people that YELP are scumbags

I think the soy sauces you buy in the store are all vegan. Soy beans, wheat, water, salt, and the fermenting fungus.

I mean, I'd get it if they ate like a gigantic plate of beef...

Not even that, tbh. They had a bad case of preciousness.

that's a bit like wile e. coyote only falling when he looks down to see air beneath his feet

ha, this is brilliant. i'm using this next time a vegetarian tells me they "felt sick" after they accidentally had a spoonful of baked beans that were cooked with bacon fat.

Nah, veggies can feel sick from eating stuff with meat. I imagine for a lot of them it's psychological, but I've known enough people who've become unused to eating certain foodstuffs who get sick on it that I think there is an inability to process after a while... not just vegetarians, either. Just general 'not had this before/for a while, ooh my stomach feels odd'.

On the other hand... I always thought that *all* soy sauce was fish-based, so it seems a bit odd to blame a restaurant for your own ignorance.

leaving aside the case of food that would make anyone sick, i have no reason to believe any of the junk theorizing around "losing the ability to process" meat.

I was raised vegetarian and didn't taste meat until I was in my teens. If the ability to process flesh is acquired, I'd seem like a good case for someone who never acquired it in the first place, let along lost it.

But on the rare occasions when I have e.g. eaten a steak at a grandparent's birthday or accepted hospitality offered in good faith or gone native for a few months in a place where vegetarian food is hard to come by, I've never had a problem.

Disgust is not indigestion, and I suspect that a lot of vegetarians who "got sick" after eating meat would have been fine if no one had told them what was in the soy sauce.

well duh

not "duh" that's too strong, I mean you are 100% correct and there is a lot of psychosomatic nonsense tied up in these physical reactions

that guy's reviews read like the onion articles where they make fun of contemporary poets.

Disgust is not indigestion, and I suspect that a lot of vegetarians who "got sick" after eating meat would have been fine if no one had told them what was in the soy sauce.

i was referring specifically to folks who seem to have no reaction at all until someone tells them "btw there was bacon in that."

so yeah, agreed.

we are all in agreeance, I think

tbqf i imagine it's like how jason patric in lost boys was like mmm chow mein and rice until kiefer was all they're worms and maggots, faced.

omar killin it with both those analogies

djp/amtrst i was really responding to emil.y but probably took it too far bc i'm laid up, in pain and grumpy. just having little tolerance for the preciousness of veggie-come-latelies tonight.

Don't look at me, I just ate wayyy too much chicken.

Now going to sue the restaurant, brb.

oh, i was agreeing w/ you 100% and disagreeing w/ emily.

it only *tasted* like chicken

Hipster central. Awful techno music with no vocals or any sort of build (and I actually do like electronic dance music normally.) It's quite literally a basement. I guess the graffiti-ed walls and ceiling are kind of cool, but I kept looking around expecting to see a rat. They actually ran out of several of the drinks that were on special, even though it wasn't really packed.

That said, my friends and I had a great time, but it had pretty much nothing to do with what Medusa actually has to offer.

so...

"if we could give ourselves 5 stars we would"

Yuh.

It's quite literally below street level!!!

"...I kept looking to see a rat. They actually ran out of several of the drinks that were on special.."

I love the way this is worded. I had to read it twice because I legit thought rats were coming out of the drinks

they were disappointed there was no graffitti renderings of rats i think

I have never been to a bar before, two stars

lol

that place looks rad

yeah I think it's a great space. I always forget about it tho...

UH. MILKSHAKE. BROUGHT. ALL THE GIRLS. TO THE YARD. Yeah it was $5 but that caramelized hazelnut shake was the best thing ever.

VINCENT: Can I have a sip of that? I'd like to know what a five-dollar shake tastes like.

MIA: Be my guest. You can use my straw, I don't have kooties.

VINCENT: Yeah, but maybe I do.

MIA: Kooties I can handle.

VINCENT: G&*@#n! That's a pretty f@#$%&n' good milk shake.

MIA: Told ya.

VINCENT: I don't know if it's worth five dollars, but it's pretty f@#$&n' good.

where do these people live that paying $5 for something blows their fuckin minds

$6 is reasonable for a really good milkshake.

i've never spent less than like $4.50 for a G&*@#n milkshake

i worked at an ice cream place a small one requires like four large scoops

Gaxehn milkshake

gordian milkshake

The security at this mall harasses and kicks out people for dressing differently. No explanation was provided for why a group of girls was kicked out; they were just shopping and placed some purchases before heading to the food court. However, they were dressed in an alternative Japanese fashion style. They were escorted to the exit with no reason given and even though they left without making a fuss one security guard harassed one of the girls, getting very close and in her face. She is now traumatized from this aggressive behavior and is seeking legal and psychological counsel. The security staff called the police, but since there was no crime committed the police officer did nothing. It is unclear why security acted in the manner, but I urge you not to support a mall that hires such unprofessional and rude security guards.

"Awful techno music with no vocals or any sort of build"

sounds great!

"Rude bartender, regulars charged different than others."

From a 1-star review of a dive bar. Textbook Yelp view, the idea that giving regulars a deal is a bad thing. DISCOUNTS SHOULD BE GROUPON BASED LIKE GOD INTENDED.

The 35-year-old "lifelong entrepreneur" says he came up with the card after visiting a restaurant in Paris where he got poor service — they served him the wrong kind of tea with his meal — until he threatened to write a bad review on TripAdvisor.

"The next thing I knew, the waiter was back with the manager, who apologized and offered to pay for my breakfast," he said.

Thinking in a hurry, Newman decided to start issuing cards that do nothing except tell proprietors that you have an account on Yelp and you're not afraid to use it.

back of card should read "when the revolution starts, i will be first against the wall"

ugh that is so gross

lmao al

hahaha

For those who want their food spat in by management rather than the workers.

HELLO I AM A DOUCHEBAG AND THIS ESTABLISHMENT IS NOW MY DOUCHETERIA, HERE IS MY CARD

I'm going to make cards that businesses can give to Reviewercard cardholders with their receipts that say, "people that YELP are scumbags."

A. CARDHOLDER

If I were a restaurant owner I'd throw them out.
