•Houston McDonald's bans sagging pants
Houston Chronicle ^ | Thursday, October 3, 2013 | •Houston McDonald's bans sagging pants

Posted on 10/04/2013 3:59:30 PM PDT by Buffalo Bob

This week, the McDonald’s location at Main and Gray got some extra special attention for a sign at its side entrance imploring those sliding in for burgers and fries to pull their pants up. It’s been there for weeks but the right person must have just seen since it’s right up there next to the government shutdown in everyone’s mind.

The same sign is up at the McDonald’s at Westheimer and Kirkwood too. And hey, it looks like Happy Meals are $1.99 on Tuesdays now. I know where I’m going after happy hour.

“No one wants to see your underwear,” the sign says. It was put there by the location’s franchisee. McDonald’s corporate says that they have the right to do so and it’s not exactly against company policy, as long as corporate signs off on it.

The "author" is obviously completely clueless about McDonald's.

"Happy Meals" are for kids and have microscopic portions and apples and crap.

NOT a thing you would order after happy hour.

Houston? Full of Katrina “refugees?” Probably the McDonalds staff has been harassed and they just can’t take it anymore.

Glad they’re doing this. There are two types “pants on the ground” types here where I live: black thugs and white thugs.

Yuk. The Department of Health should ban all sagging pants in restaurants. On busses too, and every other public place. Bunch of Revoltoids wearing them should be banned from the human race.

The saggy pants crowd will be retaliating against that McD’s. Count on it. Can’t wait to hear what Sheila will have to say.

Jesse needs to get a franchise for his son for when he gets out of prison...

You’d think even some small amount of pointing and laughing could reverse this trend in a heartbeat. It’s stupid. Just point out the stupidity and should fix itself?
