    Motherfucker please...HA!
    One of us has a mortgage, 2 car payments and 2 kids in or entering college.
    One of us travels all over the world and eats out at boujee restaurants and shops EVERYDAY!

    Which one of us do you think is on a budget? HA!

    This makes perfect sense. I personally love the taste and texture of robots...

    It's a very cheap and easy way to figure out if someone is a T-800.

    I tell ya what... I thought Minneapolis had gotten bad....downtown Indy is a mess. Right here in the heart of downtown by out hotel, I'd say half the restaurants and shops are boarded up. Starbucks, Panera, Cheesecake Factory. And homeless everywhere. It wasn't this bad just last time we were here. I was able to get out and get some Steak and Shake as did Dame!

    You obviously during your worldly travels have never spent time in the ever cultured Midwest.

    I drove by Indianapolis once. Didn't stop though. Drove from St. Louis to Cincinati for a wedding.

    Midwest is creepy as fuck.

    New Orleans-Inspired Pastry Shop NOLA Doughnuts Closes All of Its Portland-Area Locations

    The shops, known for their square croissant-doughnut mashups known as “la’ssants,” have shuttered due to the ongoing financial impact of the pandemic

    Indiana definitely IS creepy as fuck. Not a particularly friendly state in my opinion, nor do they seem all that well informed about the rest of America. Went to the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame in Newcastle. $5 admission but the old lady running the place was literally indignant (and rude AF) because I wasn't an AARP member, which would have saved me a whole buck. Like it ruined her whole day. Kinda typical of most Hoosiers I met. Ohio is pretty shaky too but both Columbus and Cleveland were genuinely great places to spend some time. I kept hearing the "Midwest Nice" load of hype, but you had to go to the bigger cities to find it. And I too completely bypassed Indianapolis. Just didn't seem to be any "there" there.......
