Or amusement parks. Really anywhere where the only options are their stuff
When did Five Guys get so cheap?
Ain't that the truth!
well fancy polished restaurant, where they have a menu with fancy burger names, 2-3 different ketchup's and some fancy plates.
This applies to hotels as well.
food at colombian beaches be like
Same for airport. Oh no we have to throw your water bottle (I bought 24 for $3) at security screening, but 10ft after there is a store selling those exact same bottle for $6 EACH
I think you can drink your water, but keep the bottle and then refill it in the other side of security
This is absolutely true and so easy to do. You can also bring as many dry snacks as you want.
Macross reference?!
That's the most specific and obscure reference I've gotten here at Lemmy since I've joined, and what a good one! That track slaps, and the whole album is 😙🤌
keep on jammin 🥂
Complaining about the prices at ski resorts and amusement parks is peak first world problems.
I've never been to a ski resort, never flown on an airplane, never went to a baseball game or concert. How are people affording these luxuries? I'm in the top 10% of earners and my money goes to housing and retirement. I'm still clipping coupons for groceries every week.
You should have been born to wealthy parents instead of trying to pull your self up by your own boot straps.
I think it's less the feeling of actual, serious persecution and more just an intense annoyance at the perceived unfairness of obviously skeezy business practices.
Nobody likes being on the receiving end of "Lol because I/we can, that's why. What are you gonna do about it?"
Just because something else is worse somewhere else, doesn't mean people can't complain or feel cheated.
and airports
Funnily enough McDonald's outside the airport walls is getting very close to the ones within the walls.
Feels like everywhere now. Baseball parks. Movie theaters. Rodeo.
"Woah, you smuggled in your own food!?"
"Heh, yeah kid. This ain't my first ~~rodeo~~ baseball game movie."
I agree, however they still shouldn't be charging 8 million dollars for food.
In fairness to ski resorts they do have additional overheads.
Its harder to get supplies in, workers are seasonal and either have to be provided housing or paid more to cover eyewatering seasonal rents, heating... not to say they dont tack on a big "Because you have no other option" tax.
I wonder how many years will need to pass before people see this meme and wonder why ski resorts are selling burgers and fries so cheaply...
Let's be real 10 years from now nobody is gonna be skiing anymore. ☀️♨️🥵
There'll still be rich cunts heli boarding, but yeah almost all the ski lifts will end up closing down from lack of revenue due to not enough up time due to unpredictable weather.
Oh and indoor fields like the one in dubai and Auckland, nz will presumably still operate, unless the sport in general just becomes really unpopular.
We'll be skiing in Siberia when the temperature is no longer -40 (any degree)
We can water ski once the earth is covered in ocean.
I didn't know Waterworld was a documentary!
With shorter snow seasons due to climate change, those may be the cheapest prices we ever see again.
Now do an airport that happens to be at a ski resort
Pretty much everyone flies into Geneva Airport for the french resorts; the Montreux Jazz Cafe is the biggest restaurant there.
Just looked it up, their burgers are 26 to 30 euros.
Actually fairly reasonable for Geneva
