My thoughts, in order.

"Hah, dumb photoshop. Obviously it's meant to say flashlight."
"Actually, that's a surprisingly good photoshop."
"What's a public flashlight, though? Never heard of that. I guess it makes sense as a public safety thing on a beach, it gets pretty dark at night. But why is it on a chain? How does this work?"
"Is it for signaling your friends, maybe? Spotting people in the water?"
"Where is this, anyway?"

Goons sure are preoccupied with making sure everyone knows they have sophisticated and adventurous palates.

Someone could post about ripping the liver right out of a stray dog and eating it raw, and goons would be like "actually dog liver is a fine cut, sorry for your baby tastebuds"

Sorry for the month old quote, but literally just yesterday in DnD I saw "actually meat with boar taint is perfectly fine, sorry about your bland tastes"

Holy loving hell was that guy right. I have never in my life seen so much unashamed gluttony in one place.

Yeah, it's something else. Good lord. Ends up being cheaper than a movie and the entertainment is always well worth it.

Also it doesn't matter when you go, you are guaranteed to see headliner NACHO NIÑO no matter what. It may not be cheese, but there absolutely will be a kid in a highchair flinging food around like one of those robot toys where the arms pinwheel like crazy, and both of his or her parents will be oblivious (gotta keep your DPS up, after all).

I think my favorite Golden Corral event was seeing a 8- or 9-year-old kid faceplant at full speed into the heaping plate of mashed potatoes and sawmill gravy he was carrying. Just sprinting as fast as he could with outstretched arms and trips (probably slipped on a chocolate-drenched chicken leg) and BOOM facedown on the floor, covered in potatoes and gravy. Poor kid looked like he was there for that big pie fight in The Three Stooges.

His mom just kept eating :allears:

I live in a city in SW Ontario that has three Chinese buffets in a town of <100,000, and after reading those posts, it made me realize that the poo poo I saw at the cheapest $10 buffet was nothing compared to those posts. I'm almost fascinated by how worse it gets than anything I've ever experienced.

It almost makes me want to put a travel group together just to visit some and compared observations.



I still see nothing wrong with this :colbert:

While you should rightly be both, you should be slightly sadder than happier.

It's a fantastic celestial collision of staff consisting of bored teenagers, obese gluttonous shameless patrons that will complain about anything and everything and throw a loud public tantrum if the fresh mac & cheese isn't out RIGHT AT NOON WHEN IT SHOULD BE DAMNIT I'M A PAYING CUSTOMER, and unsupervised children. All of these things meet at high velocity and create a veritable supernova of "What the gently caress?"

The food isn't great, but you don't go for the food--you go for the entertainment.

When I was 10 I ate at Hometown Buffet for the first time and then went home and barfed. And that's my buffet story.

The only good buffet is Souplantation, which I believe rightly has a new name.

Before the one here got shutdown (for health code violations I think) I would go there and just to fill up on rolls and that honey butter stuff.

I think I've been to GC once in my life. I don't remember anything entertaining from it though

The one in Gainesville just closed down when all the Ryan's did, I think. Food wasn't terrible for the price.

Then they opened another buffet that was open for a few months, closed for remodeling, then never opened back up.

These high-G injections have some serious side effects after pulling so many jumps.

Casual dining buffets in the south are magical places. Not just the chain ones--there are feisty independent buffet places with weird customers AND weird food. Breaded and fried broccoli already mixed with hot liquid cheese. Just thinking about that slowly congealing mass in the buffet warmer dish makes me a little queasy.

Here in Oklahoma we call that a "casserole". It's good for you because it's got broccoli in it.

While I can't account for the horrible parents, a lot of denizens at Golden Corral and similar places are senior citizens who are too old or inept to cook their own meals and go to places like this because old people like to loiter in eating establishments since they have little else to do when their kids won't visit or care for them.
