I lived near this sign and passed it a dozen times, they only took it down in the last few years. It was pretty infamous, even before it hit the internet.
That meme is old as fuck. I legitimately burned a cd of "funny pictures" with this on it 25 years ago for a friend in highschool because we both had dialup and sharing pictures was just too cumbersome.
A CD of "funny pictures"? Even with ancient tech, that must have been a crazy number of pictures, funny or otherwise.
I'm not doubting your claim, I'm just impressed by your commitment. I also had a huge amount of "funny pictures" and a dodgy Internet connection, but I didn't have any friends, so I setup DDNS to host pictures that no one but I would ever see.
edit: I forgot, before I used DDNS, I put many of my pictures on an Angelfire account used by my friend's StarCraft clan. At the time I didn't realize Angelfire was free, at least at that tier, and was unable to convince my parents to pay for one. Even with our piddly 28.8 connection, it was worth it. This was, I think, the last image I uploaded there (sorry about the reddit link):
edit 2: At least for me, the reddit link didn't work. Here's another version of the same picture:
Nice! Not to one-up (or one down) you or anything, but my HDD was 6.4GB. Last time I tested that drive (which was admittedly a few years ago), it even still worked. It was a Quantum drive, a brand I've otherwise not heard of, but one which was apparently notable enough to to get its own Wikipedia page.
Yass mcdonalds definitely knew what they were doing, that sign's been up there since the 90's at least (that's when i first saw it on my way to Canberra)

Or thought it through thoroughly.
Say that three times very quick
I disagree, clearly they did.
So sad when that sign went down… was 100% planned.
Was it in the midwest?
yass is country town in australia

Thank you
Salad? For breakfast?
a light and savory mid-afternoon snack. it's ~ 3pm i think down there right now.
That's a pretty tame eating ass comment tho.
Cute, but I'd be surprised if that was a real sign at any point in time.
The McDonald's at Yass is actually open 24 hours, and I'm pretty sure that has been the case for at least 20 years or so when I last visited.

Yeah, I used to just accumulate every meme I could at LANs back before people called them memes. I think at the time Id just upgraded to an 8 Gig hdd.
I had memes about Windows 95.
Back when the word 'macro' was still a thing....

I too evacuate my bowels in the morning.
time to go down under, i guess.
"I'm lovin' it"
It is with great regret, i bear the news that this sign has been replaced.
My ass open 25/7 365
That's like ~1650 years ago. When's the next opening?
6 am? I guess the early "riser" gets the ass 🤷
Honey, please. My ass is open 24/7, 365 for dine in or eating out. 😤
It took me a while to get what was right.
MYass they didn't think this through
