I can’t stand Bar Rescue, Taffer really does have the most punchable face, it’s like on par with Penn from Penn and Teller.

That was a wild episode. Did you know after that first episode business was booming for a while? People went out of their way to try to see their rudeness. But I guess the food overall didn’t make it worth it.

It happens, my guilty pleasure is Kitchen Nightmares and related shows. Gordon and or his camera crew have been assaulted twice from memory. They get broken up crazy fast though. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are more that don’t make it to camera. They are trying to tell a different story in each episode, so I am sure a brawl kind of derails that story telling.

Its just infuriating, if I were worse at math or hadn’t been in the industry before I would have come up with an answer that was not even close to correct.

Also does boolean logic not work on searches anymore?

But 5 to 1 part isn’t 1/5 it’s 1/6 isn’t it? I dont drink a lot of soda, but used to be on the sales side in a prior life. So I am going off what the internet says on mixing. I assume because some syrup brands/packs have significantly different caloric counts that the ratio isn’t the same brand to brand or restaurant to restaurant.

You might be on to the weird relationship thing, but IDK if it’s positive or negative for them. McDonalds specifically gets different packs than other places. Different size, shape, everything… So maybe they get thicker syrup or something. Something has got to be going on if my search was to be believed, because they are paying much more per pack and I don’t remember them being significantly bigger.

A 5 gallon bag o syrup costs around 50 - $100 depending on volume discounts and what part of the US. At a 5 to 1 ratio, that’s 30 gallons per bag. Assuming each cup is 12oz (they do put in a lot of ice usually) that’s 320 servings (assuming no spillage).

So it costs McDonalds or similar 15 - 30 cents per soda they sell in soda costs, and 11 cents for the cup lid straw combo. So assuming it’s still a dollar, that’s between 74 to 59% profit based on volume discount the specific place has with coca cola. So not really 100% profit, but still high. And no the cup doesn’t cost more, if that were ever true it was for a brief moment in history.

As a side note fucking Googles LLM make this type of research hard by spitting fake info at you. It keeps quoting 16 cent cost for the entire soda, but the syrup alone costs at least 15 cents.

Huh, mines backwards… I wonder if people with “no filter” are similar. I just take a long time to process conversations, it’s actually exhasting.

My dad was blown away when he had to go do work at auto plants overseas in Europe (prob germany?) and the breakroom vending machines had beer in them. I guess there was a 2 beer unofficial limit. This was like 3 decades ago… So maybe it’s changed.

Duh? Otherwise the Salmon would already know why.

What if they were just doing it to make fun?

I remember being in gym class, secondary school a few decades ago and these two sexually prolific girls for lack of a better term, moderately popular, who would spend gym classes flirting and basically sexually molesting? (Idk what term to use when clothes are on) this nerdy kid most days in gym. Teacher only seemed to laugh when he noticed.

They would feel him up and tell him his balls were small or penis was crooked. It was fucked up.

Just make a law part of the funding bill, it’s relatived afterall.

They could just get rid of the filibuster.

This is actually a hilariously amazing idea. Put all the young progressive upper commers on the roster and the old gaurd will probably assume they will crash and burn, when in reality these shit talking heads never are challenged.

This would actually hit pretty hard as an art exhibit.

I think that people have tried, but the grifting is too easy and lucrative and that makes them a Republican.

Wait it’s like buy one get 3 free? What a bargain.

What other apps are like Nextdoor?

I mean maybe real life super villains are all lame nazis, the comparisons are from movies afterall.

Sorry, didn’t realize how vague the comment was. I wish someone would turn it into a movie or miniseries. It’s still one of my favorite scifi book series.

There is a sci fi series called the Damned Trilogy where warring space aliens stumble across humans and one faction enlists them because they are the most terrifyingly violent species they have ever stumbled upon.
