I could speak this in a burp

[passedpawn]

In the late 70's my best bud and I learned to speak while belching. We'd gulp air til we couldn't get anymore in, then use our diaphragm to push that air out of our stomachs while speaking.

At that time, McDonalds had some sort of deal where if you could recite a specific phrase, you'd get a free sandwich (or discounted).

"Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun". Randy Dinkens and I walked into McD's and belched that. Winning.

Anyway, the following article made me remember that:

Creator of McDonald's Big Mac dies at 98

We used to do that! Same phrase and everything!

I still burp with small phrases, but I don't gulp air like I did when I was a kid. Actually, I just tried it a little bit and it seems to be working fine. I should entertain the family with this trick tonight...

Speaking of McD's, remember when everyone was hanging McDonald's gift booklets on the Christmas tree?

I don't swallow air anymore, mostly because now that my body is old, it's finally showing me that I am not unbreakable as I thought when I was young. I'm afraid if I swallow air I'll break something

The only thing I say when burping is the word "burp". I find it funny to actually say that while letting one rip. Funny to me, anyhoo.

Those were the days when chicken nuggets were actually made from "mechanically-separated chicken". They don't do that anymore. That's where heat and pressure were used to force all chicken bits through small holes, which removed the beak and claws and other inedibles. The resulting pap could then be reshaped in molds to take on any shape. The chicken "meat" had an interesting spongey consistency. Yech.

You two are such guys. Even if I could do that (and I'm not saying I can), I wouldn't talk about it on the internet.

however, I can "play" Jingle Bells with my armpit.

I still always say something when I burp. "Burp" is one of them. I don't even think about it anymore. Just the other day I did it and someone said, "Did you just say 'burp' with a burp??" They thought it was meta (or something...)

My dad used to do it. He'd often say, "Rip, Ralph, Really" for some reason. I do that, but also do "Ribbit".

Of course, this is when I'm not trying to be discrete.

Still working on vocalizing my flatulence.

"Bun seed sesame a on onions, pickles, cheese, lettuce, sauce special, patties beef all two" just typed that from memory. Around here reciting it backwards was the big thing. The things that stick in your head.

My favorite McDonald's memory was the 1984 Olympics "win free food when US wins medals" promotion:
http://www.nytimes.com/1984/08/10/business/advertising-big-mac-s-olympic-giveaway.html

Me and my friends were young teens. My older brother worked at the local McD's and would bring home the scratcher cards for us by the boxful. The US won virtually every medal because of the Soviet boycott. And there was no "can only redeem one prize at a time" rule--or at least, no one was enforcing it.

So my buddies and I pigged out on all the free McD's Big Macs, fries and pop we could ever want all summer long. Hell, the scratcher cards were so virtually guaranteed to be worth free food and we had such a supply, we were even using them like money with the kids around the neighborhood, trading for stolen liquor, smokes and, uh, similar items.

I may have even traded a handful of Big Mac cards for my first non-solo sexual experience with my friend's older sister's friend Candi. Or did I trade liquor that I earned from the cards? Details are fuzzy...but I was lovin' it. Can't remember if she burped.

Ah, good times. Good times.

Yep, remember that well. I was eating those chicken nuggets for free about every day with the olympics scratchoffs too. Don't remember any of them saying pooty under the ruboff though. I'd have been all over that.

This was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thread title. Watched this movie way too much when I was younger.
