Before even entering the restaurant, we were given fancy Champagne.
At around 6:45 pm, we were greeted at the lobby with a Champagne toast.
It also turned out the Champagne was bottomless, as the staff kept returning to refill our glasses throughout the evening.

Before the first dish came to our table, our waiter asked if we wanted our meal with wine pairings.
Since I was breastfeeding, I opted out. My husband opted in.

“Rising food costs almost ruined the idea of the family dinner,” Lane told MarketWatch. “You can’t just go out and buy these massive amounts of ingredients — those big chickens and turkeys, and big meat loaves. All of the fixings. The cost of it is just too much.”

Instead, Lane serves it dining-hall style, where she writes the menu selection on a blackboard and lets them choose.

I'm guessing moo purposely omitted the free meals her brats get at school.

Are you honestly trying to convince me that you can buy enough food to include options for brats on $40 a week for six people?

The Lane family has also cut down on dining out. With one meal for six in a restaurant, “there goes our whole grocery budget for the entire week."

Also, WTF the Moo was a fucking NURSE and she quit her job to care for their defecto-brat! So they are living on the salary of the husband, who is an art director. Now you cannot fucking tell me that Duh made more as an art director than Moo made as a nurse. Why didn't he quit his damn job and stay home with Derpley?

should take a lesson from snowy owls and the cycles of the lemmings. in good years, they can raise successfully larger broods of owlets. in the harsh years, and they hatch out a large number of owlets, most of the time the majority of the younger ones end up on the menu to to feed the older ones. this ensures better survival and in better condition.
but humans and especially breeder humans don't or can't think that far ahead or encompass 'what if' everything goes south. it results in death for the offspring in snowy owls. human assholes, they just whine and demand handouts

the snowy owls feed the younger to the oldest
unless the oldest eat them first.
there was a young commenter on Reddit... this person was either in school... I think the higher grades or had just graduated. he said the defectos had top of the line equipment, computers, whatever it was new. the regular students and the advanced ones? old decrepit machines, hardly functionable. and these are the people that are going to be taxed to support the fucking tardleys because the best they can do (I don't fault them for this) is perhaps bagging at stores.
this kid saw it for himself and experienced the problems because of the tardleys and their entitled moos and duhs

I was in gifted classes, and this was my experience. The sped classes got fully furnished classrooms (plural) in the new wing of the building, with enough brand new computers that each student had their own. The gifted classroom was a converted closet with two ancient computers for everyone to share, a classroom library made up of hand me down books that were beat to shit, and we had to bring in money to pay for consumable classroom activities. When we build model rockets, we all had to pay for the rockets, when we built bridges, we all had to bring in extra masking tape and popsicle sticks, etc.
Every time I go back there are additional abandoned lots and empty storefronts on the main street, I guess that’s what happens when all of your brightest minds leave town immediately after graduation.
