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.
