Too european for that, I thought you meant half an hour by foot. Most old people shouldn't be allowed to drive anymore.

I'm saying a half hour all together, driving across the street and into the massive parking area, finding a spot to park, walking from there into the amusement park, and finally deep enough into the park to find a restaurant. Then again, in reverse, to go back home.

You got something better to do?

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 4 points 1 week ago

For every meal, every day? Yes.

I mean, it sounds about what I do for groceries? Drive fifteen minutes to the store, find parking, walk through the store to get my stuff, drive home, takes an hour-ish. Then I gotta cook when I get home, so she's probably got the better deal here.

Yeah, there have been times when I was depressed, working night shift, and only eating one meal a day, so going to the grocery store was also the only place I'd actually see another human. It's more efficient to shop for a week or a month at a time, but then I'd've just been a shut-in.

Well, there's my problem.
