It's definitely an American thing. Where I live the cinema isn't some event that only happens with groups of people. Here people just use them to see movies even if it's by themselves. Or at least it used to be that way... 15 years ago before everyone understood how to torrent and stream stuff.

>> No.8321427

I've done it too. Go in the day and it's less weird. I have a lot less problem doing that then eating in a sit down restaurant with a waiter by myself. I can do it in the middle of the day if it's dead but if it's busy you can just feel the hatred of the waiter who knows he's not getting much of a tip from just 1 person, and all the people waiting for the single asshole taking up a table.

>> No.8321479

I've never seen a table for one person. They can give you those two person tables but most places only have a few and they have a lot of couples waiting for them. Most people who go by themselves sit at the bar, if eating food at the bar doesn't make you feel like even more of a loser, especially if you don't drink and the bartender hates you for taking up space.

I'm European, establishments where you can lunch have tables of 1 because people go there during their lunch break. But I ate dinner alone at a restaurant once and everyone was fucking staring at me. Things like this make it very easy to understand why Incel's snap at one point.

I don't know if it's just burgers who don't see this stuff. But where I am it's not unusual to see people eat at restaurants by themselves. It's usually people who are between work shifts, lone business men having a meal and people who travel between different destinations as part of their job. Maybe not at mega high class restaurants, but certainly at your normal street restaurant or bed & breakfast.

People who are by themselves are supposed to stay home or eat in their car, because they're losers and other people don't want to see or be around them. We're trained at a very early age "don't do stuff unless you're with friends".

If you do anything by yourself in America it's seen as a red flag by others, including just eating lunch by yourself. For the most part, you're not supposed be introverted and/or non-social in US culture. If you don't want to constantly be with other people then there's something wrong with you, especially if you don't smile often.

100% accurate. Doing anything alone is seen as being a loser and loner. I remember Shibuya Kaho mentioning going to the movies by herself because she wanted to watch an anime movie and automatically Silvervale was like "Ah, I'm so sorry" because she assumed Kaho didn't want to go alone. We've been programmed to do everything as a couple or group of friends by corporations that want more money.

Yuropoors ran this into the fucking ground over the last few years. I still don't get why they think it's weird. I guess in more insular societies, they see group actions as strange no matter what.

My ex and I had this sushi place we liked that was out in the suburbs. Since we were regulars, the staff knew us well. I obviously had no intention of not going there once we broke up but man, talk about a shift in attitude once I started going alone, the staff couldn’t wait for me to leave.

if you lose your job you're royally fucked though, and people out of work need help the most obviously cuz they have no fuckin job. there's also tons of bullshit with american health insurance like the network thing where clinics/hospitals/psychiatrists/you name it won't accept your insurance if it's 'out of network' so your health insurance only applies to pretty specific institutions; like for example your health insurance has a very good chance to not work if you move just one adjacent state over.

Wokeness is an issue because women gained rights, power and money, turning American culture into an oppressively hyperconformist nightmare by design.

Men are the solitary Spartans who value liberty and some degree of isolation from the unwashed masses. The moment the common man's individual authority over himself was stripped away, that's when everything went wrong in American culture.

Now we have people hating each other and fighting in the streets because hyperfamiliarity breeds hypercontempt. This is your country on extroverts.
