400 errors. Everyone knows about them. At the very least, you probably know about error 404, the most well-known one. But there’s actually a bunch of these. Today, I’m going to explain what all the 400 errors mean. And naturally I’m going to do so by ordering food from McDonalds.
Error 400: you go to McDonald’s and order food. But you order in German. In an American Mcdonald’s. They can’t understand a word you’re saying.
Error 401: you go to mcDonalds and ask for alcohol. They actually do have alcohol here, but when they ask you for ID to prove you’re over 21, you don’t provide any.
Error 402: you order your food, but then you don’t pay for it.
Error 403: you are actually banned from that MCDonalds. Probably for violating error 409 too much.
Error 404: you order a big mac. Unfortunately, they’re out of Big Macs at the moment, likely due to an error 413.
Error 405: you order your food. This time, you do pay for it. Problem is, you’re trying to pay with a WalMart gift card.
Error 406: you ask for a big mac (they’re not out anymore) with two $20’s from the cash register as a topping.
Error 407: sorry, the cash register is inoperable, they can’t serve you. Or maybe they’re just telling you that because the server doesn’t like you.
Error 408: you tell the server your order, but you don’t actually pay for it or pick it up. You then come back the next day and ask for your order.
Error 409: hey, the guy in front of you is ordering! Wait your turn.
Error 410: you try to order a mcpizza. They don’t make that anymore.
Error 411: you ask for chicken nuggets. You don’t specify if you want a 4-piece, 6-piece, 8-piece, 10peas, or 40-peace, though.
Error 412: you order food from McD’s. Except you haven’t left your house. No, you’re not ordering over the phone, you’re just talking to no one.
Error 413: you try to order 300 big macs. Why? I don’t know. I’m here to explain the errors, not why you’re doing these inane actions and getting them.
Error 414: you try to order 17 different items, and their computer crashes. Hey, this is a low-budget MCdonalds, okay? Don’t judge.
Error 415: you order your food, and you pay for it like a normal person for once. Unfortunately, you’re trying to pay with a card, and this McDONALD’S only takes cash.
Error 416: this mcdonald’s has a physical menu (probably for foreign customers). You ask for the first item on page 5. Why are you ordering off the physical menu when there’s no language barrier? I don’t know. Nor do I know what you’re talking about: this menu only has four pages.
Error 417: you ask for a big mac, but there’s only one girl working there and the poor girl doesn’t know how to make a big mac. Hey, if it’s so easy, why don’t you do it yourself?
Error 418: you try to order a baconator. At MCdonald’s. This isn’t a Wendy’s.
(At this point the list starts skipping numbers.)
Error 421: you order food, but you’re actually talking to one of the customers, rather than someone who works there. I don’t think they know how to make your big mac either.
Error 422: you order food, but the server can’t hear what you’re saying. Probably because of the idiot from error 409.
Error 423: you go to mCdonalds for food, but it’s 11 pm and they close at 10. This ain’t a 24 hour taco bell, y’know.
Error 424: you order your food. You do nothing wrong. Unfortunately, your friend is the one actually getting the food, and he does something dumb and you don’t get your food. He probably did an error 414.
Error 425: you go up to the construction site for a new mcd’s and try to order food, when the restaurant hasn’t been built yet. Unlike a death star, it’s not armed and operational.
Error 426: and now you’re trying to pay with euros? This is an american restaurant. I don’t even know how much a euro is worth in american dollars.
Error 428: okay, let’s do something different. You’re not ordering food. Instead, you suugest that they hold a contest where the winner gets a MCDs gift card. The manager likes the idea… but you don’t specify what KIND of contest? An eating contest? A drawing? A gladiatorial fight to the death?
Error 429: you go to mcD’s for breakfast. Then lunch. Then dinner. Then for a midnight snack, and I’m sorry, but there’s a rule that you can only order from the same restaurant up to three times in one day. That totally isn’t a thing I just made up to get you to eat somewhere else for once.
Error 431: you order food. They ask for a name on your order. You tell them it’s Freegenweegenwallodribbenfraxenlaxenismabittle.
(Fun fact: i did not need to look that up. I’ll give you a cookie if you get the reference)
Error 451: you order a big mac. Unfortunately, it’s wednesday, and the government just passed a law that you can only serve big macs on thursdays. Why? I dunno, i just serve food, i don’t make laws. Go talk to a congressman or something.
And that’s it. Yes, that last one is a movie reference. And yes, it’s a real error. None of this was made up.
Nor was there any sort of personal frustrations in this diatribe from any past experiences. Definitely not. Don’t worry about it. I’m fine. I’m going to bed now. Goodbye.
