My local mall recently got flooded so badly it will be closed for a year, whence it will reopen to another freak flood event and be condemned

Real shame, I had my first job there

You can even ride the car train which is a train where your car goes on a train car and so do you. It takes you to Disney World

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC

From this guy's perspective I'm struggling to see what anyone could do to help the environment beyond immediately committing suicide, and I'm not sure why he isn't leading the way if he really believes in this perspective.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Sweet go kart track though from the looks of it. Go karts are still cars but at least they're small. It'd make the commute a lot cuter

I'm skeptical that the math behind his premise even works out, but I'm not going to take the time to look into it, because that's never the real point of a contrarian article like that anyway.

Ah, Yorktown Mall. I went to a wedding at the Westin right before the Plandemic. It was actually stuffy in the "ballroom", so we hung out on the patio which overlooked the reed choked retention pond.

i am flying above burning mountains of discarded tires. i am swimming in a sea of oil that has seeped out of a pipeline at the bottom of the ocean. i am breathing in methane and exhaling carbon monoxide and each breath brings me closer to the edge of a parking lot that stretches out as far as the eye can see in every direction.

i thought the entire point of fast food was that it's fast. that's why people put up with the bad food right? when you are crunched for time at your lovely job and have 15 minutes for lunch your options are limited. that makes sense to me. so who are these psychos waiting hours for some of the lowest quality food available? is this some sort of brand worship thing?

I can't even remember the last time it would've been faster for me to go through a drive thru for lunch versus popping into a grocery store for 3 minutes to grab something pre-made. It's a lot cheaper too!

at least prior to The Chicken Sandwich Wars there was an illusion of like "this is the only place to get this type of sandwich with this type of sauce." now every fast food restaurant offers the Chik-Fil-A style chicken sandwich and sauce, and the only one that's really definitively crappier than the rest is probably the burger king one

e: to be clear, time spent in a drive-thru by choice when you have the option of parking and going inside is like the tell-tale carbrain symptom, no matter what

I was also at the Westin for a thing years ago. It was November and it stayed right around freezing outside the entire time but every building was like 75 inside. My girlfriend and i were carrying our jackets wandering the mall in t-shirts sweating while everybody else was in their full "outside in the cold" clothes with scarves and everything.

Also the complete lack of pedestrian infrastructure was a total culture shock. Walking in the grass along the road, having to wait and figure out the traffic light pattern to run across 6 lanes of traffic because there are no sidewalks, no crosswalks, no pedestrian signals.

The only sidewalk we encountered outside of a parking lot was on an overpass that had a crosswalk from the grass on the shoulder on one side to the sidewalk and then just ended at nothing on the other side
