22% of men (incl. Kevin) don't realize that a chimp would fucking wreck them
That was 3, maybe 4, facts stated in different ways. I'm not impressed.

I’m guessing millions of feet of water around the state, and the lakes might’ve only gone up what, maybe half an inch?

I would classify outside as “chilly” now. I’m guessing that puts all hopes to rest?

I stand corrected. After posting that, I stepped outside and was tapped by a light mist that was not visible. #Blessed

I don’t even know what constitutes rain. If we got a single drop, does that mean the 100% prediction was spot on? I also didn’t get a drop, so this is just a hypothetical exercise

This is quite possibly the greatest show of strength from the forcefield we’ve ever seen. 4-7” predicted, and nada

Why do they even need a police force? Everybody knows not to try that in a small town.

I would remove both of his hands in my opening swing, do a 360 and open his stomach. It'd be over in seconds.

Looking at the radar, ain’t shit near me. Looking out the window, I can see some serious lightning, but there’s no thunder. This is weird

Makes sense. It came with the ovens already. Damnit. Should’ve known I would’ve been beaten to the punch on that one.

This has been true forever. Excluding alcohol, which everyone knows has a huge markup, cokes, tea, coffee, etc, go a long way towards profitability. 20+ years ago, I believe the cost of what an average diner would drink was 1.5 cents worth of product/labor. And you were charged $1 or $2 dollars for it. Jesus. I need to get off this thread.

I guarantee that’s better for their business in almost every way. The thing about them, especially depending on whether the town receives a lot of through traffic, is that almost all of their customers are locals. The smaller the town, the older that clientele is likely to be. So, the food needs to be cheap for a couple reasons. Older folks and those living in small towns generally have lower incomes and are less prone to spend it on finer dining. To ensure the restaurant is regularly filling up, they need those locals to be coming several days a week. If the food costs much more than it costs to eat at home, the locals will just eat at home. Really, they’re making the same exact food their customers would make at home and just charging a bit extra to save them the hassle of cooking for themselves. Additionally, someone that’s going to eat at the same place multiple days a week is going to want absolute consistency. That’s much easier to do with cheap, processed food than it is with farm to table. Point being, while small town folks may want better options locally, they won’t actually support them enough for those places to survive. Nobody is driving from Austin to Liberty Hill for a good meal that they could get here for a few more dollars. Even in the places with a lot of through traffic, it’s harder for the more expensive places. Let’s say I’m driving through some random town and want to stop for a bite. I see two options, one where the parking lot is nearly full and one where there’s only a few cars. I’m more likely to pick the busy one on the assumption that it’s better. But it might not be. It might just be the cheaper one that everybody goes to several days a week rather than the good restaurant they only splurge at once a month. Wow. What a weird rant I just went on.
