Last week, I sacrificed my dignity by queuing up to buy a... H@ppy Me@l! Oh... the pain... oh the embarassment! Oh my shattered macho image!!!

Thing's I've learnt about buying H@ppy Me@ls!

1) Always pause and pretend to think, and hesitate a lot to emulate adults who are uncool and don't know anything about McD's.

2) Pretend to crack your brains trying to remember what some imaginary child would like with his/her H@ppy Me@l!!!

3) Even better if you can quickly create such a character!

4) Point at everything and ask silly and redundant questions!

5) Mispronounce the names of the food or pretend that you don't know what it's called!

6) If possible, try to act cool in a dorky sort of way!

7) Drop hints of buying the H@ppy Me@l for someone other than yourself!

8) Drop even MORE hints of buying the H@ppy Me@l for someone other than yourself!

9) H@ppy Me@ls come in small portions! Not fit for consumption if you happen to eat a lot like me! Unless you buy two at one go!

10) Practice digging holes beforehand! You might want to bury your head after you purchase a H@ppy Me@L!

I hope at least 'someone' is H@ppy with the toy that came with it! ;)
