>Haven't eaten out since covid started
>Used to going to eat alone, don't find it weird
>Go to a cici's pizza
>everyone's there with friends
>Not a single soul alone but I
>Why doesn't being alone feel natural like before covid
>Buffets are different under covid: you have to state what you want and have it handed to you
>never had to spell out the kind of fatass plates I build at cici's
>fill up in 10 minutes because I haven't gorged myself in forever and then hang around the arcade even though they took out all the good games and then leave
I get it now.

I love eating alone. I play hearthstone on my phone and wait for people to leave their food so I can sample it and see if I like it before ordering. I get blackout drunk and call the restaurant I’m at and tell them Michael Jordan or someone like that is coming in 10 minutes. Makes for delightful dinner entertainment seeing the staff scrambling around wondering if a celebrity is really coming to their olive garden by the mall.

I once watched a middle aged guy watch a movie on his phone while eating dinner. When the waiter came to take the plate he very reluctantly moved his arms and when she asked if he wanted dessert he paused, removed one airpod, shook his head and continued watching while she emtied the rest of the table.

I love dining alone. I go in, I am a dark and mysterious outlaw, who knows where I'm going or where I've been, I'm a man on a mission, a solo mission. My eyes are hidden behind dark shades. My hat is not removed. I'm only here for a meal, then off to the road again.

No I think she was just nice, she hugged me sometimes but busily ran away immediately, even though I was literally like 3% of their business in a week

disgusting

But yeah, eating alone is cool if it's fast food.

[Anonymous No.15856672]

Dining alone is best. You can't truly enjoy food with other people

They added a classic mode to try to get people to come back but the player numbers keep dropping so i imagine it'll be dead in a year or 2

One time I went to a pho place on Christmas alone, it was pretty comfy actually, I was the only one eating there outside of the occasional person grabbing take out. Everything was so laid back.

The thing is, you've actually succeeded in what all humans are meant to do in life. Imagine being 26 and still being a virgin with no friends, who's going to even want to go out with you at that point? At that point why even live?
