fish sandwich is about $7. It's just that it's along the river and near the most affluent neighborhoods in the city.

But McD's had to do at the moment. I will admit that it looked a bit out of place next to the rusted hulk of an early eighties conversion van.

she has the same problem with her car as I do with mine; ground clearance. I drive a Viper, and it's a bitch getting into some parking lots. It can't take much of a grade or the front scrapes like a mexican lowrider. This McDonald's was a smooth entry from the road, no curb at all.

It's cuz the stupid bitch didn't know what button to push on the keypad. You should have really fucked with her and given her exact change to get just bill back... :1orglaugh

Yes, Diablo. Black.

The diablo is black. The girl is white. With red hair.(the girl)

it was a lambo honda civic

read the thread

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

This thread was a bout a shake yet the title was about a car. Hrmmm.

damn stupid me
sorry

Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery.

You see, I knew nobody would come read my rantings about the retards at McDonalds. This kind of crap happens all the time at fast food joints, not just the arches, but all of them.

It was just that on this occasion I was out with my friend and her car overheated, and her car is a dead sexy Lamborghini.

She's quite the collector of "whips". She's got:

• Diablo (as you know)
• 1966 Shelby (the real deal, not a kit)
• 1972 Ferrari Dino GT
• DeThomaso Pantera (not sure what year it is)
• brand new SL500
• Hummer (old school Hummer, not the H2)
• 1998 Viper GTS
• 2001 Viper GTS - wrecked & for sale
• Porsche 911 (maybe 1986ish?)

I know what you mean. I rarely go to fast food joints but when I do, they seem to mess up something.

Yesterday I was in another McDonald's and I asked for a "#2 with a diet coke instead of coffee". The girl crackles back through the drive through speaker "You want a (unintelligible) with a (unintelligible)?"

"I want the sausage McMuffin with egg meal with a diet coke."

"You..wha..hu...You want a sausage McMuffin?"

"I want a #2 meal with a diet coke instead of coffee."

"Oh, you want a suasage McMuffin with egg and no cheese."

"No, you can put cheese on it. The way it comes."

"You want the regular egg or the folded egg?"

"You know what, I'm going to come inside."

"You're coming inside?"

"Yeah."

McDonald's employees hear this all too often, on and off the job. :winkwink:

.....that's weird!!! is your friend was driving slow??? if yes.. I think that's the problem :winkwink:

by lamborghini you mean chevy corsica right?

I saw a blue lambo at a taco bell once. :1orglaugh

sweet collection of cars

Mcdonalds sucks, thats what you get when you hire people that dont give a crap about the job.

It is sweet, but is no where near my friend Cliff's collection. He's got 167 cars in his "garage" which is a giant building behind his house.

About 50 of those are corvettes from 1953 to 2006, plus about 20-25 mid to late 60's muscle cars.

While it's a great collection, it's kind of sad that they mostly just sit there. Hell, even if he drove a different one every day he would only drive them each twice a year!

Mostly he drives his pick up truck.

post a pic of your friend.

LOLOL :1orglaugh

Tell her to put more water in her rad

What a lame ass story.

WTF :uhoh

ouch!!!!

don't feed the donkey mexican food, how many times should I tell you?????

what is wrong about it?

i should pull out the equation that determines your life span after 2 visits in macdonalds in row

if i were you i would join the marines instead. less hazard move.

this is a special thread

What does she do for a living? i am always interested in knowing how people acquired enough money to buy such nice cars so one day I might be able to emulate them in some way.

She married a really, really rich guy that was about 20 years older than she was....and then he died. He owned some kind of chemical company.

sweet as cars!
i want a ferrari!

strange story...

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh congrats

Muahhaa. BURN

Who fucking cares.

hahahaha thats funny :thumbsup

yeah this thread is turning into a friend of a friends niece has an uncle who drives a porsche... a 924... and it broke down

No more McD's for me. I'm moving to Texas so I can hit Whataburger.

Lamborghini's make sense....
