  • What the fuck happened with everyone switching to ingredients that make you shit yourself? Like making it smaller, without flavor, and unpleasant textures wasn’t enough? It’s like someone at the top said “Wow, they’re still buying our food after all that? Well let’s see what happens if we start making them shit their pants too.”






  • I would totally agree with you if it was 10 years ago. But we have already had a Trump administration that failed miserably, killed millions of people, and had record low approval ratings.
    I go out of my way to avoid Fox News and it’s ilk, but I still have to deal with it. There’s no way for these people to have spent the last 10 years without being exposed to differing opinions and facts that expose at least some of the lies. The people who still “believe” in Trump do it willfully. They don’t want to be wrong, so they purposely ignore those things that they don’t want to know. They want something that Trump provides so badly that they are lying to themselves. This is also why they are so vocal about their insanity. They have to keep yelling it at the top of their lungs to drown out the little voices in the back of their heads. The problem is Trump only has one thing to offer and that’s hate.







  • Excellent answer.
    And I really want to emphasize Location matters.
    At a Chucky Cheese or a McDonald’s, I would be pleasantly surprised if you offered drinks. And any adults that dare can rummage through the leftovers from the kids if they are desperate or masochists. But, if we’re at a regular restaurant, then this is clearly not about the kids, this is an adult gathering with the kids as an excuse. There better be at least some kind of appetizers or light snacks. And they should have communicated that clearly. The amount I expect to be fed is directly proportional to how much I had to dress up. If I can roll up in my PJs, shove my child out the car door, and drive away, then I expect nothing from you. Sweatpants and whatever shirt I pulled off of the top of the pile of clean laundry? Then I expect a place to sit and some water. If I had to put on my good sweats and find a shirt without holes or stains, then we are entering charcuterie territory. But, if I need to put on a jacket and tie, then you can bet that I expect appetizers, a steak (or steak equivalent), and liquor or dessert.
