This Chick-Fil-A drive through proves that laziness > efficiency


Okay, so I rolled up to my neighborhood Chick-Fil-A (shocker I know) to grab some lunch and saw this line.  Holy shit.  This is why I never use the drive thru.  Look at this fucking line!  In fact there were another one or two cars pulling up when I took this photo at 1:15PM.  Seriously people, are you so fucking lazy you can't get off your ass to go inside and bring it back to your car?  You'd rather sit in this fucking line?

Here's a pro tip:  Park, order from the app from the parking lot, walk in, get your order.  I do that all the time and it takes 3-5 minutes max.  Then I'm on my happy way.  Look, I'm a dickhead who's currently in between jobs and have time to kill, but looking at that line gave me convulsions as I've still got shit to do (you know, like write this blog).

Oh, other benefit from using the Chick-Fil-A app?


Don't mean to brag, but this loosely translates to me being the fucking man.  Be nice and I may gift you some rewards, but probably not, I'll say "Fuck you, this Chick-Fil-A is mine."

One parting thought about this drive thru line:  Monday is usually the slowest for the restaurant industry since people tend to dine out on the weekend and then aren't so eager to do so on Monday.  However, when you deprive the good citizens of this country some of the finest God-fearing chicken on the planet for one day, just one fucking day, you get shit like that photo above.  People lined up well after the normal lunch hour like a bunch of meth heads looking for a fix.  Scarcity is a powerful tool when it comes to supply and demand (see: McRib).

I'm calling it now - 2019 is gonna be the year of Spencer



Gotta apologize to my 12 readers for taking so much time off of the blog game.  Had a bunch of things going on in my life, and while I'm not known for sharing a bunch I can tell you this:


  • I found a new job.  Let me tell you, working full-time and conducting a job search is fucking exhausting.  That took up most of my time and energy.
  • Some of you may know that I bought a condo.  Well, that new construction was repeatedly delayed to the point where I decided "Fuck this" and cancelled the contract.

Anyway, why is 2019 (and really the last month of 2018) going to the year of Spencer?  Well for one, my work commute is going from this:


(This can be anywhere from 30-45 minutes in rush hour traffic)

To this:

This will probably take me 6 minutes if i decide to hop on one leg.

But more importantly:

Can't wait.
