r/ShitAmericansSay is full of stuff like this. "The Europoors are coming here and seeing superior American inventions like ranch dressing and Costco." The latter makes British people laugh, because there are something like 30 Costcos in the UK, a large chunk of them in the London area.

Buc-ee's barely has more than 50 locations, so the vast majority of us have never so much as seen one.

The look on Kilmeade's face in that screenshot is priceless. "You are not seriously saying something this fucking stupid on my show, are you?"

I've eaten at Cracker Barrel and Chik-Fil-A exactly once each, just to say I've been there. The food was edible but forgettable at both. Waffle House, however, grabbed me. My last road trip was over 20 years ago now, but I rode my motorcycle through the Dirty South and once I tried my first WH, I planned my overnight stays near the Waffle House. I eat healthier now, but I don't regret those breakfasts!

As soon as you exit 149 off I-75, Byron Ga there is a Waffle House across the street from a Waffle House.

It’s a Waffle House singularity!

When I used to play music, waffle house was my main sustenance at 3am

I’ve written the solution to several software bugs on Waffle House napkins at 3am.

Because big city livin', we had three choices after the club shut down at 2 a.m.... Waffle House which had a decent patty melt, Huddle House because they actually sold french fries versus hash browns, and Famous Amos which had a killer Club Sandwich and fries all night long.

I liked all three.

On this more-or-less Fourth of July, I am proud to celebrate the American tradition, likely more than 400 years old, of capping an argument with the deadly pithy rejoinder "In a French accent."

This guy would like to believe his wedding tackle is so enormous that he needs a whole new toilet design. Buddy, the problem is your fat ass. In point of fact, given his BMI, he probably hasn’t seen his junk in years.

Just keep reminding yourself: They're evil AND stupid. They're evil AND stupid. Even Peter Thiel, who is evil and not stupid, is evil AND stupid. He thinks Greta Thunberg is the Antichrist! Evil! And stupid!

(Evan, this is hilarious.)

"UN Ambassador Matt Whitaker: "People are enjoying the United States of America because it's an awesome place. We have extraordinary things like Buc-ee's and Chick-fil-A, very convenient to eat in your car while you're having a phone call. It's an amazing country."

It doesn’t occur to him that some of those people are eating fast food in their cars because they live in them. That and he doesn't care.

Ta, Evan. We're getting out of town.

Yup. It’s official. America has no culture. Country Western music, NASCAR, the Corn Palace, and other examples of rural trash Americana don’t count.

What’s that? “Elitism?” “Classism?” Fuck off and die! I’d rather be a snob than a slob!

Actually, I think we do. For instance, we have classic American literature, Hemingway, Wharton, Hawthorne, etc., and art schools, like the Hudson River School, plus jazz, and many more things. When I visited DC once, I visited a museum with beautiful works of art, all owned by the American people. It's just that MAGA trash has never been interested in any of this, and would rather wallow in garbage.

Ellis Weiner's avatar

Tut, sir. America has culture: jazz, rock and roll, Abstract Expressionism, etc. It's rightwing America that has no culture.

Mister Bubbles's avatar

They are the trying to kill off the little true culture we have.

Ellis Weiner's avatar

I don't think so. They're trying to create a rightwing alternative culture. But they can't, because (as I keep saying) these reactionaires, authoritarians, and douchebags only believe either in their innate superiority, or in being obedient to those they consider superior. In neither case do they have the respect for truth, for self-knowledge, and self-examination necessary for the creation of art, or even the creation of decent entertainment. All culture is political to them, which means it always comes out, not as art or culture, but as propaganda.

I was just watching this guy's Youtube video about visiting a 7-11 in Japan. There was tons of healthy food, just rows of it, it made me want to cry. Meanwhile, here in the U.S., the 7-11s and the big corporations are trying to kill us every day with junk food - and many people don't even have access to anything else. Just so sad.

Mildred Pierce's avatar

OMG, yes, YES! I want a Japanese 7-11 on every corner!!! Those places are amazing. Fresh sandwiches, unbelievable snacks, you can even pay your local utility bills there.

I read that quote from Whitaker a week after I had returned from visiting Barcelona. We walked and took the train everywhere except for our taxi ride to the airport to go home. There were at least 5 small fruit markets within a 5 minute walk from our apartment. And not a fast food place in sight. Just street cafes and a few inside restaurants. All the food was fresh. I bet to people that live that lifestyle their whole lives that sitting in a car eating an overcooked fried chicken sandwich while taking phone calls sounds like some kind of alternate universe nightmare.

Lambert's: when you want to catch your bread in the middle of the circus. You don't leave hungry unless you want to.

Hello Marion's avatar

I haven't been to Lambert's since [checks calendar marks carved into cave wall] 1987? Heartbroken to see they've gone mainstream and taken the fried bologna with a bubblegum cigar on the side off the menu.

That's approximately when I visited the Sikeston location.

RefillingThorsBeer's avatar

I heard about the place where they throw rolls at you, but I have never been there.
