I got Riley a kid’s meal at Chick-fil-A yesterday. It had the obligatory “prize/toy” enclosed. This one was lamer than usual. It was a roughly 2″ X 2″ cube that had questions on each side. The intent, I believe, is to spur conversation during a family meal. Everyone takes a turn rolling the “die” and answering a question.

There were some fun ones like:

“What would you like to be famous for?”
“What’s the most fun you’ve ever had?”
“What is the strangest food you have every eaten?” (Chick-fil-A nuggets maybe?)
“What’s the most amazing thing you have ever found?”
“What’s the most physical pain you’ve ever had to endure?”

Wait a minute. What was that last one? The most PHYSICAL PAIN? Who’s writing this shit? So much for light family discussion.

Do they think that John McCain is going to be playing the game? Are they working with Child Protective Services?

You’re right, Eric. This has to be the lamest fast food toy we’ve ever seen. We would also like to point out that the questions on that side of the cube all seem related somehow. Perhaps the author had an unhappy childhood and an abusive babysitter?
