They didn't. They won't. Sadly.

We both know this.

Who said they’d go under? Probably that’s an impossible bet to make unless one of us is their accountant, which I’m certainly not.

If you're willing to bet take him up on it instead of throwing around fake bet offers about nebulous net negatives.

His is specific and verifiable. If you don't like it suggest a counter that's specific and verifiable.

Sure. You go up and convince their bean counters we need to see their next quarterly for a bet on a hooker board and I’m in.

Exactly. I am not sure why the leftists don't understand this. I said earlier the day would likely be a success because they would attract all the freaks and deranged trannys from all around the area. But after the event is over, they have to rely on the locals to support the place. And if the locals aren't happy with the deranged groomer freak show, the business will suffer in the long run

But hey, the tranny lovers will celebrate it as a victory while the business risks long term harm

What evidence do you have that they'll be harmed long-term other than your personal feels?

Dreamgurrl · 05-20-2023, 10:30 AM

If anything harms them long term, it’s the fact that they make extremely subpar “smash burgers” that they serve everyday. (And don’t get me started on the fries.)

Not a one off inclusive brunch event. Businesses typically know their audience, what works and what doesn’t. I’m sure they forecast and probably aren’t idiots.

And to J’s point… honestly I think telling them that it’s a highly homophobic anti trans anti drag queen debate on a hooker board would make them want to share the financials. Perhaps even publicly!

I’m willing to ask them. You know for science and all.

Well, I've actually been there and know folks that patronize the place regularly.

DG, the fries are better in Ziele... at least in my humble opinion. As well as the service.

The Korean Fried Chicken Sammy hits the spot

So you know all the locals who patronize the place enough to keep it in business

Ok, sure you do.

We have seen your blatant misinformation on other threads. This is just more of the same

HDGristle · 05-20-2023, 10:46 AM

Know folks doesn't imply all folks. Blatant par-for-the-course conflating on your part. Lack of reading comprehension and context. Quit lying.

And you haven't shown even anecdotal evidence besides feels.

Quit while you're behind. You want any bacon while you're carrying your sign tomorrow?

So you admit you don't know enough of people who patronize the place to make an impact on whether their business remains viable long term. Cool. Thanks for the apology

HDGristle · 05-20-2023, 11:00 AM

Idk, all those extra words you tossed in there are pretty bad fan fiction.

If you don't want any bacon I'll give it all to J

Jacuzzme · 05-20-2023, 11:28 AM

WTF is a smashburger?

Why would we need to be their accountant to see if they're still in business or not? Neither of us was the accountant for The Original Hot Dog Shop, but we both know that they're no longer in business.
