Topic is: Are there any fast food chains not getting worse?
I'd say Chik-fil-A.
Went to one recently and it was pretty much exactly like I remembered from the last time a decade ago. Clean, staff was proactive.
I think it's because being closed Sunday breaks the habit so fewer trash people go there on impulse, also having to ask for a refill. Being Christian they keep away the worst liberal freaks.
Likely some of those liberal freaks secretly doordash them and bury the evidence.
I knew a lefty girl in college circa fifteen years ago who ordered Chick-fil-A all the time and always talked about how ashamed she was of it. I found the whole thing amusing.
Remember that last time the lefties try to boycott cfa couple years ago, none of them actually did it. They have no strong will and are all giddy for breaking self imposed restrictions and then talking about it as "guilty pleasure" on reddit
Chick-fil-A also hires local kids and not large amounts of LatinX and Indians.
In my area it’s still true.
I'd assume that being closed one day a week also lets them keep the facilities in better condition. 24/7 places skimp on maintenance to avoid impacting availability.
Seed oil fried, hormone laden chicken. But with Jesus branding!
Must consoom!
Since 1971 every single metric that matters has been getting worse.
I decided to look up what happened in 1971 as I will admit I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to things from the 70s to early 80s, Baby Boomers first entered the workforce... Why is it always them and Jews?
Ultimate jew scam
Right, I didn't even consider that was when we ended the gold standard. That completely slipped my mind, yeah that's far worse as we're beholden to Jews and their banks. It's not the baby boomers fault in that case, I was in the wrong for shitting on them there.
Fair enough, I was reading about it after the comment, I'm fairly ignorant about it I'll admit, so I shouldn't have commented on it. It does seem the way you said.
I don't know man, when I was reading about it and it looked exactly as you posited along with the US being forced to take on the burden of the European "powers" and being unable to back it up with gold anymore, so we abolished it to further strengthen the US dollar without having to rely on having gold to back our currency anymore.
Steam is as good as it’s ever been.
Taco Bueno is as good as it was 10 years ago.
Texas Roadhouse too.
Other than that, hard to make argument for anything else.
Can't install custom skins on steam AND the store is filled with slop. I was there when the Greenlight initiative was about filtering the best games that are worth putting up on the storefront whilst giving people the ability to publish there.
Yup, Greenlight was a good thing -- put the power of curation in the hands of consumers.
Media hated it because it put the power of curation in the hands of consumers.
Yeah, it’s really good for the price. Just crowded.
Nutrition.
It's never been easier to access information for your own healthcare.
Body optimisation, literally impossible through all of human history to do anything similar.
The speed of counter political and establishment thought is faster than it's ever been.
It's weird to say but Pepsi was actually a decent restaurant operator. It was just a way for them to expand their products with direct relationships but it also fit naturally with the rest of the company in terms of product distribution, marketing, and fast food services.
So they never overran the businesses. They were just there as a conduit. To be acceptable and even slightly good without having to be ground out for maximum profits. There were so many ancillary benefits you didn't really have to try all that hard.
The spin off of the core company into YUM brands and a separate Ameriserve deal really changed all that and forced the individual franchises to turn out a much higher margin into profits while getting squeezed by new third party distributors. It killed the small mom and pop local high quality franchise and turned them all into corporate dog food factories.
While hilarious, I looked it up and GoYum is the name of the store-brand shit they have at 7/11, and isn't affiliated with the slop conglomerate Yum. Which is odd, these companies are usually insanely litigious with their branding.
Jesus is always good
Phone services are getting faster and cheaper due to Fiber cable standardization
Same with internet
Yeah ... all the better to spy on and control you.
Of course tech is always getting better. That's not the context of the question.
Wifi 3D mapping is the reason
Gives Zog Enforcers the edge they need to murder you with drones
My cell phone is better. AI is quite useful. The government makes everything worse though.
