A lot may suck about the world right now but future generations - if there are any - are going to look back on this as the golden age of chain restaurant Twitter.

Counter Counterpoint - brands engaging with customers and talking smack about their competition is more entertaining than straight-forward advertising.

Customer engagement is all fine and good. Like that linked Outback tweet where they offered him a free date is good by me. In fact, basically all organic engagement where you can humanize your brand a bit is pretty good. I remember Nintendo America commenting on some Luigi meme and I thought that was pretty good.
But stuff like Wendy's dunking on everybody or the trash that Seamless tweets or fucking Sunny D pretending to be depressed feels like a race to the bottom. It's just a try hard ploy for attention. Which, obviously, advertising is all a ploy for attention. But I think a lot of that content doesn't stand up to the "would this be funny if someone besides a brand tweeted it" test. So for me it's just irritating.
Anyway, it's possibly the dumbest thing on Earth to be mad about so sorry I was rude earlier.

Payless has announced they’re closing all the stores and I am gutted. There is basically no retail chains that carry a size 11 women’s shoe anymore, they were my last hope.

Man. Now I'm gonna have to spend more than $20 on a pair of dress shoes.

My gf wears size 12, and more often than not bought from Payless.
So we have been lazy and haven't gone grocery shopping in awhile.
I went yesterday, spent less than I expected and have coffee again.
No more doordashing and real food again. Did I mention coffee? I ran out about 2 weeks ago. The first week I bought coffee, it got too expensive so I went without... I'm drinking coffee at home, right now. I'm so happy. Just thought I'd share.

I'm happy you have coffee... Does that mean you are caffeinated enough to tell us about that microwave now? <3

I still haven't used it. thejeremy told me it was bought under my Amazon so I have to set it up. So, it's just sitting there.
spent one week in Seattle and I'm ready to declare KEXP the best station in the country. back to Houston's solid 6 stations of top 40's.
Their YouTube programming is almost always good stuff.
yeah, and it's a great advertisement. i pretty much landed, got in the car, and knew where to set the radio. so much better than going to a new place and having to figure it out on the fly.
So I was out driving and my phone decided right then it needed to update. So I was like shit, I guess I have to listen to the radio. I started scrolling through some random radio stations and I came across one that had a pastor giving a speech. So I was like "okay let's see what this guy has to say". It wasn't anything bad, he was mostly talking about helping the poor and stuff like that. Then it started to get staticky and this classical station started interfering. But I just kept it on. I started to have this really psychedelic feeling hearing the static and back and forth between the pastor and classical music. It felt like I was in a movie. It was great.
I used to spend a ton of time traveling because my now-wife and I lived in different states for six or seven years. I'd always seek out those 'focus on the family' stations because their programming usually held my attention and kept me from getting sleepy. All of their little radio plays and stuff came from such a different place than the programming I normally took in. It was kind of mesmerizing.

I found out that John Tesh is actually really soothing from long drives in the days before sat radio
Anyone familiar with Delilah? she'd do long distance dedications, give uplifting messages to stay at home mom types and play adult contemporary type music. It was awful and the country club where I worked in college played it at the pool every. damn. day.
In high school though, a friend of mine came back from a cross country road trip and was like "did you now there are delilahs all over the country??" I thought it was hilarious she didn't realize it was a syndicated broadcast.

I had a weird experience driving to Athens for Deafheaven a few months ago. I use an adaptor that plugs into cigarette lighter to play music on my phone. I was listening to music really loud and when I got close to Athens I started hear sone gospel music and preaching faintly in the background. It was cutting in It and out and even though I knew what it was it caused me to have goosebumps.
