Yes! How on earth did the shittiest pillow ever made make so much money? His secret is his patented filler? Uh...you mean cut up pieces of foam in a sack Mike?

I've found that it depends on the manager whether or not the place is okay. The one in my town is always busy.

That's already an X company (padum tss.)

KFC is not so bad and is keeping standard, at least here in Poland - in KFC meat look like meat. McDonalds on the other hand is just a crappy shadow of what it used to be... And the prices are so pumped up it is in fact cheaper to eat a decent meal in a regular restaurant than at McDonalds.

This always makes me laugh. Papa Johns quality is exactly the same today as it was in the 90's. Nothing has changed there, it's just that there are better options more widely accessible today....they're comparatively worse, but functionally identical.

If you must get food poisoning get it from here tho.... Awesome food! 🤣

Jersey Mike's is better than all 3 of those.

Wow, blast from the past. I remember them and Spencer's Gifts in the mall back in the 80's. I also loved the smell of Swiss Colony.

It's GOT to be better than Comcast & Spectrum.

Fry's was nerd heaven. A combination of Radioshack and a physical manifestation of newegg. I don't understand how Fry's could shutter it's doors while Microcenter is doing the same exact thing and expanding at a frenzied pace.

The CEO of that company needs to go to the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, where Buffalo Wings originated. Then compare those wings with what they make at Buffalo Wild Wings.

Oh, and btw, it's not that you have to be Mormon to work there. It's more that you have to be related to the owning family. Which is terrible.

Sears makes me sad. They've been around since 1893, they sold over 70,000 pre-fab houses between 1908 and 1942, most of which are still standing to this day. They were an american institution. K-mart, while it's been around nearly as long (and cratered due to a botched sears merger) has been viewed, at least for all my 40 years, as a cheap and trashy store. Really think about that. Think of how many "people of wal-mart" listicles exist today, and realize that k-mart still has a worse customer reputation.

They don't survive on joe/jane public. For the vast majority of their business, they operate off of business accounts.

I like Burger King. I hate that I have to pay an additional .60 cents for a piece of cheese and I don't know that I've ever gotten hot onion rings but the taste of their burgers and quality of toppings is far superior to McDonalds. OP is correct though, I have no idea how the one in our town is still open because if there are 2 cars in the parking lot that's busy for them. During the same time frame the McDonalds next door is slammed.

Our Burger King is slammed after bar close.

yeah in my country too, it's unpopular compared to McDonald's and KFC here

They're better than McDonalds, at least Burger King food has some flavor

Known as Hungry Jack's in Australia, burgers do tend to be more believable that McDs

What happened to Burger King? In the UK we don't have the same takeaway chains as the US, and I'm not a big one for big takeaway franchises either (rather support a local business and the food is better), but I really did like the Burger King bean burger. Casey Jones also used to do one but they went out of business/got bought out **years** ago, so I relied on BK for my occasional splurge. Then in the last couple of years they dumped the bean burger (which had recognisably pieces of actual bean in it and was nicely spiced) for some god awful veggie concoction. Our local BK had closed down so we'd had to drive to another town to get our takeaway as well. They can get in the sea as far as I'm concerned, I'd been enjoying their bean burger for 25 years, and somehow they knew better.

I'm amazed they ever existed. Toasted sandwich bread? I'm on board. But when you try to hand me a sandwich with hot, or even warm lettuce and deli meats? Repulsive. When i was in high school, there was a blimpies, and a quizno's with a clothing store in between. I had friends that worked in each after school. I would go into quizno's and get just toasted bread, and then take it over to blimpies to assemble the sandwich. Excellent end result that ended up being cheaper then just buying something off the menu.

They've shut them all down here in the NY/NJ area for not paying their employees enough.

They certainly make money per transaction. If you go to an actual restaurant's menu online and then compare the prices on doordash, you'd be surprised to see that they don't match! Doordash prices are $1-$3 more! Found this out when hubby and I were looking at menus online. Me on doordash, him on google since he doesn't have the app. Stopped ordering from doordash after that!

I've had 2 and neither preformed nearly as well as the cheap Amazfit that I bought before them.

Aww man. I remember after I got my license, I would stop for Timbits and a cuppa before class almost every day. Now, meh. They have them in the states now too and I had to stop once when we were driving through a town and spotted one just for the nostalgia. I think people assume that because I'm Canadian I have some ingrained loyalty to the brand, but like most of us, when I hear the name I just shake my fist angrily at the sky.

They closed down my local one but there is still one in the o2 so can't be all bad. However, I did notice that it was one of the only places that didn't either have to be booked or have a queue a mile long for a table so that probably says something.

F*** mapquest and their f***ed up "directions" through West Virginia in the 90s. That trip I learned country people might not always be so friendly/helpful and might introduce you to their gun collection in a not so friendly manner.

Equifax, alone of the big three, locked my credit account so no one could access it. Even they don't know why. When I called them and complained they told me that in order for my account to be unlocked, they want me to send them a photocopy of my DL, SS card, and one bill received at my address. By snail mail. I told them they were seriously deranged if they expected me to do that and they could just leave it locked.

Ugh. I don't know anything about this company, but I see their ads sometimes, and they look very sketchy. Some of their pictures of therapists are of attractive women in revealing clothes doing therapy sessions from their bedroom. No real therapist would do that.

Love Hardee's biscuit and gravies

It depends on the location. I live in an affluent suburb and our Party City store is always busy. Not unusual for people here to spend hundreds on party supplies, especially their nice balloons. It's probably the same in most suburban areas. Imagine how many kids have bday parties on weekends and get their party supplies there. Not to mention other kinds of parties. Plus they deliver balloons! So convenient.
