sorry I apalogise in advance for the parody post above.


Havent you ever poured water on your hands when inside your car with your hands outside the window so the water goes on the ground? Another possible solution.

Why not just throw the drink away? Are you so fat and caffeine addicted you can't toss half a sofa without going into convulsions 10 minutes later?

Also, who the fuck gets grease all over themselves while eating? Have you ever heard of a napkin?

Why does ATOT fail so miserably at fast food? It is like every week there is another "OMG ate Taco Bell and now I'm died" thread...

In most cases I haven't had a need for wet wipes, but it sounds like a good investment on the occasion I do, thx4 the suggestion guys.

I actually usually don't order drinks (at In-N-Out, for example, I always bring my water bottle), but there's a particular fried chicken place where getting the combo makes it worth a soda. Before leaving I like to top it off again and get the most for my money; this is especially the case when I'm working late and could use a little caffeine and fun. I don't know about you, but I would never pick up a chicken tender or wing with a napkin.

In a brilliant moment of improv, you remember that there is a water nozzle at the soda fountain, and quickly soak a napkin with slightly diluted Hi-C Flashin' Fruit Punch so that you may be done with this whole ordeal and leave.

You must not go to very seedy restaurants Mr. Fancypants. At the places I eat, I wash my hands directly under the nozzle; no napkin needed.

As mentioned pretty much every single soda fountain has a water outlet too. It comes out of the same spout as one of the sodas. Look for a really small handle near one of the spouts. It's hard to see and most people don't know it's there.

Whatever about the fountain. Water doesn't remove grease. napkins do. pee in the trash can and use one of the trays for privacy.

I rarely soil more than the tips of my thumb and pointer finger. Two kissy-style smacks and most of the greasiness is gone. Follow up with napkins and you're good to go.

I'd prefer to wash my hands though. The restrooms in FF places here are usually pretty nasty (except Chick-Fil-A).

It's a trick question.

Anyone eating in a fast food place in a bad section of town is going to just wipe their hands on their pants.

FWIW, it is actually shared with a drink that isn't a soda (punch, lemonade, "tea"). Because the water for those drinks does not go through the carbonizer.

That said, water is very ineffective at removing grease.

The real question is: why would you leave your car to eat at a fast food place? If you are going to take the time to actually sit down, go to a proper establishment and get something not terrible tasting. Fast food ceases to be fast when you have to get our of your car. They have a drive through for a reason.

The only real answer is to Fap on the counter

...no sense letting your pre~greased hands go to waste.

And get saliva residue all over my steering wheel?

The Hi-C thing was a sort of self-deprecating joke; I pressed for water but the last person to use it used Hi-C, so I initially got a blast of corn syrupy stickiness while trying to cleanse myself.

Doesn't always work out that way (I can definitely get In-N-Out faster in person than driving), and this particular place always has my order in a minute or less regardless. Additionally, it's a brief occasion in which I can get out of the lab and do something exciting.
