Now once you leave my subdivision you're no more than 5 minutes from everything from Mexican, Italian, Chinese, traditional southern, steak, BBQ, and a burger joint. And not a one of those are from a major chain.


so what makes Chilis convenient for you again?

Stick around and you'll find there's a lot you've still got left to learn.

It's not convenient to my home. But it is convenient from my office sometimes if I go over to Gardendale for something (which is not often). That's why I've only eaten there like twice in the last year.

ETA: I commute into Birmingham daily. I do not live here.

I'll also reiterate that Chili's is preferable to something like TGIFriday's or Bennigans

I'm thankful that I was fortunate enough to not have the experience to be able to compare these places.

You know what is really trashy? Thinking you are fricking better than someone based on where they choose to eat. You guys really need to get off your high horse. I dont normally eat at chains, but maybe some people like their food. Just because they might not take food as seriously as you does not make them trashy. LOTS of insecure people in here trying to make themselves feel better by judging someone based on their lunch.

which shows more insecurity

judging people for eating at chains and calling them trashy

or getting mad/offended when someone calls them trashy

it's the latter IMO

Im not mad it is just stupid. By this boards logic you can take a decorated war hero, who became a heart surgeon and does pro bono work for disadvantaged children and he is a piece of trash if he eats at chain restaurants. It is silly and immature. It is trying to make yourself feel superior to someone else based on you having better taste in food and nothing else.

So participating in the conversation at all shows insecurity?

No, I just agreed with what he said. You on the other hand flew in to attack me when I cracked a joke about Rickety.

Not necessarily. I have friends that love Chilis and they are not trash.

But if you like Chilis, the chances of you being trash go up significantly.

Sorry bro.
