First, regarding the timbits: that's way more than 20 and a hell of a "snack"!

Second, fastcars I'm just saying that you take too much offense and read too much into a lot of things. For instance, the fat lazy comment was, when I read it, a funny joke. A satire on the bottom line of drive throughs - the fact that they are 100% about convenience. And additionally, i interpret the comment to be a blanket statement that covers everyone, including the original poster himself. That's what makes it funny. It would be self righteous if his comment were more like "good thing everyone else in this country is a fat slob except me".

Additionally, you didn't ask ME to find a time you were self righteous since that request happened way before I even partook in this discussion. I never specifically accused you of self righteousness. This is a perfect example of you taking things too personally. I do not think that you, personally are self righteous so I'm not interested in trying to find an example of it.

My comments about self righteousness aspects of defending drive throughs are just general observations. My comments about looking up studies are done in a joking manner because earlier in the thread someone brought up a question about looking up studies. They aren't meant to be condescending. This is why I think you are taking things too seriously :-p

And finally, I don't have to stop using drive throughs until I start actually chastising people for their use of them. I did not tell anyone they should stop using them. I only support a law that prevents them from existing, forcing us all to not use them for the good of the community. If I were a smoker, and I supported a ban on cigarettes forcing me and all others to stop smoking, it's not hypocritical. If I was a smoker and I told other smokers to stop while I continued, then it would be....

In conclusion, I hope that drive throughs are banned :-)
