I don't get it. Why would I want to go to dress up for some place and overpay for food if I can cook at home or order food in my undies. It makes no senseIs it some boomer thing?
>>246072261) it's fun being served. Food tastes better when someone else makes it for you.2) It always tastes better than the bland shit you make at home3) It's nice to get out and eat with other people and feel you are not alone.
>>24607226You're right Raj, no one wants to see your brown ass in public, stay home
>>24607227I can eat with other people at their place or mine. Though not in my underwear, which is off putting
>>24607227boomers
>>24607226jewish culture theatre pretending to be royalty with servants, part of the last reset that started in the second half of the 19th century.Chain restaurants started mid 20th century with interstate highways. Before that, there were pubs, diners, inns, and the occasional restaurant.
>>24607231So larping. That makes some sense. Still fucking retarded to pay to larp as rich when being poor fags. The cost to larp are seriously retarded. Like pay 20 bucks for some tiny Schnitzel when I can cook schnitzel all week long for 20 bucksAnd chain restaurants like McDonald's. 7 dollar for a quarter pounder when you can get a pound of ground beef for 7
>>24607226you sit down at a table and food magically appears. You eat it and leave. You don't even have to clean up after yourself. You can talk about interesting things with your dinner companions, uninterrupted by logistical banalities.
>>24607226Because sometimes it’s nice to get out of the house and have someone take care of the cooking, especially if it’s something exotic that you don’t have the time, materials, or skill to cook for yourself.Explain to me the concept of paying a third party to deliver less than $10 worth of junk food just so that you can sit around in squalor would be so appealing.
>>24607233I am currently eating while simultaneously being on here, x and discord. Boomers and their larps
>>24607232i dont even know how to cook schnitzel so how do you expect guys like me to get my schnitzel
>>24607234Junk food? The rare occasions I order in its usually some Thai food and using discounts that give me 20-50% off. hardly junk food. Probably the same you pay more to go to the same place and have to pay on top for fuel and get dressed and later for the dry cleaner
>>24607233so like amazon prime?
>>24607227>1) it's fun being served. Food tastes better when someone else makes it for you.The first Mutt to introduce jeet feces and nigger saliva as seasoning sold in a store will become a millionaire.
>>24607232It’s not larping. The fact that one can afford to dress reasonably civilized, not have to skimp on minor expenses, and doesn’t brag about it afterwards suggests its validity. Sometimes it’s just nice to get out. You should try it some time.
>>24607240Its a place you eat and overpay. Its not a conference or a buisness meeting. And before you say it, having meetings at a restaurant is retarded. Like nigger I want to make money not spend money on overpriced food and have to yell over 50 other larpers talking and you eating
>>24607232You can buy a quarter pound of beef for less than $7. But you have to cook it after paying another $6 for additional ingredients to make it. There are things far more wasteful than eating out once in a while. Running AC at too low a temperature all the time, driving aimlessly about in a car that isn’t fuel efficient, apps, gaming, collecting meme garbage.
>>24607242The egg is 20 cent, the spices are a few millicents, the bun 25 cent.I stay with it, restaurant all kind are apparently just for stupid poor people to larp as rich.
>>24607226People used to go to restaurants for dates but women dont talk to men anymore so no reason to go now.
Boomers like having the unwashed hands of strangers touch their food
>>24607244Don't get me started on tinder sluts that want to be taken out. Those are just whores that look to trade a fuck for an over priced meal. I gladly cook, but fuck taking something like that out. A real whore is cheaper then
I don't like the concept of tipping because it goes to the dumb broad that writes down an order and carries out plates. Meanwhile the kitchen is full of men who work 10x harder and have infinity more control over the taste of the food.I don't eat out unless I pay for the food in advance and can get it to go.
>>24607233This.Cooking for guests can be fun but it's also stressful and you inevitably miss out on a lot of fun by virtue of trying to serve 3 courses in a timely and properly cooked manner.Ofc friends will just get served a bowl of soup or something but the restaurant experience definitely serves a social and practical function.
>>24607226These exists to elevate an event giving you time to focus to exchange information to show your power on a neutral ground of course you a fucking low life fuck can't understand such thing.
>>24607226restaurants are overrated. the best food you could make needs only some simple supermarket shopping.
>>24607249>exchange information to show your power on a neutral groundwtf is wrong with you?
>>24607241I’ve been to lunch with a few coworkers. Usually chicken wings and a side or two for less than $12. There’s no yelling; just a few buds getting together smashing some of the finest wings this city has to offer. Nothing I want to take the time to make at home. Otherwise I like to get out with my wife or family. No arguments about what’s for dinner, she gets a break from trying to come up with something interesting on a hot night. When you travel, you’re dependent on others cooking for you for the most part. We tried a few nights of “cooking at home” to save money in Mexico. Couldn’t compete with someone else preparing the food on a busy tourist schedule.
>Why pay for labor when i can just workNot everyone is poor
>>24607226It's about the atmosphere and the experience. You can't get a draught beer served out of a waitress's ass at home.
>>24607226Personally i like going to places where i can drink beer and get something to eat without having to worry about cleaning up.
>>24607252If you gut cucked down by a spouse and have a bunch of gremlins, that's the only aspect I can understand, but going to a restaurant with friends, nah, tried it a few times always felt ripped off, then started to decline the invites.You know there are supermarkets and farmer markets abroad, and usually cheap motels, hotels and hostels often have guest kitchens.
The Western concept of a restaurant first appeared in France in the 1750s. The word itself comes from the French "restaurer," to refresh oneself. -- So, you should think of it as a break from having to cook for yourself.
>>24607243Stay home, be cheap. Hooray for you!Maybe don’t worry about everyone else’s rationale for going out to eat. Seriously we get it: you’re poor, you prefer not going through all that work putting your pants on all by yourself. We’re not you. We like getting out, having someone else fuss over the cooking and cleaning up afterwards. It’s not larping as being rich. It’s just shit normal people do. Don’t think too hard on it.
>>24607236I don’t even know what schnitzel is, so how would I ever find out if I couldn’t go to a restaurant?
>>24607226Read you own post zoomer and explain this to me, why are you such a fucking faggot? This is how it reads you the rest of us>EXPLAIN the concept of a social place>Me>Is about me>Everybody look at me>Me, me, meHave you thought no one gives a fuck about you?
>>24607258I am all but poor, and I suppose its not to a small degree that I simply refuse to partake in social rituals that make in my eyes no sense and produce only costs
>>24607226I'm not a fan of restaurants either. Women love them, but I don't like being served. Bars are better because you don't have to wait there for your server or waiter's permission to leave your assigned seat.
>>24607262I lied. Bars still suck, but you're treated like someone who needs to eventually pay a tab, rather than someone who is being controlled for access to their menu.
>>24607263Bars are weird too. Depressing. Bunch of people drinking over priced alcohol and starring at their phones
>>24607256I guess I’m not as cheap as I thought I was. Congrats for being more of a miser than myself. If you can’t have a good time with people and food, maybe restauranting just isn’t your thing. Most people actually enjoy the company of friends and family- especially if there’s a cozy meal to share.
>>246072261. You don't have to dress up unless it's got Michelin stars. Just wear jeans and a t shirt. 2. Because you don't feel like cooking today.
>>24607226Social interaction. It's a greet place to go with a large group where everyone can relax and enjoy each others company. That is the only reason for restaurants. But I suppose, back in the day, it was also a place for workers and bachelors to get a meal.
Just go back to your shithole you filthy nigger.
>>24607254That's how you get pink-eye, anon.
>>24607226If you are so retarded that you need something so simple as dining out explained to you then I will not waste my time forcing you to understand basic concepts and will instead make this post calling you a retarded faggot
>>24607261You probably don’t enjoy peoples company in general hence the antisocial choice of fashion at home. Your inability to comprehend social norms like paying to break bread with others has no bearing on the choices of others. It’s just the pointless whining of a social outcast at this point.
>>24607265All honesty, I prefer a picnic. Homemade food, relaxing outdoor atmosphere, plenty of space for kids to run around and play, fresh air and sunshine. Then you can feed the left-overs to the local wildlife.
>>24607226social stuff and women pretty much mandate dates and to "go out" so they can have a reason to put on their expensive clothes
>>24607271House parties at somebody else place are chill. I just don't like over paying for things I can have for cheap or free
>>24607272True. Some barbequing at a river makes sense. Can get some discount meat at expiration date that doesn't have to be stored, discount six packs and the river is free
>>24607264That’s referred to “unwinding”. Sadly, our population is in the shitter with the death of dance clubs and the popularity of bars. The whole point of dance clubs was to interact with the opposite sex, try to sell yourself as worthy through dance and conversation. Sometimes you went home with someone, sometimes you got a number and a future date.Bars are like restaurants: you go there specifically to drink. Maybe you loosen up and talk with the group at the next table but social norms discourage actual interaction with strangers. Hitting on other customers is a no-no.
>>24607226boomer men couldn't cookso they married wives that couldbut the wives had limited repertoirealso the wives would burn out on cooking all the timeso occasional trips to the neighborhood slop house would take placeyounger generations are just fine with microwaveable dinners
>>24607227Woman spotted.
>>24607278Jeet smelled.
>>24607276Last time I was in a dance club nothing but browns, 40 something weirdos, loud, over priced and generally off putting, felt like standing in a large room sized mass toilet.
>>24607226Who do you think is "dressed up" lol
>>24607226For me it's to eat things i dont want to cook myself due to scale (e.g. say you want some sushi, you want a couple pieces of a large variety of different fish, not to buy large pieces of sushi grade fish. Im not eating a pound of raw salmon before i goes bad), specialized equipment and variety of ingredients (i want a stone fired pizza woth x y and z on it, you can't buy the toppings for "just one", and i didnt already have dough lying around, and they'll have it ready for me to pick up in 20 minutes), or cleanup (i dont deep fry things at home, ive done it, but thats a pain in the ass to clean up after.)I dont really eat out anything that i can make easily at home myself and enjoy in comfort; like i dont go to steak houses because it's the easiest goddamn thing to cook in the world; but if it's like sushi or a pizza or creme-based sauce pastas n such, or ethnic things like pho or a kebab or mexican ill go out for that
>>24607281At a house party nobody cares if I show up in shorts and some T-shirt I got from my mom when I was 15. And alone at home no clothes at all needed
>>24607283Nobody gives a fuck
>>24607284Of course the owners just want my money to get their profit margins, which I am not willing to pay
>>24607242>There are things far more wasteful than eating out once in a while.That's a fine way of putting things. I live in a smaller community without a tremendous selection of places to go. The last time I dined-out I treated a co-worker to one of the local buffet spots - standard westernized Chinese offerings. It's a good option if you're feeling famished. >>24607236Essentially you just flatten the meat with a hammer, dip it in whipped-up egg, dunk it in breadcrumbs, and pan fry it in olive oil I think.
>>24607286Yes. That's how you make schnitzel.
>>24607241just fuck off jew
>>24607288>You have to be a jew to not be scammed
>>24607227>Food tastes better when someone else makes it for you. It's the opposite for me, I just know some gross brown person is in the kitchen touching my food with his feces riddled hands and that ruins my appetite
Sometimes you have cabin fever and want to leave your home for the sake of it. Just for the novelty of it.
>>24607227>2) It always tastes better than the bland shit you make at homeOnly this one is true.>1) it's fun being served.>3) It's nice to get out and eat with other people and feel you are not alone.No it's fucking not. Some angry underpaid faggot with a chip on his/her shoulder for making poor life choices does not make good company or good service.I'd rather order out and eat at home. People at restaurants are loud and stupid, annoying at best.
>>24607280The last time I was at a venue it was full of Christians, and a family member. You might as well cut your fucking dick off if you go out with people like that. It was funny seeing a married lead pastor "not" flirt with a single woman who came up and talked to us, though. I swear, every interaction I have with evangelicals makes me somehow hate them even more than I did.
>>24607282This. This right here. Eating out is perfect when the juice just isn't worth the squeeze, in terms of making it yourself, or if you've just had a very long day and you know if you make something yourself it's just going to be lazy slop.
>>24607294You can order in from most places and the delivery apps pretty much always have discounts
>>24607295I almost always pick it up myself. I lived just outside of a city, and the delivery drivers were niggers half the time. I'm not ordering ramen with a side of niggerspit included because I didn't tip half the cost of the order.
>>24607226its basically a holiday but smaller and more widely affordable and easy to fit into your schedule that's literally itsomething nice where you can just forget about responsibility for oncesometimes you get to do it with friends, family or a lover and when everyone can kick back unwind and not have to worry or care about shit you can really have some deep talks and build stronger relationship bondsit might not matter much to you if you're some dirty fuckin' neet or societal leech and so responsibility and friendship isn't something you experience very often, maybe
>>24607226It's cuz yer not the best cook in the world, you fucking egomaniac
>>24607297Maybe. I consider friendship transactional in nature. I don't need it, I can provide it, if it pays and doesn't bore me.
>>24607227>it's fun being served. Food tastes better when someone else makes it for you.Enjoy.
>>24607283yeah just go to house parties all the time, you have ease and access to "social capital" you can leave other people out of your clique for not being as "hip" or "cool" as you are. Pay no mind to the toll this creates and what kind of social atmosphere it promotes like rigid conformity and more classism
