if your server is doing this it's because innumerable people before you have managed to fuck up eating out

we have something called a menu which you can choose your food from

Now before you get your food, you're definitely gonna wanna make sure you have the mechanics down, so I'd like everyone to just open and close their mouths a few times, get those jaw muscles good and warm because let me tell you, if you haven't had food before, you don't know how much you're going to need them in a second

That man isn't stealing your scraps or homeless, he's just bussing your table.

My experience:

"Oh, well, here you need to download an app, consent to everything the app wants to do and register with your phone number. Then you can order and walk to the kitchen to pick up the food you ordered. Also, leave a tip if you enjoyed the service."

I would walk out and never return to any place that forces me to install an app

At least around where I am, the places that use an app provide a tablet with that app to order on.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

That would be ideal. The place I visited did not provide any such options.

I feel like this is basically every action horror story ever as well....

"Forget everything you've seen in the movies, the only way to kill a Vampire is put a stake through the heart! Guns are useless!"

Ugh, that's like D&D games where they're like, your character has no idea about what a vampire is because folklore doesn't exist in this universe so no one has ever shared a story ever.... even though the party has a bard who sings about things people have heard

Right? We don't need to spend 7 chapters of a 9 chapter story going "Why does this really old, really rich guy only come out at night and talk about not drinking wine!?!?!" When, the fucking cover of the story says "The Vampire Killer 3: The Vampire That Kills"

Where's the "we want plates" lemmy community? I loved that one on the other site.

Be the change you want to see in the world.
