Costco is weird, it's like a Capitalist's wet dream and somehow also really Socialist in its policies

John Galt probably shops there

For some reason watch enthusiasts really put a lot of stock into how AP created the sports watch or some nonsense, so somehow they get a pass on their incredibly ugly as gently caress designs sold for insane prices.

It has never made sense to me.

Though they didn't even "invent" sports watches, common misconception

So is the quality of Costco gas like, going to balance out the 2% cheaper price or whatever if it fucks your car up later down the line? I always fear those super discount gas places because it seems like there must be corners cut somewhere and usually it's quality control that goes first

My wife and I biked past a costco today. I suggested having lunch there at the food court and she said, "We should go to Red Robin, we can do better than the Costco Food Court."

I'm single now.

Red Robin has pretty good burgers for a chain restaurant though, and the garlic fries are top tier

I mean the bun is probably 100 calories

lettuce and tomato are nothing

sauce is like 40 calories

cheese is like 40 calories

So is the patty 950 calories??

so 150 calories for the Kings Hawaiian bun and 300-ish for the patty once a lot of the the fat has cooked off

40 for cheese, 40 for sauce and we're still missing like 600 calories

As a hardass man I never cry, but the only thing that gives me a lump in the throat is when I see my fellow man choking up over something he loves, doubly so when it involves Costco

excellent monologue though, at the end when he talks about parents he saw in the hospital was some [real. rear end. poo poo.]

It's pretty funny how Costco makes basically every other company look like poo poo

Not only does it make a shitload of money and have a basically perfect reputation for saving customers money and giving them exactly what they want, they also do an amazing job taking care of their staff and yet still, again, find some way to make money hand over fist

Like it's some kind of weird intersection between socialism and capitalism and somehow makes both look good, it's kinda mind boggling

It's almost like other companies are run by greedy pieces of poo poo that could give their staff more money but don't for their own gain :confused:
