Funny you should mention Sonic.  There's one about 10 blocks from our house.  Went there this evening.  The shakes are half-priced after 8 p.m. this month.  Enjoyed my usual pineapple shake.

I found a magazine that was over ten years old at my daughters old doctors office.  When I go I like to bring my own reading materials if I remember or I bring my work note book and do paperwork

When I'm in the waiting room I'm checking out to see if there are any hot people waiting around. If there is I Immeadiatley check out to see if they are packing. yes/no then, I fantasize about them without them knowing it. I wont touch those nasty magazines they have in the waiting room because damn are they gross. I can see the germs crawling around those water damaged puffed up magazines. Yuck :P

I don't suppose anyone has come across a waiting room that stocked "Surgery for Dummies" or "The Idiots Guide to the Operating Room" have they?   :zombiefuck:

That would make observing people in the waiting room so much more fun.

The closest I've come is my therapist's waiting room. She has books full of funny doctor's journal notes. They are hilarious, but I bet they weren't intended to be waiting room reading.

While waiting the other day at my father's doctor I noticed most of the magazines where his trade journals who besides a doctor would want to read them WTF for the prices they charge they could afford better

My cognitive behaviour therapist has booklets with funny quotes from doctor's journals.

I don't touch the magazines at my GP's because germs. Don't know who has had their hands on them. Sometimes I bring my Kindle if I have something I want to read on it but most of the time I have a book or my phone.

Intensity is pretty small on my phone but I wrote a post about the weather on it today.
