Seriously, it seems like everybody has this idea that just because you don't choose to consume until you've stuffed yourself then you're missing out. Not ordering something new and different is missing out. Buffets are for pussies. My family makes good fertilizer though.

Buffets may be classless troughs, but... well, they're classless troughs. You go to them because you're in the mood to shove your face in a trough of barely passable quantity over quality or because you weigh 400lbs and feel the need to maintain.

Ordering smaller portions of that same barely passable quantity over quality trough food and feeling superior about it makes you a fucking moron. Because you're still eating trough food. You've just convinced yourself you're all classy and shit wearing a monocle and sticking out your pinky while doing it.

Buffets are the quintessential new and different. Instead of one item, you can try countless different things. Not everyone who opts for the buffet is a fat fuck who gorges to capacity, judgmental faggot.

Food sitting under heat lamps is disgusting. I always pass on the buffet too.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

The key is that if you order off the menu then the food is made fresh, whereas if it's a buffet then who knows how long its been sitting under that heat lamp?

Indian buffets are great because you can try a little bit of everything that day and see what you like and then go back and get more of what you like.

If you order one thing off the menu, that's what you get and you are stuck with it.

If you are an edgy teenage faggot that doesn't want to try new things, or thinks he's tried everything before, then this sort of thing will make you feel superior, but in actuality you are just being a gigantic teen age faggot.

Seriously, it seems like just because someone knows what aloo matar is they think they are better than the rest of us who like to sample everything on the buffet.

Also.. if you are eating at the same buffet where you have previously tried everything instead of eating at a different indian buffet.. you are a gigantic teenage family plebe. Try a new restaurant faggot.

Yea I love going to buffets to grab one-of-everything. I get a plate full of a buncha different stuff and I never finish it because I ain't fat. My BF and his friends eat a bunch and act like I'm wasteful. Yea well, kids in africa wouldn't starve less if I ate more at a buffet.

I hate the feeling of being stuffed, so the value of all-you-can-eat buffets are really lost on me.

However, it is nice to try small portions of many things from a buffet.

While not acceptable, it's not smart to assume that it can't be done without persecution. For example, if you provoke someone - get in their face, call them names, shout at them, goad them into striking, etc - and they pop you in the nose, there's actually a good chance that they won't be persecuted if that's ALL they did. The obvious exception is something like domestic abuse - but, say, two random guys in a bar? Much more unlikely to see anything come of it.

On the other hand, if they sucker punched you, sat on you, and beat the tar out of you.. they'd likely be persecuted.

Then again, a lot of instances like this where two people get in each other's faces over an argument and one just punches the other never get reported to the authorities anyways.

Whether or not a person finds it acceptable ethically depends on their outlook, and whether or not they feel as though they're having to defend themselves. If someone is aggressive enough, even verbally, it can set a lot of people on edge thinking that it might become physical, and they react pre-emptively.

Then again like 9 out of 10 people grew up in whitewashed suburbia so they've never seen any real verbal or physical confrontation other than their parents bitching at each other about bills or something.

I've never seen a buffet that used a heat lamp, and I'm guessing that you two don't know what a heat lamp is. They steam the trays from beneath.
