i've had cheap cupcakes from the grocery store that are like $5 for half a dozen and expensive ones from a gourmet bakery that are like $5 a cupcake.

and the fancy ones are better....but are they %500 better?

no...maybe....50-75% better tops

I guess this is why Americans are so fat.

lol who would have thought that buying gas-inefficient vehicles meant you paid more when gas went up? This is impossible to predict.

Luckily, I heard on the Rush Limbaugh Show that Obama forced everyone into driving econoboxes, which means everyone has a fuel-efficient vehicle now!

ive poked into the books of a place that was similarly insanely overpriced but korean and they estimated that 95% of their business was gifting

and of course the perversity of it is that you need to puff up a gift as expensive if its to be a nice gift from the person that cares about that sorta thing

which is how you get a gift basket of grapes priced at equivalent of 45 usd

Except this is X deliveries of food that have to be packaged and shipped instead of just one piece of junk to be thrown away. The packaging alone probably generates more plastic garbage than one single piece of junk, let alone the additional fossil fuels.

Best part about that is they'll be so excited to work for $11/hr they won't notice they could be walmart greeters for $15/hr. "$11 an hour?!? They only paid me $1/hr in the 70s! Wow!"

Meanwhile the drive thru will be backed up into the street as the service time doubles and seniors are filling their Depends while working the grill.
