Ya, the amount of people outside bicycling, hiking, rafting I saw out there was awesome!

I got to experience Japan too, but I was even younger but 6’ tall. So my experience there was mostly around how I could see over everyone :)

Anecdotal story about Colorado.
I visited CO a couple of times a while ago for work. I was in my mid 30’s (2007) and fairly fit. I left Cincinnati Airport surrounded by overweight people all around me where I felt pretty good about myself. I arrived in Denver, and suddenly felt like I was on the less fit side of the spectrum.
It was VERY obvious the change. It was not something I noticed / thought about in Cincinnati, but it hit me like a ton of bricks when I landed in CO.
I’ve talked about that experience through the years. I have to watch what I eat, and work to be ‘as fit’ as I am, it definitely does not just come natural or anything remotely like. I drove around / hiked pretty much every moment I was not working and both trips were amazing. Such a beautiful state!

I’m sure if you used the kiosk often you could learn it. I struggled to just order a 1/4 pounder meal. It wasn’t showing me combos.
But i don’t have any desire to learn it or visit McDonald’s :)

Wife mentioned it today at work and it appears that McD’s is notorious for being awful. Again, I’m McD’s expert but the story on here about profits down last quarter was just odd timing for me ending up at one. So ijad my own opinion as to why there may be more issues!

Appreciate the comment! That said, I’m not looking to find ways to better my McDonald’s experience here :)
I just need to build that time since I was at McDonald’s back up. I wanted to vent after seeing the story about price likely causing their 1/4 results. I think there’s more to it.

It appears they close at midnight, and we got there just before 9pm
- Comment on McDonald's Experience by non McDonald's patron. 4 months ago:
I just looked to confirm. They close at midnight and it was just before 9pm.

I didn’t but everyone else thought it made sense. I’d have rather gone home and eaten a sandwich

Not that I was there to begin with, but they 100% will push my parents out of there as they do not want to deal with them. I would think their primary long term customers were boomers, and they’re gonna reject Kiosks.

Ya, same. I think I may have gotten a burger one time when I took my kid (now 14) in there for some ice cream 7-8 years ago. Then unfortunately twice this year. But I’m going to go back to normal of actively avoiding the place

- Comment on Artificial price increase so that you can post “discounts” on Prime Day 5 months ago:
one of the many reasons I dropped Prime in January when my annual subscription ran out. I now avoid amazon where possible, or for certain things I’ll group them up until I have enough items to get free shipping and order that way.
No prime day garbage No more “oh, let me order this thing I don’t really need that will get here in a few hours”
- Comment on Twisters 10 months ago:
I too, am irrationally annoyed at the idea of a Twister remake. My wife didn’t seem nearly as annoyed.
- Comment on Amazon pricing makes no sense. 11 months ago:
This year I’m trying to move away from Amazon, first letting our prime membership lapse in I believe a week. May replace it with Walmart+ or nothing.
But the reality is I was ok paying a fee for fast shipping, but this stupid crap with adding “free” perks that ultimately raise the price combined with the terrible review system, and just garbage products has me backing away. I don’t use/find enough value in all the extra perks above free shipping to justify the cost.

Wish I’d seen them live back then…
