@MentORPHEUS $60 for a couple of lousy sandwiches and some sides?! I used to expect that for room service at a fancy hotel, not at a deli. WTF.
oh, btw...
@MentORPHEUS they just keep raising prices and then people stop going so they raise prices even further, so then...
I'm not up on French politics, so a passing reference someone made in a podcast to Emmanuel Macron, and his wife's penis caught my attention so I gave the Wikipedia page of each of them a quick spin. Got'DAMN what a rabbit hole that was, with lots of RP relevance.
I'd recently caught some history of the deliberate inbreeding of European Royal Families in centuries past. This seems like some next level fuck-upedness compared even to that.
Any European TRP members able to shed better light on all of this?
Read More@redpillschool I never eat out nowadays, it's been a couple years now since I dined in a sit down restaurant. So finally yesterday I took my 80yo Mom out for a late lunch to a "New York style deli/bakery" place. Large nice dining area, bus your own table after they bring your order out to you type of place.
So anyway, we ordered Sandwiches- pastrami and pulled brisket. No sides, no drinks. The portions were good, and the tallow fries and onion rings that come with were delicious. All that said, it was a sticker shock that the bill for this parsimonious lunch for two came to nearly 60 bucks!
Granted it was slow time midway between the lunch and dinner rushes. The place was cavernously empty, 3 other parties total and 3 door dashers who came and went. This was my firsthand experience of the sentiment I keep hearing over and over, that "people aren't going to restaurants any more!"

@SeasonedRP I appreciate the effort of the response, but still find the underlying assumptions fatally flawed.
Part of the problem, lies in the American Right's cultural aversion to consider culture and economics through a CLASS lens, as if doing so is tantamount to willfully stepping onto a nearly vertical slippery slope into full-on acceptance and practice of Marxism/socialism/communism-->bad and anti-American.
Even those individuals you name, who may give public lip service and financial donations to Left leaning social causes, often have economic ulterior motives mixed in. This notwithstanding, their position at the apex of power and control over the large numbers of workers in their businesses and organizations, places them squarely in the Bourgeois class, completely apart from the working stiff proles who actually perform the work.
Working and middle class people support the right.
Because they are most blind to the above structural reality. I find it breathtakingly absurd hearing working class folks, particularly blue collar, enthusiastically supporting the likes of Elon Musk and Donald Trump, with a sense of personal kinship which in reality holds 0% reciprocity from his end.
FWIW, even people working at the ground and lower levels within organizations like Environmental groups that take large grants from the likes of Soros, will take the money, but harbor no illusions that these apex benefactors exist in any way as "One of us." Wealthy people, whether donors or board/upper management class, don't bother to pitch through left coded channels to left leaning audiences, any "Greetings, fellow working class stiffs!" bullshit, as they're much quicker to see right through such a farce.
Read More@Lone_Ranger Sure enough, you're an out and proud Thread-o. Your username is certainly all over the flight logs of the Brolita Expeess.
@SeasonedRP Jeez, man... just how far will you try to stretch a "Left bad, and at the root of all problems " idea/narrative, to try to get it to fit reality???
This isn't even difficult to work through. ALL the higher echelons of all the corporations across all the economic sectors, include hardly anyone right wing???
Defense, energy, manufacturing, mining, agriculture, hospitality, private equity, banking, finance, construction et al... hardly anyone wearing $5000 suits in the boardrooms of all the corporations us right wing???
Admit that sounds preposterous.
Apparently you missed my point.
Not at all, but rather you missed mine.
Right Wing people aren't the only people driven by profits and/or greed to the point of being foolish, and if they were right wing, that CEO and other woke crap the company has done wouldn't have happened.
@Typo-MAGAshiv top soon for some perhaps. Charlie Kirk did sit on the far, good side of the bell curve of debate style and rhetorical habits, though I see that got partially facilitated by the standard having dropped so low.
Charlie's biggest gift was his ability to rapidly read people, not unlike a good/effective fortune teller, medium, evangelist, or even Confidence Man, though I don't attribute that type of malevolence to him personally. Very talented at leading people in a direction using gentle verbal methods, which happened to be American Right Wing.
He espoused some positions which "the Left "hold foundational disagreement with. But all the evidence so far, including the ham fisted cover up attempts, suggest that the culprits, yes plural, will prove not to be "blue haired Marxist Lefties silencing him over ideological disagreements " as got pushed out within the first hour after the shooting.
