Man Complained About Irresponsible People Queuing for McDonald’s But He Himself is 1 of Them

The Covid-19 pandemic has really taken a toll on our mental health.

I’m not talking about being cooped up at home or having our movement restricted. People have been doing some irrational, violent things to each other ever since McDonald’s closed down.

Am I looking too much into it? Perhaps. Then again, is it a coincidence that on the day before our favourite fast food store opened up, there were four bloody and vicious crimes in one day?

The next day, when McDonald’s reopened, everything seemed fine and dandy again; violent crime magically disappeared.

Is there a direct correlation between the rate of violent crime in a country and the number of McDonald’s meals eaten? I shall leave that to the experts.

One thing’s for sure though. Singaporeans love McDonald’s. That’s why queues longer than Thor’s hair formed immediately after they opened on 11 May.

Complained About Irresponsible People Queuing 

One man who was sick of these long queues took a picture of one at an undisclosed mall and shamed the insatiable fast food lovers for not staying at home during the circuit breaker.

In his post, which was posted on his Instagram stories and later uploaded to Facebook, the man says “Seriously guys can you all just stay at home or not? Never eat McDonald’s will die meh”.

He also posted two other pictures of people ordering and collecting their food, labelling them “socially irresponsible”.

It appears that this guy is sick of Singaporeans rushing to McDonald’s stores just to get their hands on some tasty food when they should be at home to avoid spreading the coronavirus.

Except… didn’t he take these pictures from the store?

And isn’t he out of his house as well? Did he really go inside a McDonald’s just to shame others for buying food from McDonald’s? Well, that’s much worse, you say.

And then he confirmed your suspicions by posting this:

The post, which shows the man holding some takeaway from McDonald’s, says “Finally after 35 mins. Would have been a lot faster is (sic) people are mature enough to stay at home”.

Obviously a Joke

Before you get your pitchforks out, which are basically harsh words and doxxing in the internet world, take a deep breath, and go through the posts again.

This is clearly a joke.

Why else would a human with a brain complain about people queueing up for McDonald’s and then post a picture of his own takeaway McDonald’s meal?

Now, is this the funniest thing I’ve seen on the internet? Not at all. This is:

But some people are so quick to get outraged that they can’t see this guy’s just trying to bring some humour into people’s lives.

Think of this as a parody of online shamers. By taking part in an activity that he is ‘shaming’ others for engaging in, he’s pointing out the inherent hypocrisy in online shaming.

We like to shame others for not wearing masks or breaking circuit breaker rules when we’ve all done the same but were lucky enough not to get caught for it.

Relax guys, he’s not one of the bad ones.
