then it is sweating its ass off and probably being pillaged by crackheads.

I submit my post, I go to bed, I wake up, I look at this thread and I realize that perhaps not everyone is familiar with a certain LL Cool J song.

the times square red lobster fap must coincide with the rockefeller square/ice-skating fap

nooooo, these two activities are diametrically opposed and should never be put in tandem with each other

― Mary (Mary), Sunday, 27 July 2003 19:23 (twenty years ago) link

ok, but only cause you said so mary!

― Tad (llamasfur), Sunday, 27 July 2003 19:24 (twenty years ago) link

How are they diametrically opposed though? Anyway we should ice-skate and then have hot chocolate in a Starbucks and then go shop at FAO Schwarz.

I like Red Lobster. It sure ain't ghetto in State College.

did bubba sparxx play the state college red lobster? he looks like someone who could eat all of the "all you can eat" shrimp.

― Tad (llamasfur), Monday, 28 July 2003 00:18 (twenty years ago) link

I hear that Bubba Sparxx stays away from shrimp, for fear of the Forrest Gump-related jokes.

― oops (Oops), Monday, 28 July 2003 00:20 (twenty years ago) link

life is like a box of all-you-can-eat shrimp

― Tad (llamasfur), Monday, 28 July 2003 00:21 (twenty years ago) link

at first it's tasty and you can't get enough of it...

― oops (Oops), Monday, 28 July 2003 00:23 (twenty years ago) link

...and then you run out of cocktail sauce and your best friend runs off with your girl.

Red Lobster = summer, Nantucket, ocean shore vibe
Ice skating at Rock Center = winter, bilowy, X-mas vibe

If we combine them we will feel like we are Daryl Hannah in Splash.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 28 July 2003 01:44 (twenty years ago) link

Why wouldn't we want to feel that way, though?

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 28 July 2003 01:57 (twenty years ago) link

Except for having to date Tom Hanks, I guess.

Olive Garden > Chili's > TGI Friday's > Applebees > ... n^x ... > Red Lobster

Red Lobster = summer, Nantucket, ocean shore vibe

What? This is so not even true!

― Paul Eater (eater), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:21 (twenty years ago) link

Red Lobster = "you're 500 miles from water, but we will still dare to serve you seafood and pretend that it's fresh and tasty" vibe

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:23 (twenty years ago) link

Or, if you live near a coast, it's the "you're right near the ocean, the town is full of good seafood, and you're eating here???!!!" vibe.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:24 (twenty years ago) link

Yes, yes, I know, I was overstating for the purpose of the comparison. People do get hoity-toity about their chain restaurants. If you all want to end up crying like Madison in the bathroom with no legs that's fine, just don't expect me to condone such madness.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:26 (twenty years ago) link

I've lived my entire life in hopes of becoming a mermaid, don't dash my dreams now. My kindergarten teacher told me I could be anything I wanted.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:27 (twenty years ago) link

Okay okay, the mermaid FAP ;) but! can we really wait until the ice freezes over before we go to Red Lobster? I don't think so!

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:31 (twenty years ago) link

Well obviously no! I want to go now!

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:38 (twenty years ago) link

I think I am busy the day of this FAP, sorry.

― Paul Eater (eater), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:40 (twenty years ago) link

Surprise surprise you are too good for us yet again! see if you get your cds now.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:42 (twenty years ago) link

Who wants your lobster-smelling CDs anyway?!

― Paul Eater (eater), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:48 (twenty years ago) link

Haha it's not even real lobster dude, I mean come on, Red Lobster.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 28 July 2003 02:58 (twenty years ago) link

Why, do you have another date with phil or something?

We should totally go to a Jersey Red Lobster.

― rosemary (rosemary), Monday, 28 July 2003 03:18 (twenty years ago) link

But the brand-new Times Sq. Red Lobster needs our support!

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 28 July 2003 15:54 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah, especially if Tad is going to pay for me.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 28 July 2003 15:56 (twenty years ago) link

i walked in the general vicinity this morning and forgot to check out whether it's open or not ... i'll tie a string to my finger so i remember to do so on my way home tonight

― Tad (llamasfur), Monday, 28 July 2003 15:56 (twenty years ago) link

It opened last week!

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 28 July 2003 16:16 (twenty years ago) link

five months pass...

I used to eat there all the time when we lived in Ohio, but I always got the chicken, which I guess was kind of missing the point. I don't know, it was pretty good. People who ate there seemed to act like it was kind of "fancy" to frequent Red Lobster.

FACT:Mrs Nordic has worked in both Olive Garden AND Steak N Shake. She's something of a service industry veteran, but her charm hasn't suffered for it.

― Fatal Beret (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 05:03 (twenty years ago) link

my mom told me that she and dad have started eating at the lobster ... and that they like it!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 05:30 (twenty years ago) link

monsta lobsta!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 05:30 (twenty years ago) link

I don't mind Patrick Swayze, he's OK I guess. But you might need to explain that one as I'm a bit slow.

― the music mole (colin s barrow), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 05:32 (twenty years ago) link

why i love new york city again

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 05:36 (twenty years ago) link

Red Lobster ain't ghetto. Captain D's, on the other hand....

― Pleasant Plains (Pleasant Plains), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:13 (twenty years ago) link

The Red Lobster by my parents' house in NJ is attached to a MOTEL. Sweeeeeeet.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:46 (twenty years ago) link

eleven months pass...

So I went to one with my parents in Oceanside over the weekend. It was *much* better than I remembered and had been expecting due to the posts on this thread. Maybe it was just this one? No more endless salad. Menu was well designed. Decent wine too.

I can't think of Red Lobster now without being reminded of the "Guess Hoes Coming To Dinner" episode of Boondocks anymore. DAMN GRANDDAD.
