Don’t get surprised when ufo’s try to land in your country in another 50 years. Entire USA would look like a parking lot from space and aliens would think your country is a motel.
You look like a parking lot from space. -peeps
But… the idea is to avoid human interaction! 🫠
Socializing is for socialists!
Next you’ll tell me that communing is for communists.
In fairness, have you tried being outside lately. So hot. No idea why, but there’s no way I want to be outside right now. I’m going to prefer sitting inside my 2 ton box and blast the A/C using my gas powered engine until it cools off a bit.
No idea why? gas is kind of a big part of why
It’s gotta be artful sarcasm
Oh yeah that went way over my head
Yeah you have to be better at knowing when people are serious or not.
To rub it in there’s all that free parking and just one parked car. I wonder where the hell are employees park their cars to leave all that space for customers.
That might be the employee’s car. I once worked at Dunkin’ Donuts and I was the only person staffing the place and had to do drive thru when it was like this. Also had to help walk-in customers. It was hell.
The employees might not have money for a car since they get paid a shit wage… which means having to walk through the car infrastructure.
To be fair, drive-in also exists in Europe and really took a flight during Covid.
Have one to look at on google maps. Not too different other than the parking spaces being way smaller. Do note the cycle path though, recognizable by the red asphalt. Cycling to this place is super doable, and they have a sit-down dining area if you do.
Note too how this is in an industrial park, if you go north-west a bit you’ll find a residential area which is MUCH less made for cars than the industrial park.
Must be nice to have the money to wait in line, with your A/C on, to get an overpriced coffee that tastes like crap and isn’t worth the price they pay.

there are Starbucks in Paris too that look exactly like the café/bistro in the bottom photo
(but they still serve overpriced coffee)
If you have to drive somewhere I’ve learned to use the app to order pickup ahead of time. Saves a huge amount of time and wasted gas, and the same pattern works regardless of your transportation method.
Some places are drive-thru only after a certain hour or worse don’t even have a dine-in option at all. I remember walking to a fast food joint next to my old apartment one night since it was the only place open and they wouldn’t let me order because I wasn’t in a car.
