Those smug cooks, making a few dollars above minimum wage.

I love QR Code menus, especially when you can order through them.

But I hate when restaurants force them on you. Just give me the fucking choice so that everyone can order in the way they prefer.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah but they can't data track you through a paper menu, and a company choosing to lose revenue?? impossible

[–] [email protected] 15 points 10 months ago (5 children)

most of them only link to a PDF containing the menu anyways, they can't track you there either

The boomers are right about this one

I prefer the menu on my phone. I can't be the only one

[–] [email protected] 42 points 10 months ago (1 children)

While I think your opinion is vile, detestable, loathsome, abominable, and evil, I don't understand why you're being down voted.
Thank you for sharing your abhorrent, outrageous, and revolting opinion as it does contribute something meaningful to the discussion.

Did anyone check what that qr code in the image points to?

Should have been a link to their own website to the page where this picture was uploaded.

That would be so meta.

  1. Scan QR code

  2. Hello would you like to let cookies into your life?

  3. Time to navigate the decline cookies menu

  4. Tap menu button/item

  5. Goto 2

I don't know, man, I always hate political cartoons that feel the need to label everything. Like, is that necessary?

[–] [email protected] 144 points 10 months ago (2 children)

It's not necessary. That is why this cartoon has them.

This artist makes cartoons that are parodies of over-labelled political cartoons. He satirizes by imitating his target's crappy form.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 10 months ago

In that case, well done.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 10 months ago (3 children)

also if youre reading this and if you're not familiar with his work - the statue of liberty crying is in practically every cartoon as well.

It’s satire of political cartoons/right wing views.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 months ago
[–] [email protected] 31 points 10 months ago

Ah yes, the old "insult everyone involved" gag.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Wow, the onion is on point these days. I don't know how they can produce satire in today's America.

Just been in a restaurant in France that thought a tablet would be a good idea for a menu. Fucking dimwits hadn't switched off the screen sleep though, and you had to tap it to wake it every thirty seconds

Plus it was an iPad, which only pensioners use, it was fucking awful

I like the way you managed to use the correct "whom" to sound posh then completely fucked it up with the "at" on the end :)

The Kelly cartoons are done by a progressive pretending to be a conservative. The Onion often gets hate letters from progressives who think it's genuinely conservative, and more glowing letters from conservatives who think the same.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago

Taking into account that this is the Onion, it's probably aimed at at everyone like the good ol' days.

God I hate the way this dude draws joints on people, elbows and shoulders are jutting out way too much and the people look like weird bony aliens wearing human skins that don’t fit right

[–] [email protected] 19 points 10 months ago

Those are crucial features of political cartoons

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I love how lady liberty is crying in all of these
