It's a case of common sense. Obviously an accident, obviously cooked. Throw it in the trash and move on with life. You crazy black and white maniacs that think every rule has to be applied 100% in every case with no possibility of anything ever happening that maybe doesn't make sense or isn't the intention of the people who wrote the rule are like 50% of what's wrong with society.

I have a feeling the granny probably pissed someone off along the way. I'm sure sometimes it gets thrown away and everyone moves on.

You and I obviously have no idea what happened at the security gate, or the extent to which she tried to argue about it or hide it. I’ve travelled in and made mistakes in the past and the result was a stern ticking off. I suspect there was more to this.

Us crazy black and white maniacs is why Australia doesn't get to enjoy the wide array of pest and dieses the rest of the world has.

Fuck this gandma and her chicken burger. Entitled people like her are actually what's wrong with society.

You can accomplish your goals while not being a dick about it.

You started with name calling and proceed to define others as dicks.

Yes I called the people who charged a grandma $2000 for accidentally bringing a sandwich that has zero chance of carrying avian influenza dicks. Why you're choosing to take that personally is beyond me.

Avian influenza dicks are what I'd really would not be happy to see in a sandwich burger

So you’re ageist too. Got it.

False. We love all chicken sandwiches regardless of how old they are.

No he's right I think I do start to discriminate against chicken sandwiches once they're more than a week or so old.
