It’s Back.

Yesterday was my friend Orion’s birthday. He recently introduced me to a web comic called Gunshow. A couple of my favorite strips involve one of my least favorite sandwiches: the dreaded McRib. Here are the comics:

Since the McRib is indeed back, I decided that we needed to have a McDonald’s feast for Orion’s birthday. Orion, my cousin Jon, and I dined on McRibs, french fries, and bottles of Yuengling Light. It was terrible (the beer was OK). I think the McRib actually made Orion mildly ill. Nevertheless, I think this may become a new tradition. When I was leaving my house to run this twisted errand, my wife asked what I was up to.

“I’m going to go eat McRib with Orion and Jon,” I told her.

She looked confused. “Don’t you hate the McRib?”

“Yes I do,” I replied, “but it’s back!”

So the hourglass of saucy doom has been reset. Will McRib come back next year? I hope not. If it does, you can be sure that somewhere three dudes will be consuming it begrudgingly to carry on a joke that will hopefully still be as funny to me as it is now.
