    Imagine learning that people are eating free food at Burger King and complaining that they’re not serving McDonald’s at regular price.

        It’s a very poor analogy.

        I suppose it works better like so:

        Imagine…

        You’re in line at McDonald’s talking to a buddy about how Burger King has better quality, is free, and that you’ll not be returning to McDonald’s in July because their burgers are going to cost $0.24 per microgram, and the owner is a clown.

        Someone unaffiliated with McDonald’s who is also standing in hears your comment and starts shouting for you to “GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE!”

        … not because they don’t like Burger King.
        … not because they have never tried Burger King.

        But because they closely identify with McDonald’s, and the clown that represents it.

        Hope that’s clear. Heh

          @dismalnow Ah, okay. Yeah, that makes more sense. I legit thought folks were getting free Burger King somewhere. xD
