There are very few other joys in life than the moment you open up a fresh sausage and egg McMuffin from McDonald’s. Of course, the joy only lasts for a moment since minutes after ingesting such deliciousness the bubble guts kick in to really start your day. And one such individual from Leyland, Lancashire in jolly ol’ England clearly enjoys the warm mix of processed cheese and questionable breakfast meat so much that he waited in a drive-thru for two hours because he refused to leave until his order was fulfilled.
According to Yahoo! News Stuart Yates, a man who probably has the words “I’m Lovin’ It” tatted on his belly, was not here for the instructions he was given after placing his order. He pulled into a local McDonald’s and ordered two double sausage and egg McMuffins, but instead of pulling off to the side to wait fifteen minutes for his food, Stuart chose to die on the hill of hunger while awaiting his treasured sandwiches in the drive-thru. You see, Stu The Foodie had encountered issues previously and was not going to be a fool for a second time. He knew then and there that it was time to stand up for his right to order an artery-clogging meal destined to show up in his upcoming cholesterol tests. After being offered a refund for his food the workers chose violence that day and let Stuart know they didn’t care about his order, or him.
“A lad spotted me and said, ‘Oh, it’s him again’, because last time I complained. They said ‘Go and wait in the car park’. I said, ‘I’m not going anywhere until I get my food’.
“A girl came out and threw my money and change on to my car roof and said, ‘Leave or I’m calling the police’.
“I said, ‘I’m going nowhere until I’ve had my money put back on my card’. It’s not a big ask, surely.”

As someone who deals with the public on a weekly basis, I’m glad I don’t work at that Mcdonald’s. Because I would have brought Stu The Fool a bag with all the ingredients and thrown it in his face while singing “Ba- Da- Ba-Ba-BAHHHH” before walking off with both middle fingers up. Sir, it is really not that serious. And even though he claims the sandwiches were for his son and a friend, no one gets this worked up over food they plan on sharing. Eventually, the staff grew tired of Stu’s sour mood and called the police to address the situation.
After threatening to stay there “all week” if necessary, he blocked the drive-thru for two hours until police arrived.
Yates said: “I said I’m not moving, I’m well within my rights asking for a refund to be put back on to my card.
“They eventually gave me a refund and tried passing me a long letter they had typed out, but I refused to accept it.
“I hadn’t sworn, I hadn’t done anything threatening. I hadn’t broken any laws.”
Unfortunately for Moody Stewy, all of this proved futile since the police asked him to leave and he ended up with a personal Un-Happy Meal filled with no sandwiches and regret. These are first-world problems people. Did this guy really post up in a drive-thru over a sandwich? Check your priorities at the door, Stu. Because you could have just as easily found another Mcdonald’s around the corner. Looking for other fast food options ain’t exactly rocket science.
