The issue I have with the food is that it all looks cold, the fries look like they would be gritty inside, the pizza looks stiff and cardboard-like.

Thanks for bringing it into my frame of reference.

Tell me that this is a joke. I don’t think it’s funny, but tell me it’s a joke. I am screaming internally.

Psst ... Aerie doesn’t cater to ‘all sizes’ either. There are actually people bigger than an xxl. 

Are you suggesting that readers should be responsible for reading your entire oeuvre to understand any single article?
