French Fry Etiquette 


She left me sitting alone in McDonalds

Didn't take a bite of her Big Mac 

Or touch a single one of her French Fries    

She grabbed her Coke then walked away 

And never even looked back

I thought about eating the fries 

Although I had lost my appetite 

It wasn't because I was hurt by the drama 

She spreads ketchup on top of all of them

Instead of dipping each fry

I'm sure you know

the type 

When it comes to eating French fries 

Her method doesn't follow proper etiquette

Even though it bothered me I never said a word 

Because she gets pissed off so quickly 

And becomes 

belligerent 

I didn't understand what just happened 

It left me totally confused 

Why did she Super Size her order

If she wasn't going to eat the food

We had a date to go for dinner 

I couldn't figure out why she got upset 

I told her she looked gorgeous 

But maybe a little overdressed 

She looked surprised when we arrived 

And said McDonalds you've got to be kidding 

How insensitive of me to take her to McDonalds for dinner 

Knowing her favorite hamburger joint is Burger King
