This. It's not like covid came out 15 years ago.

I miss the little caesars at my local Kmart

>>14888272

i've only eaten at these like 5-10 times in my life. in the past 10 years i've come to not like being around people, so i've avoided them, but i hope one day i'll be confident enough with my appearance to have mcdonalds in a nice, comfy air conditioned food court mall once again.

>>14888283
All of the little Caesars by me have abandoned the little Caesars name and reopened as generic pizza places that clearly sell the same food as little Caesars. This happening to anyone else?

The only way malls in urban areas are coming back is if they go members-only.

>>14888296
Little ceasers isnt real, i dont know why people perpetuate this meme.

Whenever the dems and msm stop pretending this Chinese meme virus with a 99.5% survival rate is the end of times.

Only a real 'ittle 'sars 'ould 'ave the 'ot n 'eady 'za.

>>14888227
No, neither are buffets.

Good riddance to mall food courts. You like eating sub-par food at a filthy table surrounded by screaming children, neglectful single mothers, bratty teenagers, and drug dealing Hispanics/basketball-americans?

>>14888636
Buffets are still around you just have to wear plastic glubbs

>>14888295
What do you even mean with your appearance? Maybe this is not what you're actually looking for. Or rather, you'd want to change your mindset together.

>>14888227
In comfy suburbia with multiple of these nearby.

Must suck living in the third world. Food courts are alive and open in functional first world countries that dont allow the virus to rape their citizens.

what happened to malls in america?
they're constantly building new ones in my country.

>>14889869
What country is that, Croatia?

>>14889869
Amazon happened

>>14888227
Half of mine is open. Pretty cool cause only the best ones stayed

>>14888272
based 'tle 'sars Chad! I highly encourage everyone to seek out their local 'sars establishment and procure for themselves a $5 'ot n 'eady, with a side of 'razy 'read. I think everyone will agree that they're 'zas are second to none!

>>14889869
We still have strip malls
When I went to the UAE they freaking loved malls, it was truly bizarre. I like 80% blame it on them not having addresses so it's a pain to deliver things

>>14888227
>no more GOOD point-point ""chinese"" combo joint where it's like $10 for 3 items and BIG side of rice
>no mcdonald's to go with it

>>14888647
Move to Utah then faggot

>>14890587
Whos "they"

>>14889869
i went to manila last year and their huge-ass malls are packed EVERY goddamn day. they not only have a food floor (not hall, because it's an entire floor walled by restaurant counters), but there are even full sit-down restaurants scattered around. all the malls in my area practically kicked out restaurants into places out in the parking lot

>>14890614
Jesus Christ

>>14888227
Most of them suck, just the same shit you'd find in any other mall in your city or area. I do like the non-franchise Chinese or Asian places though. They cook actual food and serve you generous portions instead of the frozen shit you only get a few crumbs of at panda express or whatever.

>>14889869

Yeah but also Wal mart. Malls don't survive unless they have thriving anchor stores that bring in foot traffic and Wal mart killed off all those stores like Sears and Eatons and Pendleton's Fur Coats and Hats and all those other weird fuckin stores that were founded in the 1800s and served as the original anchors when the first malls were built in the 70s.

There's a reason why wal mart doesn't take over all the empty stores in all the half empty malls.

The people living in the United Arab Emirates.
Arabs, Indians, Coptics, Lebanese, Russians, Filipinos, ect. Like 3/4 of the country is immigrants.

>>14888614
I think they're exaggerating it to make Trump look bad which is why so many ads for Joe Biden have been "He knows how to fight the virus!" but I also know plenty of /pol/esmokers who were freaking out early in the year before any talks of shutdowns, already believing it was the apocalypse. Reminds of V for Vendetta a bit.

Sad to think about how many random businesses were probably destroyed because of political fighting.

>>14890614
I was really hungry at the mall one day where I used to go to a hobby store so I went to the Chinese place there and got the three item plate. The Chinese woman there slathered my plate in broccoli when I asked for beef and broccoli and I got very few pieces of meat. I had to ask for some more meat. What a disappointment.

>>14888267
Food courts still exist today anon...

>>14890812
>but I also know plenty of /pol/esmokers who were freaking out early in the year before any talks of shutdowns
/pol/ is just useful idiocy. They thought it was the apocalypse until March, when their emperor bee said it was dumb and they all fell in line like the insects they are.

>Eatons
Based fellow Canuck

>>14890932
lol I was intentionally omitting all the Canadian stores like obviously The Bay and Zellers or Steinberg's but I guess one slipped by me.

>>14890974
>Zellers
Those were the days

Theyve been dead for years. The mall near me had a fantastic one with a fucking indoor ferris wheel where I got my first kiss but that shit was dying way back in like 2005.

I just miss the feeling of christmas shopping around white people and being excited for video games. Our mall used to have this arcade that for 10 dollars would unlock every game unlimited for 4 hours on tuesday nights. Our recreation center used to have dance nights on the weekend with a DJ and pizza. Chain restaurants used to be friendly places to take the whole family. Traveling was exciting. Getting into trouble with your friends and getting away with it because everyone didn't have a phone or a camera in their pocket. I fucking miss not living in a clown world bros.

lol you cant sit alone on a beach or do some werid shit for yourself without some faggot recording you on snapchat. 2012 really changed everything desu

>>14888283
Working at one of these was my dad’s first job.

>>14890614
>tfw no more hawaiian asian fusion joint right next to a sushi place

why live it was like $10 for a shit ton of food

I have a really nice mall near me about 35 mins out, way better than my local mall.
The pandemic has turned it into a shell of its former self. The sears is long closed, Lord and Taylor is closing, Nordstrom is gone. Tons of empty space now, but the food court is still decent.

>>14888227
I work at a tropical smoothie right now. There is a LOT of sugar in those things. Most of the smoothies contain some form of concentrate and all of the smoothies, except for the detox smoothie, contains at least 2 ounces of cane sugar. It's criminal!

>>14889869
Amazon wal-mart, etc are the near end of it all my friend. Consumerism at it's max before you're barraged by nothing but middle men advertising, and then direct company to consumer. End stage capitalism.

JUST 15 DAYS TO FLATTEN THE CURVE

JUST 15 DAYS TO FLATTEN THE CURVE

Let me guess, these places were negro-magnets, yes?

>>14888227
Last time I was there on Tenet premier.

>>14891389
How can you flatten the curve in 15 days? It takes 14 days for action taken to even start to have observable effect. You are so fucking stupid you don't understand the first thing about the most important event in your lifetime, assuming you weren't around when AIDS was new.

I am convinced by my (most assuredly defective) memory, that the K-Mart (that I think still exists) in my home town, still has a Little Caesars.

I will make pilgrimage to my homeland this upcoming weekend to see if my memory severs me correct and will post sauce if it's there.
