Dear GYA, Did you hear that McDonald's is now serving fish McBites on their menu? This is great news because I'm really sick and tired of all these liberal scientists saying the oceans are running out of fish-based slurry cubes. If that were the case, we wouldn't be eating these babies for 99 cents a pop. It's called economics, idiots. Anything happening this weekend after I slap another scientist with McFacts? - Jimmy Beledouchi, Draper---
