With McDonald's recently re-opening a number of their drive-thrus for takeaway, people all over have been queuing for a Big Mac, fries, some McNuggets and a McFlurry.
And while many fans of the fast food chain were happy to just be able to get some food, the wait during lockdown seems to have made others a little more impatient.
Over the weekend a woman took to social media to share an awkward experience she had at a McDonald's drive-thru - but it turns out it's not quite what it seems.
The woman, from Canberra, Australia, claimed that she'd been placing her order when a young lady behind her began honking her horn to get her to hurry up.
Finding this behaviour rather rude, the woman said she hatched a plan to teach the other driver a lesson.
She revealed all in a post on the Canberra Notice Board group on Facebook, reports news.com.au.
It read: "I was in a long McDonald's drive-thru this morning and the young lady behind me honked her horn because I was taking too long to place my order.
"I thought to myself, 'take the high road'. So when I paid for my food at the first window, I paid for both our orders.
"The lad at the counter must have told her what I'd done as she leaned out the window, waved and mouthed 'thank you', obviously embarrassed I had repaid her rudeness with kindness."
But here comes the real kicker.
She added: "So when I got to the second window I showed both receipts and took her food too.
"Now she has to go back to the end of the queue and start all over again."
Brutal!
However it turns out that the post wasn't actually that woman's story to share.
Since the post has gone viral, the woman has now revealed that the McDonald's tale was actually a few years old and she'd pinched it from one of her friends who lives in Ireland.
She told Yahoo News Australia she shared it simply to "give people a laugh and a change from the hate and violence being spread".
"It’s been going around for years," she added.
Before the truth emerged, the post garnered plenty of attention, with some people finding it "spiteful" and others thinking it was "hilarious".
One person replied: "It’s so petty...so incredibly petty ...it made me laugh like a drain."
Another said: "How spiteful".
A third commented: "Funny - but not good. Like the old saying, two wrongs don't make a right."
Someone else posted: "I had to read this a few times, picture the scene, and the glory. A triumphant win."
Others thought it was "petty" and "hilarious".
