Lol...mooby you’ve been on a boomer tear lately.

Boomer restaurants typically are erected within the parking lots of strip malls or on within walking distance of box retail stores. Someplace you can sitting down, consume 3,500 calories within 20 minutes and then afterwards stroll the aisles of a Lowe’s or Petsmart attempting not to shit your pants before you make it back home.

Seems like I struck a nerve with the Cracker Barrel comment. I've just never liked that place, it feels like going to a restaurant to eat a home cooked meal. If I wanted a home cooked meal I would've stayed home damnit!

Anyways my gears are being grinded today by Dan Snyder's incessant need to make money on everything.

Me and a friend just bought tickets to Rammstein at Fedex Field in August, the presale just started and we've been Rammstein stans for like 15 years now so ofc we have to go see them in the first US tour in like 8 years.

Fedex Field is literally the only stadium on the 10 stadium NA tour that is charging for parking, and it's not even pennies on the dollar they're asking for. Dan wants $50 for a parking pass. God fucking damnit Dan, why do you have to be so sheisty?

I really only go for breakfast .To me it's Howard Johnson's 2.0 ,it's not the fast food place that's bad for you but where you can go and sit down and rest a bit .

Many Cracker Barrels are very close to Hotels which is a smart move on their part.

I lived in Southern California when the Howard Johnson's restaurants started disappearing, there was still one in Riverside Ca when I lived there in the mid 90's.
