    Meh, it’s been many many years. But I don’t remember Apple Bees being any worse (or better) than any other of those 90s chains. ( TGIF, Chilli’s, Ruby Tuesday, etc)

        Did that person think this was some killshot solely on Applebee’s?

        They’ve probably never seen a forest either with all the trees in the way.

      They ALL suck. Then on top of that you get assaulted with tipping culture. I don’t understand why people go to those places, aside from being morons.

      Similar feeling about movie theaters. It’s literally less comfortable for me and less picture quality than my home TV and couch.

        We found a gem of a theater tucked inside a dead mall. Tickets were like 6 bucks. Popcorn was similarly cheap. Like 25 bucks total for 2 tickets, popcorn snacks and a drink. Sadly it shut down. Now my options are shitty expensive theater or fancy expensive theater.

      I’m kinda the same, only for me it’s been decades. But I will forever remember Applebee’s fondly because that’s where I first discovered fried mozerella sticks and marinara sauce. It was a religious experience, and for a couple of years I went whenever I had money and opportunity just to eat those. Can’t say I remember eating anything else there; I must have, at least the first time.

      Applebee’s mozerella sticks are like Taco Bell tacos: they may not be the best quality, but if that was your introduction, nothing else can be quite as good in quite the same way.
