They should be embarrassed by what they already did.

I'm not making these people do these things. I'm called Donkey of the Day, and it really caught me off guard. Damn, Charlemagne. Who got the Donkey of the Day today? Well, Jess Hilarious, donkey of the day for Thursday, October 5th goes to a North Dakota man named George Demarius. He's 33 years old and he loves McDonald's.

Okay, it's very hard to do donkey of the days like this and not sound like I'm doing a commercial, but it's not an advertisement. I'm just reminiscing. I think it's safe to say that 95% of the world, regardless of how you feel about fast food, has some type of positive core memory in regards to the Golden Arches, okay?

If you born in the 1900s like I am, then you know Ronald McDonald, you know the Hamburglar, you know Mac Tonight, you know Birdie the Early Bird, you know Officer Big Mac, you know Grimace. You know why those characters are so popular? Because McDonald's is so popular, okay? We've all took a dive in that McDonald's playpen at some point in our lives. Envy, did you ever play with those colored balls in the playpen when you was a kid?

Of course you did, all right? But the reason we really love McDonald's is because of the food, okay? Once again, I was born in 1978, so I grew up when McDonald's, my mouth watering just thinking about it, but I grew up when McDonald's used to cook their fries in a vat of cottonseed oil and beef tallow, commonly known as fat. Okay, Malcolm Gladwell did an amazing podcast on this one time. Go listen to it. Malcolm Gladwell's revisionist history titled mcdonald's broke my heart listen

when those fries were loaded with saturated fat amazing okay mcdonald's switched to pure vegetable oil in 1990 that's why the fries lost their meaty taste but they still slap all right but mcdonald's fries when they are hot are some of the ultimate comfort food moral of the story is we all love mcdonald's i have loved mcdonald's at point, but I believe it's safe to say none of us love McDonald's as much as George Demarius. See, George Demarius is the type of human I hate because he's an entitled prick. I can't stand people with a sense of entitlement. Entitlement is the grossest kind of human behavior. A sense of entitlement is a cancerous thought process that is void of gratitude, and it is a death blow thought process that is voided gratitude and it

is a death blow to any type of relationship and this man george demarius is beyond entitled see he walked into a mcdonald's and went up to a random customer in mcdonald's and demanded this man buy him a big mac and a happy meal first of all 33 is a big h okay way too big to be asking for a happy meal what the hell you gonna do with a kid's size fry and some apple slices? This man asked for a Happy Meal, and the person he was demanding this Happy Meal from replied, rightfully so, get a job. And when he said that, all hell broke loose.

Let's go to CBS News for the report, please. Police in Bismarck arrested two people this weekend after one man was acting violent near a fast food restaurant. That happened a little before 1 o'clock in the afternoon at McDonald's along Tyler Parkway. Police say a man told them he was walking in to grab lunch when he was approached by another man, George Demarius. The man said Demarius asked him to buy him a Big Mac and a Happy Meal. Police say the man told Demarius to go get a job. The man says he then

walked in to get in line when he says Demarius followed him inside and pointed a gun at him, telling him what he said was disrespectful. Witnesses then say Demarius swore at the man and left. Police also arrested Demarius's girlfriend Eloise flying by because they say she gave officers a fake name. Police also say Demarius had concealed the gun he was carrying in his one-year-old daughter's stroller. Demarius appeared in court this afternoon and he is being charged with terrorizing. I would like the record to show that Eloise flying by sounds like a fake name. So what name does she give? I want to know the name she actually gave. First of all, dropping the clues bombs for Trent Guff Miller. Okay, he's the 43-year-old man who rightfully told George to get a job

and proceeded to get in line and order his own food. Now, I'm going to tell you straight up, I probably would have bought the food for George. Okay, depending how he asked. And because I would have asked him, are you getting this Happy Meal because the child you love is hungry? And Trent, I have to say, I don't know how things are in North Dakota. Personally, I wouldn't have dismissed this man like that. Even though I have no problem with what you said and how you handled yourself,

I just feel like I wouldn't have dismissed this man like that, not in 2023. I would have treated him a little bit more kinder, treated him like a human simply because this man is clearly dealing with something. There are some issues here. There is some pain that he clearly couldn't wait to project. And if you're 33 and you come into a McDonald's asking another grown man to buy you a Big Mac and a Happy Meal, then life clearly has you dealing with some desperate times. Now, the president of the Fat Lives Matter committee said to me this morning, I should have given the

hee-haw solely to Trent. Because what happened to paying it forward? What happened to being a good Samaritan? Look out for your fellow man. He told me if there is a choice between a bullet and a Happy Meal, he's taking the Happy Meal. Of course you would because you're fat, okay? I also replied to him, let the record show you would take the Happy Meal regardless. Now, that's facts. That is facts. Trent didn't know

it was going to escalate to this, though. He didn't know it was going to escalate to gunplay. And I hate when we tell the victim it's their fault because it's not. This is nobody's issue but George's. Not only did George put himself in danger, he put his one-year-old daughter in danger because he stashed a nine millimeter pistol inside the scroller where his one-year-old daughter was sitting and officers had to point their gun in the direction of him and his young daughter while arresting him. Listen, we all love McDonald's, but not enough to be charged with terrorizing with a dangerous weapon.

Now, George has potentially traded in his love of the Golden Arches for golden showers. From the playpen to the penitentiary. From the quarter pounder to getting pounded every quarter hour. From nuggets with sweet and sour sauce to niggas skeeting sauce on you in showers. That is not what you want your life to be, kids. Please give George Demarius. Oh, matter of fact... Now please give George Demarius the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons. You are the donkey of the day.

You are the donkey Of the day Yee-haw I agree with you. It is nasty that George pulled a gun on that man just because he wouldn't buy him some McDonald's.

No, great play on words. What are you talking about? Golden nuggets to golden showers. Who said that? Sweet and sour sauce to you know what in the shower. Who said that? Sweet and sour sauce to you know what in the shower. Who said that? You!

I ain't say none of those things. Prove it. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. BET, we'll see y'all tomorrow. Peace, BET. Donkey of the Day is brought to you by the law office of Michael S. Lamisoff. Don't be a donkey.

Dial pound 250 on your cell and say the bull. If you've been hurt in a construction accident, that's pound 250 from your cell and say the bull. Wake that ass up. In the morning. The Breakfast Club.
