You have apparently never visited the south, the land where not having sweet tea at your restaurant is asking for it to fail

[–]LOLinternetLOL 14 points15 points ago

I waited tables in Texas for 3 years, and have lived in the south all of my life. Old people order unsweetened tea from me almost every time. All restaurants just carry both sweet and unsweet.

[–]planarshift 17 points18 points ago

Where in the South? I don't know of a single old person in South Carolina that would ever order anything but sweet tea, and it better be damn sweet too.

[–]TwoChe 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm going to guess Texas. But as a Texan I will concede we are not as nuts about sweet tea as the real south, AKA SEC country. Shit, now the Aggies are in the SEC I can't easily differentiate between true south and southwest.

[–]derivative123 18 points19 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That's bc Texas ain't the real South. I grew up in KY and NC -- where asking for "tea" means sweetened and iced. If you want it hot or unsweetened you better specify that shit.

I've lived in Texas, Alabama, and Georgia. I only drink my tea sweet, but old women seem to like their tea unsweetened, or at least they just like to sweeten it themselves.

Why this is wise:

  • He will not get his item stolen.
  • If he drops it on the floor, it will bounce back up doing more damage to the ground.
  • Even though it probably takes 95 D batteries, they will last for 7 years with no change.

He's obviously at a Golden Corral buffet line (yes I'm from the South, yes I'm from a white trash family). He's probably out for Sunday family dinner, but didn't want to miss whatever sports game was on at that date & time.

He normally listens to the game on the radio, but without an iPhone it would be pretty much impossible to pull this off otherwise. Props to him for bringing headphones and not subjecting everyone else to his crap.

ahhh, but you have not truly experienced the best of golden corral until you have eaten here on both christmas day and easter. because of my in-laws, i'm starting to associate major holidays with wet plates and sweatpants.

Get a divorce now. No spawn of such people is going to enhance your life. It's a really convenient way to screen dates, if she wants to eat at the Golden Corral, run away. Do not explain, do not reason, do not walk. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!

[–]jugglinglivebabies 16 points17 points ago

let me clarify. it's not my wife. she's actually kind of hurt by it. she cooks an amazing dinner for thanksgiving, and then her dad and brother want to go to an all-you-can-eat buffet for christmas. it's kind of funny at this point, but it seems like they suggest it at almost every holiday now. i'm not letting that be my kids' memories of family holiday dinners.

Meaning what modern electronic device offers live streaming broadcast of radio programs. It's been years since I've seen a small portable radio, and I was pointing out that he's not listening to just music so an Ipod or other MP3 player would not meet his needs.

I had the Zune HD, and it was quite nice. I eventually broke down and bought a Windows Phone (Lumia 900), and if you liked the Zune, you'll love the phone. It'll all feel very familiar. It uses the Zune client and Zune Pass for music as well. Totally worth it. And the Lumia is relatively cheap for a smartphone, they sell it for $100 with contract.

I am still attached to my ancient flip, but I'm just using it until it finally heads to the radio shack in the sky and then I'll probably break down and get a windows phone.

Do you really think that dude is going to buy a phone with a radio? He probably has Windows 3.1 and it suits him fine. Same with the huge radio he has with him. It works. I doubt he'd even go buy a pocket radio, much less a cell phone with one built in. He doesn't seem like the type of person who would waste money on bullshit like that.

[–]cccmikey 6 points7 points ago

Actually, if he is a die-hard AM listener, that radio probably has a much bigger graphite antenna than most modern pocket radios, so there may be some sense in it. (Stronger reception.)

That's an odd feature for a cell phone to have, even with the iPhone I was expecting to have find a radio station that offered internet streaming. Granted I went from one of the old indestructible Nokia's to an iPhone, so my cell knowledge is somewhat limited.

You think that huge boombox runs on air ? Because it runs on batteries, probably 4 big ass D batteries if not 6 or 8. These are more expensive than a 10$ radio that runs on crank and solar energy with a back up AAA in case. I don't know why i think like a kid tho, can you explain that ?

[–]schrute_buck 1 point2 points ago

There's a 3rd party attachment for FM receiver apparently, so I don't think it does. Apple is all about pushing forward with the latest and greatest and abandoning "Old" technology, so that sort of move seems right up their alley.

[–]ducttape36 1 point2 points ago

i guess so. I'd hate to be without one though, even if I don't use it much, if there is an emergency situation like a tornado and cell towers are overloaded or taken out, FM radio would be the first place i turn to for information.

Walk into any Wal-Mart and you will find portable radio players for under $15. Walk into any Best Buy and you can find portable CD players with built-in radio for under $30. Log in to Amazon and you can find portable mp3 players with built-in radio for under $50.

Oh god, please don't remind me of Golden Corral. That place is a ranch of hambeasts and the dregs of American culture. At least Taco Bells and McDonalds are efficient - you come in stoned or drunk, you get your food, and you dispose of your diarrhea in the comfort of your own home.

Golden Corral is where you go if you want to pay $12 and eat boiled food all day long while subjecting other customers to your long-term presence and skunk. You bring your entire sweaty family, you wear your most comfortable sweat pants and wifebeater that you don't think smells too bad (it does), and you yell at your disgusting wife to control the kids or else they don't get to go to the soft serve machine. And everyone just shoves the gross cafeteria food down their gullets for hours. If you're truly bottom-of-the-barrel, you come for lunch then stay for dinner, because why go home and cook a meal when you can just sit on your ass until your swollen gut rumbles again then eat the same shit for free? You can get more spaghetti and boiled beef, and the kids can keep on ensuring early onset diabetes at the ice cream machine.

Fast food is purgatory. It's like visiting a porn shop - it's dirty, but it's a transient moment of weakness. You can leave anonymously and quickly. Golden Corral is hell. It's sleeping on the floor of a whorehouse of crack addicts, because you've hit the bottom and there's no way out, so you might as well accept the fact you're staying there a while.

Fuck Golden Corral.

Oh man... this description was amazing. Never been to a Golden Corral, but I've been to an Old Country Buffet or two, and they sound about the same. I say we get wasted and hit up the Golden Corral next weekend, should be a blast.

I've been to both, and while OCB is OK, I've always thought Golden Corral was much nicer. We just went to one in FL and, while it was crowded, the food was still fresh and good and the place was clean.

You have some fucked up Golden Corrals in your area. Here they are AMAZING. Food is GREAT. It is always too crowded is my only complaint, but it's definitely no 'people of walmart' type crowd (maybe just has to do with geography)

Damn, I'm jealous. In my hometown it's People of Walmart Central (thanks for that perfect descriptor, by the way). Our classier cafeteria was Luby's in Texas - there's a civilized establishment. Maybe they robbed Golden Corral of all its literate clientele.

He's probably from the Golden Corral buffet line in Spokane, Washington. Maybe I've never seen him, maybe I have. Maybe he ate dinner dinner behind me last time I was there, maybe he didn't.

This is adorable. He probably had one of those pocket radios but it broke and he was damned if he was gonna miss his sports game. More power to him. My dad would probably do the same thing, except he has those huge headphones with a build in radio and listens to them EVERYWHERE.
