"You're not sad. Now consume, peasants. Consume and never stop. You don't WANT to be sad, do you?"
No shit, I saw fucking Afterpay available for petrol at the pump the other week. I'm Australian, so I'm unsure if this 'buy now, pay later' shit is available for gas over in the States, but it was certainly a shock to see here.
The Afterpay, Affirm, Zip, Klarna signs are everywhere now. Even for pizza here in California.
Gas is all prepay here from what I have seen. You can't pump unless you tap/slide/insert your card or walk in and give the cashier cash.
Our fuel is pretty much the same price, comparing major city to major city, so maybe we will get fuel financing in 2-3 election cycles.
It's wild how different the refueling process is between our countries. Paying at the pump was trialed here about 10 years ago, but next to nobody used it. We just rock up to the servo, pump our fuel, then walk inside to pay. I can't see it changing anytime soon. Some rural, more crime-ridden areas require pre-pay, as well as a few locations in urban areas between 11pm and 5am, but even then, you still walk inside or up to a window on the actual building to pay.
oh you might not be sad now but you will be after you pay for all of that. Where I live with the Wingstop here that's gonna run you $50.
Curious where that is. Here in Chicago it's called the Boneless Meal Deal and it's $16.99.
Same here, but that's still too much for their shitty wings.
$18.99 in California.
Better than what I ate tonight.
Don't ask, mistakes were made...
Everyone thinks that mayonnaise crepes are gonna work out once in their life. It's ok, tomorrow is another day, just promise to be better.
Joke's on you. Last night we were out of mayonnaise, so I ate a bowl of crunched up barbecue chips and mustard.
That's not even a joke, that's literally what I ate for a snack last night.
Edit: Sad part is that we actually did have more mayonnaise in the cabinet. 🤦♂️
............wait. Were you going to have bbq chips and mayo? Or mayo & mustard soup?
Honestly, I just wanted the chips. But the last of the chips were basically crumbs..
Well, they weren't stale, and I was still hungry for a snack. But I didn't want any crumbs on the carpet.
Edit: I'm an absolute idiot. Your challenge is to figure out where I went silly, where I went stupid, and why you're still here...

If you happen to be in a situation with basic crumbs of a plain salted chip (like utz or something) and hard boiled eggs, then you should combine them.
Our DI made us mix food to save time eating in boot camp, and ngl salted chips and eggs in a bag were dope. They made us crush the chips and eggs, but you can make a coating of chips on the eggs. I actually made it with the last of my chips a couple weeks ago.
mayo & mustard soup
Are you a Mayostard or Mustardayonaise home?
I mean, I'm not gonna shame you on that, as long as the mustard was a light coating, and it wasn't like yellow BBQ chip pudding.
Edit for your edit: Honestly, the thought of dipping chips in mayonnaise grosses me out more than mustard. Are you Canadian?
I'm American, southern region actually. I probably don't speak much for these idiots down here though, I'm a unique idiot of my own.
As a former Floridian; I get it.
I hate to disappoint you, but stress was had, and liquids were poured.
The fridge wants me to see a therapist. I asked her back the same thing, she said she needs an Uber..
Sadly, I mixed the BBQ potato chips and way too much mustard in a bowl, and ate it like cereal.
Hell, tastes better than this chemical aftertaste from working on vehicles today..
I haven't eaten since 3 days ago........can I have some?
If you are for real, then send me the location of a local pizza joint and I'll put in the order and prepay whatever you want (within reason).
Why sit there feeling sad when you could be making real progress towards being sad, fat, and gross?
Sounds like adblock territory to me.
I mean, there's almost some truth here
"You're not sad. You just need nuggies"
Great, now I'm sad, broke and fat.
I know this isn't the point of the post, but that hot honey rub pisses me off. I love hot honey and was excited to try it but this flavor is gross, basically just sugary with minimal heat. It's also inexplicably a grainy rub and not a sauce despite hot honey classically being sauce-like in consistency. You could just toss your wings in granulated sugar and you wouldn't be far off from this. Major disappointment.
Wing stop is just ass all around. Their best sauces are still nasty. I've given them more than a couple chances. TBH, you're better off just getting spicy nugs from Wendy's or something.
I'm guessing.... boneless wings aren't boneless wings,are they? 🤢
Boneless wings are basically glorified chicken nuggies.
Kinda. They come from boneless chickens and are made using the weird floppy appendages that they chop off the main bit. Very tasty
20 wings but one fry? Counting calories I see.
And now a word from our sponsor: CONSUME
Zesty stage capitalism
I am vegan. This is what makes me sad.
Cauliflower wings are dope af though
I mean there is people who legit are sad because they don't have food to eat so yeah maybe they need this
They won’t see your sad face later when your favorite pants don’t fit. 😔
The consumptive stage
the tasty one
The stage where I eat wings. Mmmm.
