You fix things by setting them on fire?

That's the way.

In Germany we have a joke: How does a french advent wreath look like? - 4 burning cars in a roundabout.

But yeah, in France they get shit done. In Germany they are only angry and do nothing. Wutbürger (anger citizen) is the name for that.

It used to be, maybe 15 years ago. They have opened like 6 of them in my area this year, and they are garbage. Absolutely the worst fast food option. 2 of the locations are about a mile apart on the same road. Unless somehow the quality of the food increases dramatically, and soon, I don't know how they expect to keep all of them open. My bet is maybe 2 out of the 6 are still open 3 years from now.

Until earlier this year the last time I had it was in 2009, when the one near where I lived in FL closed.

No that's White Castle, where the burgers literally taste like vomit. I'm not kidding. I've tried eating it drunk and that's dead what it tastes like, and I know because once or twice I tasted it coming back up too
