What is Just put the fries in the bag
Just put the fries in the bag: (interj..) A desperate plea whispered to the void (or, like, the McDonald's employee who's been staring into the abyss for the past 3 hours). It's the universal language of late-stage capitalism collapsing into a deep-fried fever dream, powered by Grimace Shake residue and the faint scent of impending societal doom. Also, it’s a cry for help. Like, legit call 911, I think I'm seeing Smurf Cats.
example of usage:
- "My existential dread is hitting hard. I need... I *need*... JUST PUT THE FRIES IN THE BAG!"
- Friend: "Dude, you've been staring at that singular pickle slice for 20 minutes." Me: *Eyes widening, voice cracking* "JUST PUT THE FRIES IN THE BAG!"
- *While attempting to explain the nuances of post-structuralist theory to a Cocomelon enthusiast:* "...and thus, the inherent instability of the signifier— JUST PUT THE FRIES IN THE BAG!"
etymology:
Originates from the primordial ooze of fast-food drive-thrus, circa 2023. Legend says it was first uttered by a spectral Karen haunting a Wendy's dumpster, forever searching for her lost Nugget Sauce of Power. Also, some say it involves Elon Musk, Baby Gronk, and a rogue AI that only speaks in bass-boosted 808s. Don’t ask me how, I wasn’t there.
