Hold on a minute Xng.
Are you really hurt or just trying to argue? But I suspect you like arguing a lot :-)

Youīre all heading to KTFC, McD, BK or whatever because itīs gotta be quick.
Letīs look at the sentence, 1st part:
Youīre all
Why does "YOU" only include Americans, Xng? Is this forum just for Americans? Arenīt there a couple of Europeans, Asians, Australians, maybe even Africans participating? Maybe someone from Antarctica and other remote places as well (forgive me if I didnīt mention your place/planet/system here)?
If someone from your country/continent would have written this sentence, then it would have been poignant sarcasm, right? But if someone like me, from Europe, wrote it - then of course itīs gotta be bad ("bad, bad boi!"), right? *giggling*
Letīs look at the sentence, 2nd part:
heading to KTFC, McD, BK or whatever
Weīve got KTFC, McD and BK and lots of other franchise companies here in Europe as well. Actually I wanted to add some European names as well, but then dropped them, as you probably wouldnīt have recognized them. The word "whatever" should make it clear, that I didnīt mean just American companies. Mmmkay?
Xng, how come you think I was refering exclusively to your country?
