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
