:siren: :siren: [highlight]HEY LURKER! yes, you, this thread probably won't ever be bumped and I don't know how you stumbled upon it but there used to be [media] tags that this thread used and they're gone now so figure out how to view the images on your own.[/highlight]
It started off as a simple attempt to get some food for me, as I was too lazy to cook something and had no food at home that wouldn't require cooking, as I live on my own (noone to cook for me, I'm lazy hurr durr), this is also my first Christmas/New Year on my own and by far, the loneliest one, most of my friends left the country and the ones that stayed are in a different town. Anyway, I decided to go buy some McDonalds food and take some pics of the town, so I grabbed my camera and headed out.

So I drive into the parking lot and this is the point where it gets suspicious.
[media]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2540/4212156509_e1247d86a9_b.jpg[/media]
The parking lot is deserted.
[media]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2706/4212921746_28d0116b87_b.jpg[/media]
I parked like a jerk because it was empty

It's closed! :byodood:
[media]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4025/4212158275_a1b33aee73_b.jpg[/media]
I then headed back to my district to find a convenience store or something.

RED LIGHT!

Hey ma I'm doing 60 and taking a picture, holding the camera with my both hands!
[media]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2580/4212161065_26f37bec1a_b.jpg[/media]
Another red light but I don't give a shit this time because I've got a lane that goes left and the traffic light has no control over it, mwahaha!
[media]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4018/4212925962_5ed3536264_b.jpg[/media]
They're everywhere! :gonk:
[media]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4050/4212162343_bd6350896e_b.jpg[/media]
There's a 24 hour convenience store I frequent... Though it looks suspiciously dead.
I parked and took a close look at the shop and noticed that there was noone inside. Then a BMW pulled in in front of my car and a guy and a chick got out, the chick piggybacked the guy and they tried to get into the store.
[media]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2653/4212927250_e633e4c221_b.jpg[/media]
Yeah.. it's closed.. it's a 24/7 shop :irony:

I'm becoming less and less amused and more hungry with every minute that passes.
[media]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2682/4212929138_a189c35cbe_b.jpg[/media]
Another closed shop.

Wow, sounds like you had a journey.
I woke up and ate cereal and blueberries.
I had toast
of course shops are going to be closed it's christmas
Awww man I read the whole thing! Great story! So strange seeing all the streets deserted. Merry Christmas!
I should try making a thread like this one day, I'm thinking of a drive to the beach with some people or something though. Also Merry Christmas everyone.
That was a very fun adventure, thank you.
I love threads like this. Where do you live? Cyprus?
[QUOTE=Brokein3;19192521]I love threads like this. Where do you live? Cyprus?[/QUOTE]
We have a detective here!
what is that camera
Note the Condom Shelf in the second shop
A very enjoyable thread. I'm about to have a Christmas bacon sandwich by the way. (traditional of course)
Also cigarettes are so cheap on the continent! 2.25E is like £1.50 over here in the UK...And we pay over £5.00 for them!!
cool pics
The camera is a Nikon D40, and yes, I live in Cyprus
This is a cool thread. :)

You knew everything would be closed and that store by your house was open and this was all for attention but it's ok. You're allowed to do that because it's Christmas and lonely.
What a great Christmas.
AAA threath would read again my friend.
I give this thread a huge thumbs up. Brightened my day a little bit.

I didn't expect McD to be closed. Same with the 24/7 store, and if I didn't aim to go to McD I'd go to the one by my house in the first place :geno:
