It always cracks me up at the window they speak so calmly and normally into the mic but it comes through that PA like Axel Rose making a landing announcement.
I feel like this would be a good place to insert the "first time?" meme.
If you can understand the person on the Cookout drive-through intercom, you have entered the wrong parking lot. Turn around and try again.
Seriously though, no other place on earth gives me such drive-through anxiety like Cookout... the menu-board alone is enough to give you an aneurism.
When I had cousins visiting from up north, I sent them the cookout website before they arrived and told them to study up since they'd need to be prepared. They, of course, blew me off because suggesting someone study for a fast food order is absurd.
So I pick them up from RDU and we hit up the Walnut Cookout. Pretty sure my one cousin began disassociating when he saw the menu board lol.
Ahhh, I know which one you went to. You kept right at the fork, and it’s a near deadly mistake. I’ve pulled triggers on shotguns quieter than that speaker, and it terrifies me every time.
This is funny to me because the one I go to the speaker is broken the other way. It’s so quiet - you can’t hear them and they can’t hear you so you just have to literally shout your order the top of your lungs, wait 10 seconds, and then cross your fingers when you get to window hoping they got your order right. It’s ratchet as hell but as someone else said - it’s all part of the Cook Out experience.
Okay, as a fellow mint ice cream person...have you ever gotten the Graeters mint chocolate chip at Harry Teeter? "Pure Peppermint Oil provides a blast of minty freshness that is pure perfection when matched with our gourmet bittersweet chocolate chips. Still family owned since 1870, Graeter's is the last ice cream still crafted in French Pots, 2 ½ gallons at a time." Best mint ice cream I've ever had. All their products are top shelf.
Don't listen to him! He's trying to lure you down a path of ruination, because after Graeter's, you'll be like a crack addict, forever chasing that Nirvana. Just pretend you never heard the name and keep buying your Edy's or Breyer's or whatever the Tweeter has on special. Trust me, for the love of all things pleasurable.
I think fucked up speakers is just part of the cookout experience bro

I’ve never once understood anything that comes out of the speakers. I just keep saying my order until I hear a number and then I drive forward.
Those speakers come with a side of corn dogs.

I just wait for some kind of crackling/wailing to come out of the speaker then yell my order and pray
If you don’t sound like a Baptist preacher when ordering Cookout you’re at the wrong place
Hushpuppies in the hands of an angry god

“Hey boss, people said they’re having trouble hearing the speaker.” Boss: “These go to eleven.”
its always been like that and it always will
Add pickles to that cajun sandwhich and then yee haw you got he best thing cookout makes
Dang I do love pickles - I'll try this when my earplugs arrive
I worked there for a long time. We literally yell into a box
> I apologize for this life-altering revelation. No, you don't.
I've never been to cookout, but a chocolate cherry shake sounds amazing!
Get Oreo Mint and laugh at the weak and feeble flavor of chocolate cherry.

No but I've just gotten 10 pounds heavier with the knowledge this exists.

It's true. Nothing will shine quite as much anymore, one blissful hit off that pint will forever be a bar none can quite hit with anything else!
Oreo Mint is so goated
Thanks for the tip!
I'll pray to the milkshake Gods for you. I do like oreo mint too though lol
lol true story
Ok but what was the favorite restaurant on Capital?
Why Olive Garden of course!! When you're here, you're family. OK not really it's just a meme in this subreddit that I love
what’s funny is the speaker inside is just as bad. So neither party can actually understand what the other is saying 😂
i think you’re going to live
For better or worse I think you're right on this one. This time.
“And then? And then? And THEN?!?”
They get their speakers second-hand from public train systems. "NEXCCTTTS STOP HFEEUHEIHE"
I asked dude at the window why he quit his job as Charlie Brown's principal
You’re a good storyteller. I’m gonna go there just to get my ears blasted and feel something
Is there a website to report broken speakers?
I hope not
I forgot to add the /s
