[quote]Fast food fans are going to extreme lengths to acquire a rare McDonald’s dipping sauce, even if it means handing over their much more valuable possessions.
In an ad posted to the Facebook group Pin Nation, Rachel Marie of Michigan offered to trade a packet of the famed Szechuan dipping sauce for a collection of pins. But one user, desperate to get his hands on the condiment, offered Marie something she never expected.
Kimmel said he has another car he can fix up to drive on a daily basis, but told Business Insider he “just needed me some friggin sauce!!”
While the trade might seem unfair, people are desperate to get their hands on the cult-favorite sauce. In a YouTube video posted on Reddit, a McDonald’s customer is seen selling McNuggets dipped in the sauce for $10 apiece.
McDonald’s first released the Szechuan sauce around 20 years ago as a promotion for the Disney movie “Mulan.” However, interest in the sauce piqued in April 2017 after the TV series “Rick and Morty” featured the sauce as a major plot point in one of its episodes. Fans of the show also took to Change.com and created a petition, asking McDonald’s to “bring back” the sauce.[/quote]
I can't even wrap myself on how fucking stupid you have to be to trade a perfectly functional car for some retarded meme sauce.
That looks like a regular Golf, not a GTi. Hell, the article can't even spell Volkswagen correctly and the post in the picture says "Golf MkIV", no mention of a GTi.
Oh mk IV?
Not that big of a deal really.
The sauce might actually be worth more in a few weeks.
Is he related to Rhod Gilbert?

It's a vw, she got ripped off
The world is just going insane. A perfectly serviceable and good-looking car, traded away for some meme sauce.
Fucking sick of hearing about this fucking sauce all the time.
It's a fucking sauce for fucks sake, keep your rag on you fuckin vagina repellents. I like Rick and Morty but fuck me this is just OTT.

We had a thread a while ago and essentially made the observation that the world has been going progressively more off the rocker since the 90's.

I wonder what a bottle of vagina repellant would look like.
Reminds me of the Ribwich episode from the Simpsons.

I can't find the actual facebook posts, but I think this is the main source, and here is the person who just got the car

Aren't they re releasing it in December tho?

That's the fumiest part about it. I couldn't imagine how livid the person who traded their car is.
If the thing has mechanical problems, then the sauce is probably worth more anyway.
Remember when Twinkies when out of business and boxes were going for 100+ usd????
Volkswagens are shit boxes, I think he got a pretty good deal.
why are people this stupid

Yeah McDonalds are going to make some kind of apology by making it no longer uh, limited?
To be fair, wasn't it like 20 fucking packets per store? It was fuckin outrageous to begin with to have such small amount of sauce and just let cunts sit in a queue like nah tbh mate not gonna say shit. Like did McDonalds not understand the amount of Rick and Morty fans that would queue for this fairly okay sauce.
It's like what someone said before, it's a meme gone a bit too far. When it starts seeping off the internet and into the real world, it always gets cringey as fuck (but makes for great viewing tbf) but fuck me, a car for a very small packet of sauce, absolute joke.
(Sorry, Drunk as fuck, but scottish so ban me for PUI lmao?)

if he's going to keep the sauce and not eat it then yeah, but then again i can't judge value is completely subjective and personal and i can't tell someone something is worth more than something else.

Dude was doing it for views, but still that is pretty damn stupid
i'd have traded my mk4 for a 12 pack by the end, this isn't a surprise
szechuan sauce is readily available from most grocers. mcdonalds particular varient was teriyaki. everyone trading anythign worth more than $5 dollars for some is a Retard
Trading some shitty-ass beamer for the ebin meem sauce would be understandable but damn, a perfectly good mk4 Golf
that's just retarded
it's a shame that Rick and Morty is becoming yet another thing ruined by a fucking toxic fanbase and shitty memes because the show itself is actually pretty good imo
The fans are always the worst part of anything popular.

Can't ever have more than two seasons of nice things in this day and age.

Season 3 was still pretty good, but that's when the fanbase turned into utter cancer

I believe they prefer to be referred to as [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ADrfP4EHV8]..........AIDS![/url], since its a quote from the show and all.
.........Please PLEASE don't take it the wrong way. It really is a quote. As annoyed as I am by a portion of the Rick And Morty fan base I wouldn't just arbitrarily label them that for no reason.

trading any fucking functional car that works for a sauce is stupid.

That's what I meant. 3 was good, but by the time it rolled around, the fanbase had become awful and it feels slightly embarrassing to say you watch the show now, just by association.
