The Old Switcheroo


Dennis and I went out to Black Lotus for a couple cold ones last night. On the way home we stopped at McDonalds to pick something up for Heather and Maddie. We were greeted at the drive-though by a very nice sounding female voice asking us if we wished to try the latest pre-fab concoction they were hocking.

"No" Dennis said into the mic, "but we'd like a ...." and ordered the dinner Heather wanted.

"OK, ANYTHING ELSE?!?!?" boomed a very low and manly voice through the speaker.

We were taken aback by the radical change in sex of the voice. The guy laughed and told us the first voice we encountered was a recording, and we were stuck with him now.

So, unfortunately, the sweetest, nicest, and most intelligible voice at McDonalds these days is fake.

Ok, sorry Alisa, the second most.

Now everyone will recognize my car. How will I keep my cover now?

Watch it, Dave, or you will NOT be allowed fries with that.

I would love to just once hear a sexy man voice.
