At last... a forum where I can write down the stuff that happens in my head. I think some people do this so other people can read it. I'm doing it to get this shit out of my head so it can leave me alone. Holding it in doesn't help.
So...
Ladies, what is your problem with the concept of "drive-thru"? I ask in this gender-focused way because I've never seen a man have such a problem. In the genres of fast food and banking, the clever blokes who invented the "drive-thru" window had a purpose in mind: conduct fast-food or banking related business WITHOUT OPENING YOUR DOOR. How hard can it be? You drive up, slowly and carefully, in such a manner that you can open your window and conduct your business. Yeah, imagine that. Every time I need to stop by the bank and use the drive-thru, who is in front of me? The woman who has the door open, one leg on the ground, and her body oddly arched through the open car window. This is a time-consuming process, and it's painful to watch. Here's an idea: park your car and go inside.
I realize that not all women have this problem, but much like cervical cancer, it tends to affect only women. We as a society must act. How? Mandatory driving lessons that include the drive-thru experience. We all learn about parallel parking and 3-point turns in our teenage years when we take driver's education, but very little time is spent on acquiring McLunch or making deposits into our checking accounts. Until that time, maybe people like me should just buy paintball guns. "Close the damned door!" SPLAT! SPLAT! SPLAT! Yeah.
