BG2008 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 What would be the most Marie Antoinette thing to do at this moment? (For laughs) 1) Someone wealthy doing a cooking video of making lobster roll (assuming they don't live in Maine or Nova Scotia) and passing it off as a normal Sunday Brunch recipe 2) Complaining about delays in delivery for bubble tea 3) Saying why can't these poor people just take their yacht to... 4) Complain about shortage of various gourmet cheese with veins of truffle 5) Complaining that No 3 Michelin star restaurants are currently open 6) Can't party in NYC, Vegas, London, Tokoyo, and Sydney on your birthday by flying in your private jet 7) The Ferrari factory is shutdown and you can't take delivery 8) That Sotheby's auction is postponed 9) Can't go glamping at your favorite EDM 10) Bonus this year is 7 figures instead of 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG2008 Posted April 24, 2020 Author Share Posted April 24, 2020 Does Shake Shack taking PPP loans go into this category? Or does that go into the Darwin award where it leaves a bad taste in me ever wanting a Shack Stack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Speaking of Ruth's. Not for the award because there's worse out there. But having the government remind you that at 470 million in revenue and 5,740 employees you're not a small business deserves an honorable mention.
