    imagine being stuck in the drive thru behind some asshole and watching your chicken sandwich's price increase by $5

      Oh, crap. I hadn't even thought of that. I wonder if Wendy's overlooked it too. I predict this..,.

      Wendy's institutes surge pricing. A few weeks later some hog stewing in his car in the drive-thru gets irate that his burger is going to cost an extra $5. He goes into road rage mode and he is particularly angry at the person of color in the first car in line who is "too slow". Bullets fly. People die. Wendy's (and other companies) quietly cancel surge pricing.
