The entire "AmErICANs dOnT kNoW 1/3>1/4!!" thing rests on AW'S declining sales not reversing from an ad campaign.

If tomorrow, Arby's starts offering 2 extra slices of meat with their sandwiches, and then you didn't buy them, would it make sense for me to run around saying "Haha Carl@sh.itjustworks doesn't know how addition works! He doesn't know when you add 2 to something you have more of it!"

I am not from the United States of Murica. There are 2 different A&W's. A&W Canada also only sells grass fed, and grass finished beef. Which are higher quality than regular beef.

It is over 1 hour drive to the nearest Arby's. I don't know anything about Arby's. That is like me saying you are missing out on $3 summer deal at Harvey's.

Haha Carl@sh.itjustworks doesn't know how addition works! He isn't driving 2 hours to buy a gross-ass Arby's burger because he thinks when you add 2 to something you have the same amount!
