Truth in advertising.

Must be that chain out of New York. 2nd most tasteless burger I’ve ever had.

I saw a billboard years ago advertising:Po’ Ol’ Mike’sWarm Beer, Lousy Food

Y’all come back now, ya hear?

If the burgers are actually not so lousy, with low expectations (setting the bar so low), the burgers might seem almost great.

Are you going to try Greasy Spoon tomorrow?

“Would you like fries with that?”

“Do I have to?”

HOWARD! … did you tip a wooden nickel …?

Did they get your order correct? Unlike the other Lousy Burger we all know.

doesn’t “lousy” describe every burger…?
