    Economy is doing fantastic when people don’t have enough money to go “eat wings.”

        Titty money is just going online, taking business from brick and mortar. OnlyFans probably makes more than ever today.

          Aye. Why pay extra for mediocre wings and mediocre titties when I can get the wings to do from a specialist wing place, and get grade-breast meat from onlyfans?

          Plus I don’t have to tip for the inevitability mediocre hooters service

          mmm. still. in person vs online. I mean videos and magazines have been around for awhile. I gotta think the increase online might be a bit economic motivated. 30 years ago I knew a guy recently out of college who went practically once a week. I think that kind of spending is gone.

            The big moneymaker in online sex work or near-sex work comes from interactions, like chats, interactive private sessions, tips for specific things, etc.

            Yeah, but culture has shifted, too. As a restaurant, Hooters has been left behind by the same forces that are killing TGI Fridays and Red Lobster and most other chain restaurants. And its gimmick of scantily clad young women who are still covered up more than the typical person at a beach or swimming pool is just this mediocre half-assed zone between an actual restaurant and a strip club. It’s a business model that works for Boomers but not millennials or Gen Z, and has nothing to do with how much money millennials are willing to spend on going out (look at their concert, live show, and sports ticket spending, or their travel spending, or their overall restaurant spending to show it’s more of a shift than a reduction).
