Wait, I thought the reasons things slump for hospitality is that travel drops off a cliff since celebrations are over, people are watching their money after spending so much earlier, and people trying to stick to diets.

as long as there are videogames there will always be 13 year olds processing heavy trauma through them.

Poochie McDonalds 💀

I can understand restaurants not wanting you to split entrees, but appetizers? I always thought those were designed for sharing.

Restaurants, you do what you need to do to make your business work, and I’m going going to order in a way that makes sense for me. If we don’t see eye to eye, that’s OK, I’ll just go somewhere else.

One minute it’s better to eat at home and another it’s cheaper to dine out

Well also the prices of alcoholic beverages have gone up faster than the prices of food, at least at the places where I eat.

It wouldn’t take much to make a lasagna-like chocolate dessert.

Those are Mouli graters, and they go back to the ‘40s. We had an all-metal one in the 1970s that my elementary school self loved. It was almost as satisfying to use as an old wall-mounted pencil sharpener.

Yes, it’s just a chocolate layer cake.

Someone at Chick-Fil-A AND someone in NY did not do their due diligence.

Same here - I know how the things work, and when I only need a handful of items, I’m in and out way before I’d get through a human checker.

I absolutely LOVE self checkout, not having to wait behind 3 people with loaded carts just so I can grab some shampoo or something is much better for my stress levels.  The ones at the 2 Giants around me have always worked without a problem.  The only bad thing about them is when people with full carts try to use them…

Good thing they are getting rid of Android Auto and Apple Car paly, those things can be distracting to drivers. 

As someone who is not quite 45 yet and has shown up 30 minutes late to his job regularly for the past 20 years, I resemble that remark!

I’ll let Tom know, he’s going to be really disappointed

Also maybe the demographic least likely to catch flak for showing up 15 minutes late with a breakfast sandwich...

Yeah, when you see politicians standing behind stacks of (blank) paper meant to show meant to show how over regulated we are, remember that stuff like this is in there.

Lead also tastes sweet, which is why kids eat leaded paint chips. That’s probably another reason they picked it in addition to color and weight.
