I don't care for Hardee's either. The last time I ate at one was in 2000. We were on a road trip to Seagrove, Florida and stopped at the Hardee's in Dothan, Alabama. I am no longer friends with this person.
(General warning - if you absolutely must force your friends to eat fast food, please do not make it Hardee's. If you absolutely must make it Hardee's, please do not make it in Dothan, Alabama.)
And no one grew into anything new, we just became the worst of what we were."
