Ceral at midnight, pizza at dawn, staying awake with coke and coffee. That’s what my life’s gonna be when I move out in two months. And no one to tell me to go sleep at 2am because I got work the next day!
Um… don’t know where you’ve been. During my church’s Christmas Undecorating party on New Year’s Eve, someone brought a box of 50 in for the refreshments afterwards (we had lots of other stuff too). The 5 boxes of 10 must be for when they run out of the bigger boxes.
As a current McSlave, I will state that under normal circumstances, at least in the Dayton Ohio area, the 50 piece is always available and normally in it’s on special crate. We’ll do two 20’s and a 10 if we run out of those, though.
You would not BELIVE how many nuggets we make each night!
So according to the McDonalds in my area (south Florida), they’re starting the 50 McNuggets deal this Sunday. I guess my McDonalds runs slightly behind DOA time?
Reepicheep-chan, having worked for Tyson, I’ve seen the quality control they put out. Also, if you don’t like Tyson, there’s several things you must swear off of, including pretty much any meat toppings on your pizzas (delivery or otherwise) and Subway. Tyson, after they acquired IBP, produces more pounds of meat than crotches Mike’s kicked (both on and off panel).
Walky’s head would asplode as he was forced to make the tough decision between hoarding the McNuggets and whipping them at Dorothy (being that his love-numbed brain can’t come up with the idea to ask her to join him in his slow, delicious suicide).
I don’t think they know each other, at least not well. However, living in the same dorm can make you a little more willing to be sociable. Besides, it’s not like Joe would ever pass up a chance to brag.
I haven’t had anything from McDonalds in years, but the sudden combination of attractive deals, taste nostalgia, and Walky’s enraptured expressions makes me want to head over there at the earliest opportunity and gorge myself on as many McNuggets as I can carry, knowing full well how unhealthy and irresponsible that is. You should be in advertising, Willis.
I’m incredibly excited about the prospect of 50 McNuggets. I cannot relate to Joe in the slightest. What’s with that raised eyebrow? What part of 50 McNuggets isn’t getting through to him?
McDonalds hasn’t used styrofoam in the U.S. in over a decade. Back when the first “environmental scare” movement happened, shortly after the McDLT (which kept the hot side hot and the cool side cool until you put them together), Pretty much every fast food place switched from styrofoam which takes a real long time to degrade, to wrappers and other containers which also take a long time to degrade, but don’t add as much pollutants to the air when they’re burned.
I don’t think I’ve ever personally issued a Damn You, Willis before, despite all that has transpired in the past, but seeing this after my local McDonald’s is probably well past closed, and when I’d have to get dressed and go out in the cold to even check? Damn You, Willis. Damn you.
I haven’t eaten at Macdonald’s in at least 5 or 6 years, but I distinctly remember their chicken nuggets being way, way more delicious then any other chicken nugget I’ve ever eaten. If this is happening, I want in.
you can do your own nuggets:butter roasted chicken (from a farm where they are allowed to grow a beek and to run free), salt, pepper, eggs, wheat and bread. And a bit oil. But I can conceive that with just a few ingredient more (parma, schwarzwälder, serrano, bayonne or vendée ham; mozzarella, gorgonzola, emmental, gruyère, munster, corsù vecchiù or comté) you can make delicious cordon bleu chicken, why not with a mushroom/garlic sauce. Fuck, I’m hungry now.
ten homemade nuggets boxes would cost far below ten bucks.
ten times special recipe would depend of where you live and what you choose to put in them. I’d go for 6 bucks each with fresh products.
Sadly enough, I read this comic at about 1 in the morning, got hungry, and remembered my McDonalds is open 24 hours a day, so went and bought a 50 piece McNugget’s. Oh, and some fries XD
Wait…that’s 20 cents per…The 10/$1.99 dealie is a slightly better deal, at .199 per…not a lot in the fifty range (you’d save a whopping five cents), but if you’re buying for parties, where you’ll want a platter of, say, 200-400, the 10/$1.99 is better.
Also Joe must have anorexia or something to deny the awesome power of chicken nuggets. Perhaps he prefers Chik-Fil-A? I know I do.
So if Walky is not alien-modified here, it means he can actually put on weight from junk food right? Hoping to see a super-sized Walkerton after another few years of reading 😉
But he might be young enough and have that metabolism so that he eats all he wants and never gains weight. I was like that until I was 25. And a friend of mine is 30 and STILL hasn’t gained any weight despite eating healthy portions.
I am not too fond of chicken, but with around 40ºC around here, I don’t dare cooking my own food, so fast food seems like a good choice now that I’m hungry…
Nugget-wise, the nearest Chick-Fil-A is over an hour away to me, the nearest McDonalds is 2 minutes away, and Wendys is 3 minutes away. Going to a grocery store and getting Tyson nuggets is just about the same amount as Wendys, so it’s all whether I feel like cooking them or not.
The chicken’s nothing spectacular (after all, it’s fast food), but I do love their dipping sauce. Also, birthday cake milkshake during their birthday celebration. Yum.
I’ve had the misfortune of eating at mickey d’s again after many years. Unreasonable bastards first came up with their damned sweet&sour sauce (which I’ve actually used to make glazed chicken with… bastards) and apparently now there’s a buffalo sauce.
And it’s unreasonably good. While I make my own, as well as the nuggets, there’s just something so insidious about walking 5 blocks up the street and getting it already made for $10.
it’s the msg in it speaking, literally it’s an all natural salt type thing, so they can just pawn it off as recipe, it makes it hopelessly addictive and makes it taste good, like most things it also actively tries to kill you on a regular basis. my sister can’t have fast food or it metaphorically turns her stomach into a monster.
Well I don’t know about your area, but my sister reports that the McDonaldses in our area (near Philly) stopped selling it soon after she and her horde of friends started showing up and ordering it and other things on a daily basis. Her best guess is that it was because it would put any one person eating it at a massive risk for heart attack.
My theory is that she and her Mongol Hordes were in danger of eating McDonald’s out of business.

As an experiment, I’ve erased one line on Walky’s face to make him seem depressed according to Depression Comix convention, where a wrinkle under a character’s right eye signals depression. Can you see the crushed soul under that smile?
yay, 50 pieces of utterly bland mediocre chicken relies entirely on an included condiment for anything resembling a flavor. If you don’t like condiments then fuck you.
WITH MY PENIS.
Er.
That is a great deal! Where can I get that many for that much?!
McDonalds.
OKay, When?
Generally during major football games, whether national or regional.
That was always my favourite part about growing up: I can eat I want when I want… if I have the money for it.
Ceral at midnight, pizza at dawn, staying awake with coke and coffee. That’s what my life’s gonna be when I move out in two months. And no one to tell me to go sleep at 2am because I got work the next day!
NITPICK
the 50 mcnuggets come in five boxes marked for 10 each, not one for 50. Furthermore, that box he’s holding is at least half the size it should be.
/NITPICK
That’s not true. They also came in a bucket.
oh.
nitpick revoked then.
Also, I’m hungry…
Yep, box of 50 for me.
Shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up!!! You’re making me hungry too!! ;_;
I wish they sold mcnuggets in the form of the pink paste they’re made of… it’d be like chicken-y toothpaste.
Um… don’t know where you’ve been. During my church’s Christmas Undecorating party on New Year’s Eve, someone brought a box of 50 in for the refreshments afterwards (we had lots of other stuff too). The 5 boxes of 10 must be for when they run out of the bigger boxes.

You would not BELIVE how many nuggets we make each night!
FIFTY.
20 cents a piece… equivalent to four moms to Mike.
Wait is this really happening? BRB, off to undo two weeks of relatively healthy eating
Well, it was happening when I drew this particular strip over a month ago, anyway.
Better get ’em while you still can!

So according to the McDonalds in my area (south Florida), they’re starting the 50 McNuggets deal this Sunday. I guess my McDonalds runs slightly behind DOA time?
Poor Joe. I think he’s jealous. That’s what the look in the last panel is, right? Jealousy?
I think it’s more, “Dude, are you serious?”
Meanwhile, Walky kinda looks a little possessed. Not as scary as his “pretty girl” persona, but close. Does this make McNuggets his Nachitoes?
50 Heart attacks. Awwww yeah.
You realize that McDonalds gets the McNuggets from Tyson, always have… or are you referring to McDonalds’ propensity to deep fry stuff?
Is that supposed to be an endorsement? Because Tyson is effing disgusting.
Reepicheep-chan, having worked for Tyson, I’ve seen the quality control they put out. Also, if you don’t like Tyson, there’s several things you must swear off of, including pretty much any meat toppings on your pizzas (delivery or otherwise) and Subway. Tyson, after they acquired IBP, produces more pounds of meat than crotches Mike’s kicked (both on and off panel).
“Tyson, after they acquired IBP, produces more pounds of meat than crotches Mike’s kicked”
That’s a really disturbing choice of comparisons…
The Chicken Tenders at Target are also Tyson.
Mmmmmmm… McNuggets *drools*
Let’s just hope that Dorothy doesn’t walk by while those McNuggets are still hot…
“I give it to you” *toss*
“What? AAA! My face! FAAACE!”
“With my penis”
No can do, Leslie.
that would have looked SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better with a mike gravatar. but with Leslie being a lesbian, it’s just as funny to me xD
Walky’s head would asplode as he was forced to make the tough decision between hoarding the McNuggets and whipping them at Dorothy (being that his love-numbed brain can’t come up with the idea to ask her to join him in his slow, delicious suicide).
i love the look on his face in the 3rd panel, it looks like he is getting moar joy from that then he ever got from nachitos
Well, this IS an alternate universe… maybe they don’t have nachitos?!
I just thought of something, while this is an alternate universe, wouldn’t the Cheese still exist?
if there are alternate universes, there must be infinite with nachitos, and infinite without. i’m disappointed that my reality is one without nachitos
Nope, the Cheese exists in many universes, but Willis never claimed it existed in every universe.
Maybe The Cheese exists a Dexter and Monkey Master character.
I’m officially jealous. I wish my night involved fifty mcnuggets.
The ten buck deal’s still going on, from what I saw Sunday. Also, ten nuggets for 1.99.
MY LIFE IS COMPLETE*.
*not really, no, but I’m damn happy.
Joe’s SEMME shirt!
WHY AM I A GIRL!?
Because you didn’t take a Y chromosome when you had the chance.
cause you didn’t get rid of that fourth line in your x chromosome while you had the chance…oh, I got beat to it by a considerable amount
FIDDY.
Wait… do Joe and Walky know each other?
I don’t think McDonalds still has their green apple sauce for McNuggets… man you make me crave some pretty unhealthy food >< damn you walky!
They had Gender Studies together.
I don’t think they know each other, at least not well. However, living in the same dorm can make you a little more willing to be sociable. Besides, it’s not like Joe would ever pass up a chance to brag.
“Also, Walky, did you know that in an alternate universe, the chick I’m dating (with my penis) is your wife?”
Also I hope Walky goes to see his sister and end up sharing his McNuggets with Billie!
I want more Billie!
+1
Whether it’s them denying their mutual crush or whether it’s Billie being cynical and self-centered alone I want more Billie!
I have the sudden urge to drop everything I’m doing, transform into a car, and drive out of the house to McDonalds to order FIFTY MCNUGGETS.
You’re Turbo Teen?!
I want more Sal. She was in like 7 strips and then disappeared again.
Also, Joe and Walky were both in Leslie’s gender studies class.
McNuggets just haven’t been the same for me since they witched to an all-white-meat recipe. 🙁
So, are McNuggets the new Nachitos?
Sonuvabongo, we only get 20 for $5.99 here.
Psh, 4.99 here.
I haven’t had anything from McDonalds in years, but the sudden combination of attractive deals, taste nostalgia, and Walky’s enraptured expressions makes me want to head over there at the earliest opportunity and gorge myself on as many McNuggets as I can carry, knowing full well how unhealthy and irresponsible that is. You should be in advertising, Willis.
Needs more Billie, I agree. But McNuggets are fine too.
Oh. God. Help. Me. If they take this deal to Washington STate there will be DEATH!!!! >.<
…Also much nibbling of processed chikengoopies.
I’m incredibly excited about the prospect of 50 McNuggets. I cannot relate to Joe in the slightest. What’s with that raised eyebrow? What part of 50 McNuggets isn’t getting through to him?
Your values are not my values.
Ah, Walky just realized that he can eat whatever he wants and his parents can’t say boo. Freshman 15 here we come.
DOA sponsered to you today by McDonald’s! Dadadadada Walky’s lovin it….
Huh. For ten bucks, I would’ve expected a larger box of styrofoam.
McDonalds hasn’t used styrofoam in the U.S. in over a decade. Back when the first “environmental scare” movement happened, shortly after the McDLT (which kept the hot side hot and the cool side cool until you put them together), Pretty much every fast food place switched from styrofoam which takes a real long time to degrade, to wrappers and other containers which also take a long time to degrade, but don’t add as much pollutants to the air when they’re burned.
I assumed “styrofoam” referred to the McNuggets.
That was the joke, yes.
NEED.
I don’t think I’ve ever personally issued a Damn You, Willis before, despite all that has transpired in the past, but seeing this after my local McDonald’s is probably well past closed, and when I’d have to get dressed and go out in the cold to even check? Damn You, Willis. Damn you.
Fifty McNuggets for ten bucks. Your argument is invalid.
(I’m so totally tempted to actually make a demotivational thingie with that <_<)
DO IT.
Seconded!
The simple joys of McNuggets. God, I wish I were as simple as Walky.
Walky’s face in the third panel needs to be a comment avatar.
I haven’t eaten at Macdonald’s in at least 5 or 6 years, but I distinctly remember their chicken nuggets being way, way more delicious then any other chicken nugget I’ve ever eaten. If this is happening, I want in.
It’s all personal preference. I prefer Wendy’s nuggets.
FIFTY MCNUGGETS in his FAAAACE!!!
Walky is going to eat 50 McNuggets. That’s as many as five tens. And that’s
terribleawesome.I see what you did there. 🙂
Suddenly the 10 McNuggets I had yesterday doesn’t seem like enough. I need another 40.
One time during my Freshman year I drove for 20 minutes to get to a Dairy Queen.
This is pretty much what college is like.
Joe’s chick doesn’t come in McNuggets! He’s missing out!
ewwwww
That can be fixed.
A 50 pack of McNuggets that comes with a cute girl?
Now that’s a Happy Meal.
Looks like a bargain, but I wouldn’t eat all that in one sitting. Maybe half of it. 😛
Ever since I saw a documentary on how they were made as a child I haven’t been able to look at Chicken Nuggets, McDonald’s brand or not, bleeeeh.
Still, good for Walky I guess.
you can do your own nuggets:butter roasted chicken (from a farm where they are allowed to grow a beek and to run free), salt, pepper, eggs, wheat and bread. And a bit oil. But I can conceive that with just a few ingredient more (parma, schwarzwälder, serrano, bayonne or vendée ham; mozzarella, gorgonzola, emmental, gruyère, munster, corsù vecchiù or comté) you can make delicious cordon bleu chicken, why not with a mushroom/garlic sauce. Fuck, I’m hungry now.
Can I get ten of those for ten bucks?
ten homemade nuggets boxes would cost far below ten bucks.
ten times special recipe would depend of where you live and what you choose to put in them. I’d go for 6 bucks each with fresh products.
Well I was stuck with not knowing what to have for lunch today anyway so…!
Yeah. Hello 9 piece.
It would be funny if just for today there was a slight spike in McD chicken nugget sales because of this.
It’s probably bad that I’ve felt the same way about the 50 nuggets ever since the deal started.
… Although, then again…
Sadly enough, I read this comic at about 1 in the morning, got hungry, and remembered my McDonalds is open 24 hours a day, so went and bought a 50 piece McNugget’s. Oh, and some fries XD
Wait.. what? You can get 50? For $10?
But it costs like $5 for 10. Maybe. I don’t know. I haven’t had McDonald’s in a couple of years.
We probably don’t get that here, although that might be a good thing.
Man, I used to love those things. Burned out on them.
Wait…that’s 20 cents per…The 10/$1.99 dealie is a slightly better deal, at .199 per…not a lot in the fifty range (you’d save a whopping five cents), but if you’re buying for parties, where you’ll want a platter of, say, 200-400, the 10/$1.99 is better.
Also Joe must have anorexia or something to deny the awesome power of chicken nuggets. Perhaps he prefers Chik-Fil-A? I know I do.
What a coincidence! I just so happen to have ordered a hundred nuggets last night with two friends.
So if Walky is not alien-modified here, it means he can actually put on weight from junk food right? Hoping to see a super-sized Walkerton after another few years of reading 😉
But he might be young enough and have that metabolism so that he eats all he wants and never gains weight. I was like that until I was 25. And a friend of mine is 30 and STILL hasn’t gained any weight despite eating healthy portions.
Hear that? Those are arteries crackling as they fill with globules of solidified fat.
For Walky, food is like sex.
For a lot of people, food is like sex. Why do you think there are so many fat people?
For me, sex is like food.
For vorephiles (arousal from eating/being eaten by someone), sex IS food. Same goes for sitophiles (arousal from food).
I am a college freshman and I have had that exact moment. FIFTY. MCNUGGETS. Turns out I can eat them in one sitting, too.
This has been a paid advertisement. Inquire within.
oh boy! why do i live in the third world?! i want 50 mcnuggets NOW! =´(
I am not too fond of chicken, but with around 40ºC around here, I don’t dare cooking my own food, so fast food seems like a good choice now that I’m hungry…
Edible object + deep fat fryer = Tasty Meal. I’m not fond of eating a whole onion, but bloomin onions are fantastic!
I would need about a dozen of their little tubs of barbecue sauce to go with the Mcnuggets.
PS – Al the Mighty: I know how hot dogs are made too… doesn’t stop me from eating them. 🙂
Probably can’t even get the chicken that need to be de-beaked when they’re killed for 10 bucks
Now if you could make that BK chicken tenders I’d be sold.
Why settle for a McNugget when you could have Chic-fil-a Chicken Nuggets? Unless it is Sunday, then you could just get Zax Snax at Zaxbys.
Nugget-wise, the nearest Chick-Fil-A is over an hour away to me, the nearest McDonalds is 2 minutes away, and Wendys is 3 minutes away. Going to a grocery store and getting Tyson nuggets is just about the same amount as Wendys, so it’s all whether I feel like cooking them or not.
What on earth is a Zaxbys?
Yet another chicken chain. http://www.zaxbys.com
The chicken’s nothing spectacular (after all, it’s fast food), but I do love their dipping sauce. Also, birthday cake milkshake during their birthday celebration. Yum.
I WAN FIDDY NUGS.
Also, family meal deal is 50 nugs, two large fries and two drinks for fifteen dollars.
%0 nuggets? The most I seen on offer at Maccas is 20 nuggets.
That’s……a lot of McNuggets, Walky.
Hahaha my boyfriend is JUST like this!! I died laughing when I first read this. He flips out when they’re out of the sweet and sour sauce. XD
I’ve had the misfortune of eating at mickey d’s again after many years. Unreasonable bastards first came up with their damned sweet&sour sauce (which I’ve actually used to make glazed chicken with… bastards) and apparently now there’s a buffalo sauce.
And it’s unreasonably good. While I make my own, as well as the nuggets, there’s just something so insidious about walking 5 blocks up the street and getting it already made for $10.
Bastards. Tasty, Tasty Bastards.
it’s the msg in it speaking, literally it’s an all natural salt type thing, so they can just pawn it off as recipe, it makes it hopelessly addictive and makes it taste good, like most things it also actively tries to kill you on a regular basis. my sister can’t have fast food or it metaphorically turns her stomach into a monster.
Man, I would SO gorge on that if they hadn’t canned the 50 spot for health reasons.
{{citation needed}}
Well I don’t know about your area, but my sister reports that the McDonaldses in our area (near Philly) stopped selling it soon after she and her horde of friends started showing up and ordering it and other things on a daily basis. Her best guess is that it was because it would put any one person eating it at a massive risk for heart attack.
My theory is that she and her Mongol Hordes were in danger of eating McDonald’s out of business.
Here they only have them on big game weekends.
Also, I’m kinda honored to get reply’d by the writer. Thanks David!
And thanks to that creepy Walky smile, Aizen no longer scares me.

As an experiment, I’ve erased one line on Walky’s face to make him seem depressed according to Depression Comix convention, where a wrinkle under a character’s right eye signals depression. Can you see the crushed soul under that smile?
Now I want Mcnuggets…
yay, 50 pieces of utterly bland mediocre chicken relies entirely on an included condiment for anything resembling a flavor. If you don’t like condiments then fuck you.
