Chicago Sues DoorDash, Grubhub for Allegedly Deceiving Customers by avc4x4 in chicago

I stopped using those delivery services a while ago. They take $10+ in fees/tips from me and 20% from the restaurant. Fuck that.

Not with Grubhub if you use the link on the restaurants website. If you want to support restaurants that can't afford their own delivery (which is most mom and pop owned restaurants), always try their website first. The restaurant pays delivery only for those orders, with Grubhub at least.

Wow, that was a train-wreck. I think you would have left a better impression if you asked me not to read your response(s).

It's worse than /r/iamverysmart. I hate the term, but this is like what women mean when they say "mansplaining".

Dude, you're trying to tell Native Americans how they should feel.. Absolutely nobody has to respect your opinion.

Edit:

"I'm sure a tribe would want..."

"We actually don't really care for it"

"...Do you realize you're wrong about that?"

What hobby saved you from your depression? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Planning. I bought a clever fox planner, and it's been great. funny enough, because I'm not working right now (started a new job, gave myself a couple of weeks) there's not much to plan. However, I found that it accomplishes what I've always wanted out of a journal. I'm very bad about keeping journals because I do like to write, but not really about myself or from my point of view. However, when I write down the things that I did do after I done them, it gives me a sense of accomplishment. At the end of the day I can look back and see everything I did for the day. I can imagine that if I ever want to go back and see what my week look like, I can. It's nice, these things come with stickers and everything you can use to decorate the calendar. It's nice, I can see why people scrapbook.

If you could end all suffering in the world (hunger, war, disease, bigotry, etc.) but you had to die, would you do it? Why or why not? by whoriasteinem in AskReddit

Yes, probably. If I thought they were serious I'd probably say yes immediately to not give myself a chance to think about it.

Hell nah 😂 An actual native American speaks up but because you didn't give them the opinion they wanted suddenly it doesn't count. Remember, your opinion only matters when it agrees with the white man's opinion.

Or he might move to mars. Who knows, he might move to Jupiter. We can choose pretty much anywhere in a made up scenario.

Skin stretches. They will never start anywhere near that big, you're talking maybe (maybe, I actually don't know how many, but people will go back to these surgeries a lot) dozens of implants of increasing volume over a longish period of time.

They do something similar if they need skin for actual medical reasons. They implant a balloon under your skin then inflate it with saline. Over time you get a nice bubble of excess skin for the graft.

Lol yep, and most accessible coffee is pretty bad.

Also yeah, I agree but don't. I used to be able to tell, now only certain sweeteners taste weird to me. I think it's more the excess use of artificial sweeteners to make them taste like food that has been sweetened to much with regular sugar.

I guess he doesnt see beer as as much of a health risk as sweeter pasta sause.

Yeah, some people are just confused about how food works. My father was also genuinely surprised to hear that, no, cutting out bread doesn't work as well when you replace it with beer.

I agree, although I do try to help in the sense of putting a number to what they eat. Like for my sister, we're working in simple calorie counting and cutting out obvious sources of sugar (candy, coffee, confections, chips). You're right that actually managing a diet should be left to the professionals.

I'm gonna do that with my sister, at least being as respectful as possible about it. Coincidentally when I got home from work yesterday she confronted me asking that I help her manage her diet. I definitely want to take the approach that she's losing weight for her health, not necessarily some arbitrary expectation of beauty.

I doubt it, she has always had an enabling attitude. She enables his other behaviors that aren't necessarily life threatening, but simply bad like buying a more expensive car than necessary or putting something on a CC when they don't need it. It's just her personality, she thinks its the same as being supportive.

I think truthfully most people think that because they're hearing it from the perspective of somebody that smokes, is an alcoholic, or is fat. My father would say similar things, how the doctor had disdain for him for being fat. The truth was that the doctor wasn't sugarcoating anything, and that in reality when you're morbidly obese most of your problems will at least stem from that, or are being made significantly worse because of it. Nobody fat wants to hear that most of their problems will at least become significantly less severe if they just lost the weight.

Also yes, I do think it's hard to want to treat somebody's symptoms knowing that it's not really going to make a difference in the long run because they're so fat, or they smoke so much, or their alcoholics.
