I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!
Only goofs & silliness. (:

Museums, Coffee Shops, and Libraries.
The reason so many cities have 2 bars on every block is because THERES NOWHERE ELSE TO FUCKIN GO AT NIGHT.
I'm still pissed they closed everything at like 8pm after Covid and never changed it back. Being a nightowl sucks in this world.
Morning people are an oppressive class.
Now imagine being there kind of morning person who has to wait until things start opening before they can do anything.
Work starts at 6 but there are no kitchens open at 5...
Ain't no bread up on the table
Ain't no butter in the pan
But you better not complaaain boooy
You get in trouble with the man
Let the midnight special shine a light on me...
Same. There used to be an all night cafe by one of the colleges near me. It was one of those "hidden gem" places for night owls. I had only just discovered it shortly before Covid hit, which closed it down for good. Damn it.
Man, I keep going back to my own small town in this thread.
There was one single screen theater, it would show movies at 7 so out around 9:30-10, I don't think itnwas even every day.
A coffee shop opened next door. But they were not open late. Like dudes... be open when the movies let out! Its like an hour, 3 nights a week.
An hour of some activity probably doesn't cut the hours of non-activity before and if it's a small coffee shop, likely worked by owner and one or two employees.
Would you give up an hour 3 times a week for so little? Time is money.
When I drove a taxi, the last full month I did included driving a blind kid to a sport he had a few times a week. It was usually around 19-20 (7-8pm). But preceding it I had no fares for like two hours, and the one fare before was driving him there. And before that usually no fares. So I'd wake up in the morning at like 5.30, get ready and start driving kids to school. I'd be mostly finished around 3. And then I'd have the rest of the day off. But, I had trouble saying "no" to employers when asked for things. So when they asked whether I'd drive the kid at 16.30 and then back at 19.30, I pretty much always did. But that made it so my 6-15 day became 6-20.15 or so. And it increased my pay by maybe 15€. That ended up in a breakdown not many weeks after.
So I'm just saying I understand your view that they might have a good sale or two when the movies let out. But if the shop has to keep an employee, it's prolly not profitable, and the owner probably can't be arsed for the little profit he'd get for spending several more hours just waiting.
Yeah, a good kitchen has to be cleaned and maintained before and after use.
I'm asleep at night.
