    This is why women should be REQUIRED to look at a McFlurry and hold a scale model of one before deciding they don't want one. Once you actually look at that creamy soft serve and its sweet, innocent toppings, you'll never have doubts again.

    Ordering an M&M McFlurry is a lifetime commitment of at least 5 minutes, some people even take like 15 minutes if they’re slow eaters.

      A mcflurry gets less and less appealing the more and more that you that think about actually having one after youre finally done eating the first one you started and ordered by accident. They are really not a delicious as they seemed to appear and you start loosing your appetite and only because you were brought up right and taught never to waste and to be thankful for having something that so many wish they had do you make your way to the bottom of the cup and scrape your spoon on the bottom before you throw that empty sticky regret in the trash and move on. In hindsight it wasn't that bad and maybe m&M's would make it a better experience. I've already shown that I can eat one by myself.

      My girlfriend left our McFlurries in the car, and they melted all over the inside of my cup holder. I know it's not really her fault.. she had a lot on her mind.. but I find it hard to look at her the same way. A part of me can't help but blame her. Am I wrong for wanting another McFlurry so soon? We've been fighting a lot recently, and I think I might need to find someone else to go to McDonald's with...

    As a white man, this story gives me the urge to run for congress and mandate that all women MUST get an m&m McFlurry and drink it.
    And I truly believe that when a woman is presented with the opportunity to have an M&M McFlurry they need to buy one. So when I hear some women say they already have three and couldn't possibly handle another McDonald's M&M McFlurry right now, or that a doctor told them they are lactose intolerant and it would be dangerous to have one, it feels good to be able to confidently say- they don't know what they are talking about and this is why we need to get serious jail time and financial penalties involved.

    It's telling how people love to focus on the supposed missed opportunity that comes from not having a McFlurry but fail to every acknowledge the bevy of understated side effects that come from having one.

    It's the woman's wallet, so it's the woman's choice. Having a McFlurry is a decision with life long consequences, I am glad she left her options open for the future. Another McFlurry can easily be made.

I guess its good I live in state that will force me to have one even if I know its not for me. I hope it doesn't make me go broke paying for one until I die.

    Next time you have an abortion, get the mcflurry on the way there. My mom took me for an abortion when I was 17 and we stopped at IHOP afterwards. I now realize that unseen forces saw this as a sort of celebration, and wish to judge. The same forces that would be trying to judge the terrible parenting choices inevitably made by someone unequipped for parenting. And please let me know what those self appointed judges come up with when the abortion becomes the ice cream party after the ice cream party.
