Devilish: in order to brighten a child's life, deliberately steal resources from your corporate masters, torturing their knighted/blessed control and absolute authority over all of society.

Chaotic evil: only put it in one kids bag when there’s an order for two kids and watch them fight over it.

True Chaotic Evil:

2 extra nuggets for one kid, 1 short for the other.

Let the games begin.

[–] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

Fuck the milgram experiment i wanna watch this!

[–] ramble81@lemm.ee 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

That’s easier to rectify. The parent will just take one and give it to the other so there’s an equal amount. But with an odd number you either have to go Solomon or pick a kid, or eat it yourself and draw both their ire.

That's the kind of sacrifice I will take upon myself if it can teach my kids a lesson.

i did that all the time at my first job (Wendy's), until I learned that a single extra nugget actually really really hurts how much money the managers come home with. a devastating amount, truly.

well, they acted like it. 🙄

Then you started adding two nuggets, right?

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 13 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

That sounds like something a velociraptor would say. Sus.

As an aside, my Gboard absolutely 100% did not want me to type "velociraptor." Is Google promoting revisionist prehistory?

[–] SuDmit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Thank you for noticing, velociraptors were my favourite dinosaurs from kid's encyclopedia and I couldn't remember how they're called.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Happy to be of service!

A velociraptor would never eat or promote eating chicken, that would be like promoting, idk, eating your own cousin (the one you don't see since that last Thanksgiving, some years ago, when your uncle (their father) started talking about how dinosaurs don't exist because earth is 2000 years old, got kicked from your house and decided to cut ties).

Edit: don't use gboard, use thumb-key. Best keyboard ever (once you learn it) and easy to use single handed ~~with even less than 5 fingers~~

Please disregard that last part of the sentence, I'm not suggesting anything like having less than the usual 5 fingers a human hand has.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

I know (or at least have heard from Jurassic Park) that velociraptors were smart, but I'm not sure they'd understand evolutionary theory. Though perhaps this post disproves my theory ...

I'll look into your recommended keyboard, having the standard number of human fingers, thank you.

You don't have to encourage me, I'm already doing it

You don't have to encourage me

I put free credits in the machines at the arcade where I work because I like to see the little kids get excited when they find a machine is already loaded.

[–] problembasedperson@lemmy.dbzer0.com 26 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

First one free, make 'em come back for more.

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Never thought of it that way. I did once put $50 worth of tokens into a Jurassic Park machine that no one ever plays. Just to watch it get some love for a few hours.

Not actual money. I just went into the management screen and added the credits.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago

I've said it two times (in different ways) in this comment section, but that's a fitting username for this comment.

[–] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 46 points 13 hours ago

Sometimes people tell me "never mind" but it is too late. I have already minded.

[–] bobotron@sh.itjust.works 20 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Delightfully devilish anon

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 2 points 2 hours ago

Ho ho ho ho ho

[–] pencil_nerd@mander.xyz 18 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I used to feel SO FUCKING LUCKY to get that extra mcnugget though

[–] N0MAD@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 minutes ago

I feel equally as angry if they shorted me one.

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 12 hours ago

that stuff used to make my day, also its good for the place too because I would go there again, thinking it was more common in this shop, maybe.
