Sin Whoppers.
So, I became hungry and headed for the burger king drive-thru close to my house for a quick whopper-fix. When I got there and ordered my food, I had to wait a few minutes because they had to prepare my food from scratch...the way I like it. while I waited, this arab approaches my car and begs me for help. He asked me if I spoke any arabic or spanish (wtf?). Naturally, I said little and just nodded horizontally. Then he asked me if I could spare him some food for him and his family. He had been in the hospital for a couple of days and had no money, apparently. The guy was from lebanon (he had a legitimate lebanese accent, so I trusted that fact) and said his wife and kids were starving. He admitted feeling horrible having to beg for food (no money though, he didnt' want any) and then began crying in front of me. I've never had a grown man be that desperate in front of me in my life. I gave him whatever food I had and he said he would pray to allah for me.
I felt bad. I really wanted to eat those whoppers.
