This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I don't know where you live, but either you live in an expensive city, only eat burgers at hipster places, or are memeing. I can still find perfectly good burgers for 12€ in my city and they fill me up. It's not necessary to get stuffed and roll back home like a US landwhale.
Where do you live? I'm in The Netherlands and I don't think a burger/fries combo can be had under €17 at any restaurant in the country, with the exception of American fast food chains (which are kinda trash). I think restaurants in this country are very expensive compared to the average in Europe.
Exaggeration for the sake of the Argument. The US has loads of small restaurants and fusion kitchens with local diversity (soul food). Regarding the amounts I don't mind to have a "cheat day". I was at SaltLick BBQ in Texas and I was sad when I was filled up because of how good it was (Brisket!! pecan Nut Pie!!! Spearribs!!!!!!!!).
While I love me a cheese assortment with fine wine in Europe or similarly awesome food.
It's just hard to compare fine dining with food you just want to inhale asap.
You compare literal apples to oranges (and are pretentious about it, sry).
