Time was something like this would get posted and there would be a goon meet shortly thereafter, and tryhard posters waxing homeric about the potential for economic rejuvenation of the citys urban core through terrible orange lasagna

Weve all been there. With an orange suit, cowboy cut lasagna and a goddamn American Dream :patriot:

Why was this such a big dream of that guy's? Garfield is not an inspirational or deep comic by any means. In any case it seems to be based mostly on the 2004 CGI crapfest starring Bill Murray. The funniest thing about that movie is the rumor that Bill Murray only signed on because he thought it was written by the Coen brothers but in actuality it was just some dude named Joel Cohen who writes all kinds of lovely movies. And of course, when you think of Garfield, of course the first thing that comes to mind is his incredibly well-known catchphrase, "love me, feed me, don't leave me". What the gently caress?

Why don't they just focus on making a really good lasagna? Why are the recipes crap if they took so long to develop? What's with these weird, bad ideas on how to reuse the grease-infused single use disposable packaging?

What was the thought process behind this? I just really want to understand.

Cowboy cut lasagna? What the gently caress? I feel like a person who doesn't understand sarcasm trying to really get the "deep meaning" behind some throwaway monkeycheese meta-joke. Even for a money laundering operation this would be poo poo.

The guy doing it is a gay Saudi Arabian failson whose oil baron dad gave him a bunch of money to keep him busy and out of the way

You know this probably wouldnt be so bad if he didnt try to compete with something like Uber eats. Like, if he invested all this effort and resources into the actual food it would basically just be a theme cafe. Then just sell overpriced unique lasagna , deserts shaped like Garfield characters, and concert priced merchandise.

I know right, just think of all the classic epic goon ownage we're missing out on:

-wading through the patina of journalists, bloggers, YouTubers, and podcasters that has surrounded the restaurant exhaustively documenting it for the past month to take a picture of the building indistinguishable from anyone else's

-recording placing a $60 order under the name Stairs N. House or Push R. Bot while fighting back chortles the whole time

-doing a five page write-up about how eating fast food is a tortuous near-death experience and tastes like a diarrhea dump from a caribou's rear end in a top hat

-making it 2005 again through science or magic so flash mobs, fauxtests, and goon meets are once again valid ways of annoying people who are just trying to work their lovely customer service job

Get it together Toronto!

I think this gets me more than just the idea of the restaurant the 'meta' (sorry, hate that word, but I guess it works) idea of this guy, overall.

Born into a position where, feasibly, anything is attainable in life and you can have or do or be given the means to accomplish pretty much anything you desire.
And you're such an annoying idiot that you're still given literally anything just to "please, just..please gently caress off forever, ok?"

Which he promptly does and uses his limitless 'please go away' fund to craft a project for himself that, when even looked at and considered by anyone who has NO IDEA of this...is still so annoying and lame that people want nothing to do with it.

The shear scale of personal ineptitude and dislike surrounding the man has to be palpable from rooms away even if you can't directly see him or are aware of his presence.

It's nice to know that even in cultures where being gay can get you executed there are still that special strain of priveleged rich gay dude who just obliviously fritters away at their dumb vanity projects while ignoring all the peers being ground into paste by the system they sit high atop.

Just checking, does his book actually state he's gay, or is everyone assuming because it makes mention of his "sexuality" which could mean almost anything in Saudi Arabia? Not that it changes anything tho.

That video was made in March*, unless he built a time machine I don't think it's fair to criticize him for not having almost four months of updates and new information in that video.

*The same day as the OP made this thread, so there's a pretty good chance that it's exactly what led to this thread being created in the first place.
