What is it about Fergburger that got this reputation ? Anyone ?
it was @Red-Beard who recommended it to me. At that stage the hype was about how fucking large it was - which was true. It was an OK burger , probably better than OK given we hadn't had the explosion of 'boutique' burger places at that time but the balance was all wrong for me. Way, way too much bread. I've never had it again because it took off once FB got hold of it and yeah - queues.

@taniwharugby what's the point of a burger you can't get your gob around?
It sounds like its quality produce but halve the size, knock 40% off the price and you'll sell more at a better margin.

If there were no lines out the door I would have happily gone to see for myself as I love a good burger ( can recommend Ekim Burger in Welly, outstanding and SUCH good value ) but like @Catogrande there is nothing that will have me lining up for ages when there are loads of other options very nearby.
I recall over 20 years ago thinking their burgers were noticeably better than the fare usually served up elsewhere.
These days it's pretty standard but I guess the reputation makes it a "thing to do" for people in Queenstown.

Worth sharing for a few reasons.......
The photo cracks me up, she is DEFINITELY giving the cops the "do you know who I am?" spiel.
She crashed into several parked cars, "including a Tesla" how is the Tesla more relevant than the others ?
How does one become a "socialite?" be a rich, well photographed, snobby arsehole or is there more to it ?

I think that covers it

I assume her defence will be that she was aiming for the Tesla but accidentally hit the cars not owned by twats because she was drunk.
I thought Reece had become a Sydney socialite for a minute there.

Love how they changed the framing too. When they thought it was a Republican at fault it was 'mocking wheelchair user' now that its a Democrat she's just calling him 'hot wheels'..kinda sounds like a compliment.
Stuff will always be complete dogshit for news
