United States visualized by distance to the nearest McDonald’s

that is because most of Nevada is fucking desert

=p

also that map looks more OMG SOOOO MANY McDonalds because the dots are out of all proportion to the map (as such maps almost always are)

according to the dot size a single mcdonalds is larger than Chicago

lol there's actually just 13000 in the USA but the brightness of the dots represent how far you have to travel to get to one.

Apparantly the furthest you can be away from a Mcdonalds is 147 miles.
maddingo
maddingo on Sep 30 '09 at 12:56pm
you'd have to REEEEEEAAAAAALLLLLY want McDonalds to drive 147 miles for it... amusingly you'd probably almost certainly have to stop for lunch on the way.

there are more subway restaurants than any other restaurant in the US. I would stop at Subway for lunch on the way to McDonald's on my road trip.

McDonald's is the single largest beef buyer in America (1 Billion lbs per year), and the beef industry is inhumane, unsafe, and reprehensible.

it is cows own god damned fault for being so fucking tasty..

if cows don't like it they should get guns

Hearing about the beef industry makes me think of that one episode of Dirty Jobs with the cow rendering.

the strength of a nation is measured in how they treat their animals and poorest civilians.

i would shoot a cow in the head right now for a nice steak

i'm starving..

i'd just walk up to a cow all chillin' eating grass and shoot it the god damn head all close up and execution style... then hoist it up in the air slit it open drain out it's blood then get to skinning it and butchering some delicious steaks out of that mother fucker.
