I'm sure most of my readers already had to cut onions at least once in their life and had to cry because of that. Well, my ingenious brother found a way to reliably avoid that (and it indeed works, I tried it out today):
Get a big piece of cling film, and wrap it around your head so that it covers your eyes. Be sure that you're still able to breath through the nose! Then start cutting your onion(s), and you won't experience any more crying. The only disadvantage is that your look through the cling film is not as clear as without, but to be honest, who cares as long as there is no more crying involved?

And the currently advertised "BigChicken" is the proof. It's a combination of the good, old BigMac layers, without the little cucumber slices, and with the chicken thingies (that you probably know from the McChicken) insead of the normal meat. When I opened the box yesterday, it smelled very tasty, but when I actually ate it, it tasted like... well, almost nothing. That was so disappointing. These guys you see in the TV commercial must either have a lapse in taste or be on some drug that made them have an "eat flash". I bet they all smoked some bad weed, and the guy in the middle who destroys the table was taking some metamphetamine before. Does McDonalds really want to have junkies as target group and advertise that?
