Lol. I love the idea of these boomer restaurants blaming millennials for losing business. This is JUST like what we talked about with malls going out of business. This is a natural course correction for the economy.mad bum wrote: ↑Sat Sep 01, 2018 12:51 amPlaces like that are absolute trash and are mocked as a sort of "normie dining". They have been serving microwaved frozen food to people for outrageous prices and people are starting to gravitate towards "fast casual food" which is like places like chipotle.
Not the best video because people will blame Millennials for everything, but it should give you an idea.
-There was a time in US history when the internet didn't exist but Boomers had a lot of spare money to blow. So suddenly malls and shopping centers and sit-down restaurants were everywhere and did big business.
-Now we're into the next generation. The next generation is fucking poor. We don't have a lot of money and what we do have goes towards things that are essential in the current environment, like housing, technology and BASIC food (groceries.) We do buying and selling in places that offer less expense and more convenience. That means fast food/delivery/groceries for food and online purchasing for physical/digital goods.
-It therefore naturally follows that the money we spend on cheaper, more convenient items gets funneled into the cheaper, more convenient businesses and away from shitholes like Crapplebee's and Red Robbin' who charge $20-30 for some shit I can make at home.
Boomers, sometimes I swear they don't understand anything about the economy and just blame younger generations for absolutely everything. They claim the younger generation is retarded and they're right of course, but they don't realize how retarded they themselves are and that they were probably a lot stupider than a lot of stupid millennials when they were our age... Y'know, considering that someone had to BUY all the crap to support the creation of malls, shopping centers and sit-down restaurants in the first place.
I mean, current generation buying too much would be "I spent too much on amazon" or "I went nuts on a steam sale." But their generation did the same thing at the fucking malls and then they'd go out to eat and spend $50 to sit down and eat noodles with pasta sauce.
