A baconator without bacon? That's like asking for diet water.

Man orders a 'Baconator' burger with no bacon.

Was he wearing a bloody sock?

FTFA The 35-year-old told the New Zealand Herald he had placed an order at the drivethrough on Friday morning for a Baconator with no bacon

Wendy's has been advertising that they'll "put bacon on anything" so I asked for a baked potato with bacon on it. They refused. WTF? So bacon on anything doesn't mean "anything"? You can't just hit the "add bacon" button on your cash register like you do for other food and lay two strips of bacon over it?

Worthless idiots.

They're baked potatoes don't automatically come with bacon?? Then... what are those little brown flecks mixed in the sour cream... good god what I have eaten

I see that Wendy's inability to get an order right is worldwide.

I get the guy completely. Once I went to a Brazilian brothel and asked for a shemale with no penis. Sometimes you just want what you want.

Shostie: Bathia_Mapes: I had a dumbass roommate that would order a cheeseburger and tell them to hold the cheese. I asked him why he just didn't order a hamburger instead. He just looked at me as though I was asking a stupid question.

I wish I wasn't serious about this guy's stupidity.

Back in high school I worked at a McDonald's over a summer. I did once get a special order for a cheeseburger without cheese. After confirming the order was real, I went and grabbed a hamburger and rewrapped it in a yellow cheeseburger wrapper.

My guess is that they are under the impression that if you order a sandwich without something, such as mustard, or in this case cheese, they will get it made "fresh". Or they are just stupid.

Ed Finnerty: $50 it's a fat, white guy.

Yep. With a last name like Ilolahia he's got to be white. Besides, according to his FB page, he speaks Tongan, which is a very common language among white people ;)

My god! My former roommate is reproducing!

Actually, at Cheeburger Cheeburger^®, the only way to get a burger with no cheese is to order a cheeseburger and tell them to hold the cheese. They do not sell hamburgers. At all. Period. They're not on the menu.

It's actually a pretty good chain, with a lot of variety in their cheeseburgers and chicken sandwiches and malts (yes, real malts, not the stuff out of a machine), etc.

That is mouse shiat, and they charge you extra for that, Also they call them capers.

Having worked fast food before, I am ok with the ending. This time the police did well. Still remember the video of the cop giving a beat down to a teenage girl for giving him correct change for a $10, after he thought he gave her a $20. Her till didn't have a $20 in it. He got his paid vacation.

Ilolahia alleges when he picked up his order from the trainee staff member it was wrong.
"They gave me Big Classic, the Baconator was correct and the fish (burger) was chicken."
Ilolahia says he quickly lost his temper when he went inside to complain to the manager who he claims blew him off.

Of course the manager blew him off.

They got your order wrong? Just tell them and they'll fix it. Flipping out doesn't solve your problem, it isn't necessary. It's a f*cking fast food burger, not a kilo of heroine.

thermo: I once ordered a veggie burger and got asked if I wanted bacon on it. Does that make up for this "crime"?

That isn't necessarily wrong. I like veggie burgers. They taste nice. I also like bacon. I've never tried the two together, but may well do that quite soon.

Hey, sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but I'd never know 'cause I wouldn't eat the filthy motherfarker. Pigs sleep and root in shiat. That's a filthy animal. I ain't eat nothin' that ain't got sense enough to disregard its own feces.

I don't trust fast food employees after a certain time. After that time, it's wise to just go in and get your garbage food to go.

FTFA: "I had to shout at her."

No, sir, you did not.

I blame "the customer is always right."

serpent_sky: I like this in the middle of the article:

"Have you ever felt intimidated at a fast food outlet?"

Really? Is that a common problem?

I'm intimidated at Taco Bell. Always afraid I'm going to pronounce "enchirito" wrong. It's too bad they don't have those handy pronunciation guides like they did back in the day.

"You expect to be treated as a public person."

I was person in private, they threw me in public.

I now want to be treated publicly.

/wat?

He probably wasn't ordering a cheeseburger but a double-cheesburger without cheese. It is the only way to get the desired double hamburger. You cannot order a hamburger with an extra meat patty on it.

So the question for those that frequent Wendy's: Is there another sandwich on the menu that is the same thing as a Baconator but without bacon? If not, then ordering one without bacon isn't that hard to fathom if one wanted an sandwich that is essentially a Baconator with no bacon.

I always go into get food to go...

I think I don't grasp the concept of the to-go window.

thomps: "They weren't polite words. I called her a homosexual and the b-word"

No one likes being called a /b/tard.

I've tried to use the to-go window before, but I usually only make it about halfway through before the clerk starts screaming and hitting me with a broomstick.

Lesson: Do not eat at Wendy's.

Just wanted to drop off "Bravo" for the headline.

Hey look, a zebu!
