I don't think I've started a week yet. Hooray me! Golden Corral all week long!

who does he think he is? Mick Foley?

Oh I remember Norths! Were they only in the Pacific Northwest or did they expand beyond?

can't seem to pinpoint any surviving chuckwagons, but the one my family went to was in sw idaho (nampa/caldwell area)

somehow the sizzler survived and the golden corral moved in, one less place to visit when i go back before i die

It better be. Let's see how you would feel if you plopped down 3/4 of a Jackson and caught someone thinning the trough.

Funny thing is the manager is actually trying to explain to the customer that the soup comes in a concentrate and is diluted to serve.

This guy must imagine gramma is back there, boiling down one of the old birds that stopped laying last month. Gingham dress and a kettle on the boil. Sorry to pop that bubble, but he's getting shitty canned soup for that 15 beans which ought to piss him off far more than a little extra water.

For my part, I'd not be caught dead in such a place. A fool and his money, etc etc.

Its a buffet, the soup simmers for hours so they add some water every once and a while.

I was joking.

Soup is no joke.

It's serious business. Just look at that fucking stock. He's got _pasta_ in it, and it's just sitting there simmering. For hours. Have people just lost the will to live, eating in places like this? It baffles me.

It's not hard to imagine someone having a moment of life-destroying realization while staring at a Golden Corral buffet.

I ate there a bunch on my bike trip. It's not too bad. If you need to eat thousands of calories a day, it's a really great choice.

This is an excellent comment and you should be commended for making it

You earned these meme.

Well, at least soups are somewhat transparent. Those stews are thick as thieves.
