Talk:Never Go into an Old McDonald's/@comment-10222945-20150331131051

I was gearing up to come down here and tell you how awesome this was. And then he got to the McDonald's and the story lost its shit.

First, the parking lot covered in trash. There is no way the town would let that happen. Not only that, but the guy doesn't even notice until he's out of the car? Or are you implying that the garbage wasn't there until he got out?

I was also shaking my head at the idea that the character would be walking around expecting someone to be there at all, let alone someone to serve him, when there was a clear "closed" sign in the window.

Then we get into the place, and I'm like "wait a minute, this isn't a McDonalds in the middle of nowhere. Surely others in this town, small as it is, must have tried to come in before, or even just looked in to see it." It was just so over-the-top. If this McDonalds had been clearly condemned and was in an out-of-the-way area that people didn't go to, I'd buy it more than I did. Or, check out "Extra Ketchup" for an example of a frightening story about a restaurant that was pretty light on the gore and yet stayed with me. When you wrote about the employees doing nothing about the play place and just standing there waiting for customers, I thought maybe that was the route that you were taking.

But the set-up was great, so I'm going to say 5/10.
