The McDonalds Misery Seat
September 9th 2006 02:21
The Misery Seat is an architectural phenomenon, stretching back to cavemen times when the unpopular cavepersons would have to sit on jagged spikes on cursed grounds.The ancient Britons called it Thy SIte Of Miseere and has since evolved into the modern day Misery Seat, now all over Sydney Cityrail Trains.
----------
For a university student, it's more shameful to buy a cheeseburger at the globalisation station of McDonalds than to throw rocks at the prime minister. So if stopping by Maccas in George Street near the cinemas sometime, why not enhance the experience and take a seat.... a MISERY seat.
If walls could talk, you might not be so miserable since you're facing one. The typical posture when eating a hamburger is very slumped over, 2 hands around the sandwich. You don't bring the burger up to your face, you go down to it and its all-powerful hold.
Typical of The Misery Seat©®TM, it is situated next to heavy foot traffic. So if you decide to look up between sweaty bites, you may get some darting eye action from people walking by. They could have used that space for a tofu bar or Pilates mat, shocking!
Just down the road at the McDonalds in George Street next to Wynyard, you may spy another.
It may be hard to see. That's because in spite of my massive flash, clearly the sombreness of this particular MISERY SEAT is able to grow by sucking in light. If you'll look below you'll see the hands of some lonely man eating his Big Mac layer by layer. Even HE didn't choose to sit there. Instead the misery seated must watch this person to see what to aspire to. Even colour won't glisten here, see the colourful poster on the right. It just STOPS for fear of abolishment.
Look out for Misery Seats but don't look directly at them. Add a comment...
