lol at "no such thing as a free lunch" being completely untrue lies made up by neoliberal ghouls
Sharing food with others, one of the most common human group activities over the last couple of thousands of years?
No such thing as a free lunch
You should brush up on your reading comprehension because the lunch was literally free, people did not pay for lunch or, if we consider your view, far less than what the lunch is worth. The point is that you could pay only for the cost of beer and the lunch comes free. If you bothered to read the Wikipedia article you would see that "These establishments included a "free" lunch, which varied from rudimentary to quite elaborate, with the purchase of at least one drink. These free lunches were typically worth far more than the price of a single drink.[1] The saloon-keeper relied on the expectation that most customers would buy more than one drink, and that the practice would build patronage for other times of day."
It was a marketing strategy for bars, sell at a loss and gain a profit another way. The point remains however that they would literally give you a lunch for free, something that I did not know actually happened.
Ergo hog et poster hog
I believe it's what start ups today would call a "loss leader". An actual loss (ergo, an actual free lunch), with the expectation that it leads to more sales and profit in the future.

Oh, good for you. You JUST learned what the song meant and got to awkwardly (yet incorrectly) use it in the real world! I bet you're super proud of yourself 😊

Why do people post like this lmao
Narrator: And here we see the lib poster, he neither hears or sees himself. In this hostile world of posts, he relies on the pack to survive, their shibboleths are designed to cause a herding behavior giving them safety in numbers, but today he has wondered far from the pack. Def and blind, he calls to pack, but his calls only draw the attention of the lingering critical minds slumbering within the threads...
Narrator: The lib confronts the shadows with confidence, unaware that he is without the safety of his pack to shower his unintelligible barks with up votes and hallow platitudes. Lacking in self awareness he continues to lash out at those around him, unaware of the hole he is digging for himself. Once deep inside this hole he will blame anyone but himself.
🤣 ok, you're not capable of discourse, just showboating for up votes. That's cool I guess.
Narrator: And yet it was he who was not capable of discourse. Such is the nature of the lib.
Narrator: and here we see the lib doing it's most common performance where in it transformed its self into a projector.
Narrator: backed into a corner, scared and afraid, it desperately tries to inflict harm, only to be eaten by the administrators. Such is the life span of the liberal here in these parts of the network. Nature continues without much of a care for the liberals departure.
GOOD bit
idk if you were cleaning the thread but I think this one was accidental:
Don't think that one was me, but I've fixed the error. Thanks for the heads up!
Genuinely, how have you made it to this point in life when it's this easy to get a rise out of you? How have you not dashed your head on a mirror fighting your own reflection like a deer?
The discourse! The discourse! The disssscoooouururrrreseefjkreurfgjnerjurodifjgidegvcf
Keep posting, buddy
In these days posting through it is the only option.
He says, as he demonstrates a complete inability to think for himself.
