Look at this crap. And you wonder why there is so much white-woman bashing!

I have so many comebacks waiting to spew out ... but I'll be bigger than that.


Breathe, Newbie, breathe. ONE woman has said that she doesn't want to talk to drunk foreign men. That may or may not include you.

Personally, I like Teva sandals and would prefer them to men wearing high-tops or overly-shiny sneakers.


I have Teva flip flops and very comfy they are too.

I'm a vegetarian too. I don't usually have a great time at Carne Station food-wise, so I make up for it with Whiskey-and-Pepsi Floats.

Petras would be great and I say bring the spawn! I am not a drinker and definately not a 1 in the afternoon.

Hopefully we can chat and network a bit and everyone can get home early as most of us are pretty busy folks. Sujis might be nice too as it is easy to find.

I think the 25th would be great.

June that is.

Carne Station is a no-go for me.
can we have a vote? personally, i favor petras.

I've never been there for lunch. How does that work, exactly? You pay for the buffet as you enter, as per normal, and then what? You pay again each time you refill your mug? Pay who? Where? Or do they send waiters over to take your booze orders and keep tabs?

Carnivorous Station should create a separate (lower) buffet price for herbivores, or charge them the kids' price.
Or, spruce up their vegetable & non-meat dishes. A LOT.

I believe, and I could be wrong, that the phrase "drinks are extra" means that there are seperate buffet prices, one including drinks, and a lower rate if you are not planning on drinking.

Possibly, but that doesn't sound like it would work. If lunches are even half as chaotic as the dinner shifts, there'd be no way they could keep track of who was drinking and who wasn't, who paid to drink and who didn't. Besides, even during the dinner shift, you see people bringing back several drinks at once to their tables for their friends. No way could they police a big bunch of crafty Western chicks the whole time! Razz

You do not actually do this with ice cream.

I'll bet she does, though. Have another look at the "My Favourite Cocctail" thread, the sweet & creamy drinks the girls like. It'll all start to make sense.
