I haven't drunk McD's coffee in years, and one of the reasons is that in addition to being truly wretched coffee - all but tasteless - the stuff is just TOO FUCKING HOT. One time about 25 years ago I was helping a friend move, and we stopped at McD's for some breakfast stuff. I tried sipping a little of the coffee in the truck, but the vehicle bounced so much that it was impossible to drink without burning my lips. I stuck the cup out the window to try to empty a little bit out, and even with the wind blowing and just small amounts coming out of the cup, it burned my hand like an em-effer. > >
