On a trip in Nola and took the kids for a treat at the Cheesecake Factory. 3 sodas and an iced tea was $21. Won’t be back for that reason alone. We are being fleeced.

Really gave me a whole new perspective. Thanks for that.
I think about this a lot. Three years ago, I spent a lot of money redoing my kitchen. Felt like it was way too much for what I was getting but was told this was a 10-15 year thing. Flash forward 1 manufacturer’s year warranty.
Ice maker in my fridge stopped working two weeks after the warranty ran out. I’ve paid to have it replaced once, and then they came back to fix it under their warranty, but said they wouldn’t again because it was a design flaw in the manufacturing. It currently doesn’t work.
The “brushed aluminum” trim is basically a giant silver decal that is currently peeling off of my oven, microwave, and dishwasher.
Speaking of the oven, the igniter has burned out three times. The guy that replaced the first one showed me how to do it again because he was surprised that this one lasted that long. They go bad about every 3 months so you might as well learn how to change it. "These are pure shit, " he said. The manufacturer’s part is $78 and is not warranty if you put it in. A generic ignitor is $18 and has a one year warranty.
Stuff is not made to last at fucking all. I feel like we’re being fleeced.
Looking at you Teams Messenger. Oh, how I hate thee…
I’d buy that shirt.
I must be one too. I’m with ya.
Please don’t suck.
Possibly one more? Enshitification.
Thanks for all that. Great read.
I am a HUGE fan of the music. Still a prick.
Forgot to mention…floor seat tix for the upcoming show in Birmingha, AL are $175-300 each. Fuck em all.
Came in here to mention how much a of a dick Maynard was to a seamstress friend of mine. It was an hour or so before showtime and she had the audacity to replace the button on his vintage leather Cavaricci pants with one that wasn’t an actual Cavaricci button. He treated her like a foolish peasant that should have been more prepared to deal with an elite. Seems kinda light considering the other posts, but anytime I can call him out for being a dick, I’mma do it.
Edit: a letter.
I didn’t bother and was gonna give it a walk around. Downloaded but can’t access without an invite.
