#1 What's more important? Sitting down at a State Dinner for a College Athlete -OR- being able to say the POTUS shook his hand in the White House while he was eating a Big Mac™? The second is a great story to tell to the Grand-kids.

Oh, yeah. We done culturally appropriated the hell out of that stuff. One more reason why America totally rocks. We do thank y'all for creating it, though. Sharing is caring!

/me recalls a story his high school German teacher told about taking a visiting German buddy to an American fast food restaurant. Poor dude was bemused to see to hamburgers and frankfurters on the menu. "What, you are eating people from Franfurt?"

And let us not forget the immortal words of President Kennedy: "Ich bin ein Berliner." (I am a jelly donut)
