    For all of my fellow Chicagoans who, like me, are seeing this with no warning or preparation, I can share support resources, and I’m here if you just need to talk about it.

    Edit: for those in need of assistance.

      It’s fine, that’s just blood from their nose because of the head rush from slurping the entire garden up with that courageous bite. Do not correct me, this belief is going to get me through the rest of the day

      One Christmas I asked for the neon green relish for Christmas. My cool bil (who ran a hot dog stand) sent me a big assjar. Hell yeah.

        I doubt it. Vienna beef is just The Dog in a Chicago Dog for the most part.

      Hey, I’m here for you, too. We’re all here for you.

      Well, I’m here for you as long as you don’t put a drop of fucking ketchup on that dog.

    The weirdest thing here is them calling the Costco cashier a “line cook”

          Doctor: Uh So, Timmy, I got your bloodwork in, and I have a couple of questions.

          Timmy: Okay.

          Doctor: Just about how many hot dogs do you eat a day?

          Timmy: How many hot dogs?

          Doctor: Yeah.

          Timmy: Geez. I don’t know. I mean, you know, some days I could eat a couple and some days I don’t eat any.

          Doctor: Okay. Let’s just say for an average. Take your whole week and try to figure out what your daily amount would be.

          Timmy: I have no idea.

          Doctor: Just try.

          Timmy: Okay. A whole week average per day would be something like, I don’t know, seven.

          Doctor: Seven hot dogs?

          Timmy: Seven, yeah.

          Doctor: A day?

          Timmy: ls that high?

          Doctor: It’s a little high.

          Timmy: ls that bad?

          Doctor: Well It’s not good.

          Timmy: I mean, l’m just ball-parking here, you know?

          Doctor: Sure, sure. Timmy, I wanna try something if you don’t mind. Walk me through one of your days.

          Timmy: Walk you through my day?

          Doctor: Yeah, just take me through a day in a life of Timmy.

          Timmy: Okay. Well I wake up, and I take a shower. And, you know, get ready for work. I go downstairs and I have a bagel and something for breakfast.

          Doctor: And something?

          Timmy: A hot dog.

          Doctor: Hot dog. Okay.

          Timmy: I mean, I do usually eat a hot dog there.

          Doctor: Okay.

          Timmy: Then I take the train to work.

          Doctor: Slow down. Slow down. Does anything happen on the way to work?

          Timmy: Oh. Ha ha. I almost forgot. On the way to the subway there is a hotdog stand, so I usually have one or two, yeah.

          Doctor: Two hot dogs.

          Timmy: Yeah. I usually have two hotdogs before work.

          Doctor: So that’s three hot dogs before work.

          Timmy: Right, yeah. If you’re gonna count the one at home. I mean, this is all just breakfast, you know?

          Doctor: No, I understand. I get it.

          Timmy: Then I just go through my whole day at work.

          Doctor: Okay.Hold up. Walk me through your workday. What happens at lunch?

          Timmy: Oh, lunch, well I mean, some days I’ll just blow through lunch because of how busy I am and all.

          Doctor: Really?

          Timmy: Well l’m pretty sure I did that once.

          Doctor: Okay. Well, on the days that you’re not ‘‘blowing through lunch’’ what do you have?

          Timmy: Well, on those days sometimes it could just be a salad.

          Doctor: Could it?

          Timmy: Yeah. But it’s usually–

          Doctor: It’s usually hot dogs?

          Timmy: Yeah, it’s usually hot dogs.

          Doctor: How many hot dogs?

          Timmy: I don’t know. Anywhere between one and four.

          Doctor: Four hot dogs.

          Timmy: Yeah, that’s probably safe.

          Doctor: Well, I hope there’s no more hot dogs in the day 'cause we’re up to seven now.

          Timmy: Yeah, on second thought, that number might be a little low.

      I think this is how doctors expect me to answer auestions about alcohol and smoking. Ive smoked kne cigarette ever, and a single beer gets me drunk for the night, about once a week. Doctors hear that and think im having 3 hot dogs before i get to work

      What difference would it make to the shitpost if it was an AI edited card in the picture, gimp edited, or someone printed out the card themselves? Or even they used AI to make the card and then printed it out and took the picture.

      Why would one be slop and not the other?

      This is a joke. That card is something bartenders give people who are drunk in some bars. Someone edited one to say Costco and photoshopped it onto a picture from a food court

        As someone who has worked in bars, that’s one sure fire way to piss off someone in a drunk state. You need to bring it with conviction and without making things confrontational.

        Hiding behind a formality is probably the worst idea.

          Well yeah, I didn’t say it’s a good idea. And as of covid days, practically every interaction type you can think up will piss someone off to an irrational, performative and base instinct level that makes some wonder if humanity had a good run but it’s all downhill from here.

        Surprised Lidl didn’t put up a picture of me and a notice “do not allow to buy veg” when they were selling packs of veg for a few pennies before Christmas last year. Several other shops did the same but I bought most from Lidl.

        Pickled it in bulk (think branston pickle kinda thing) and still got several 0.5-1L jars of it left. Also ate a lot fresh, some cooked into stews and frozen. 10s of kg in total.

        I live by the sea. Almost tempting to try out seawater pickling if they do it again. That is cheaper than vinegar. Use some 25L brewing buckets?
