Only 4 nuggets, and holy hell if that ain’t a joke for a drink size! BTW, that’s supposed to be sweet tea, but it’s bitter as hell…

      You only think you’re getting more. To call back a previous comment of yours,

      The burger is mostly bread. The meat patty is waifer thin.

      I honestly think there might be more meat in the 2 nuggets you lose than the patty. At most it’s an equivalent amount.

      And that doesn’t even get into ingredients and how they have and will continue to switch to cheaper ingredients without lowering prices which skews any inflation adjustments further obfuscating any true comparison.

      Edited for spelling

      In 1990, I got my first two pairs of prescription glasses for $40. Today, they quote me over $300 for my prescription, for a single pair of glasses.

      Does that add up in your fancy inflation calculator?

          You know prescriptions are only valid for a year right? Shit ain’t cheap yo.

          Edit: Gotta get a new exam and all, they can’t even legally send me new glasses with my old prescription.

            I do know this, but you don’t have to buy glasses from the eye doctor. Just get your prescription and go online. Or do a pro gamer move and get a free lasik consultation and they will give you your prescription and then don’t set up an appointment or cancel if they want you to make one. lol

              I just found my last prescription from 2021. It’s written in Greek, like literally.

          Not directly related to my original post, agreed. But related to the community in general, SHRINKFLATION

      I’d get a large strawberry milkshake, a burger that was wider, more fries, 6 nuggets, and a toy back then, so no, still getting less today.
