It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

She has another article about spending $460 on a dinner. Does shilling for chain restaurants pay that well?

A filet mignon is one of my 13-year-old daughter's favorite dinners, so she was thrilled to find one on the menu.

At $58, it was about the same price as my steak entrée. She ate nearly all of it, only taking a little home as leftovers.

The price of one of her kid's meals costs more than an average restaurant meal for my family che-laughgui-better

You could buy the filet from a grocery store, grill it at home, and feed the whole family for that same price PLUS there's a very good chance it'll taste better.

That shit doesn't even look good. $460 could literally get you a Michelin star tasting menu dinner for two.

I once went on a date to a place that had a Michelin star and it wasn't that expensive. I think I made it out under $70.

That's why I specified the tasting menu part. With those you're essentially getting a show for two plus hours and like a dozen different small plates of the best food you've ever had.
