    So we are all just going to sit here arguing and we're not going to discuss The Sizzler? Now that was dining in style. Loved that places a kid.

    By calling out elitism?
    Odd take, but ok.

    LOL. Why don’t you work not not posting bigoted things. Then I can help you with the definition of ignorance.

    Not an odd take at all. This was your original statement:

    So you're placing yourself above everyone. The 'sigh' is a nice elitist touch too.

    I am soooo much better than you. I would never eat at a Golden Corral. Such low class. Clearly I am to regarded as smarter, stronger, richer, better looking and more successful based solely on your poor choice of dining.
    And for the code words…
    None of us have ever used the words Tennessee fan to mean inbred hillbilly, FSU fans to mean uneducated lowlifes, Miami fans to mean scum, Ohio State fans to mean uppity trash and Auburn Fans in place of children eating crayons…

    We haven't heard what "Golden Corral" is code for. It could be anything. Was it "very Golden Corral"?

    Pretty sure I didnt place myself above anyone. Pointing something it out is different than thinking you're better because of it.

    My wife speaks Chinese, so she likes to talk in "code" once in a while if she gets nervous. She'll use the Chinese word for "watch out!" or "warning" if we're in public and she's sees someone that looks like they are looking for someone to rob or is behaving suspiciously. And then she starts behaving suspiciously, just in case... Both she and her mother were robbed on the street in separate incidents when she was younger, and she's constantly on the lookout if we are in a strange place.

    Did she peck you with her beak? That could be painful.

    It really shouldn't matter what color her skin was. I would be more worried about how sharp her beak was, and whether she had sharp claws (was she fowl-handed?).

    You are pretty proud of those 3 business degrees you have, over in the engineering college we used to think business administration students were taking the easy way out.

    We did a quick ROI analysis. Didn’t pass muster. Still much better than the poor kids in Architecture

    Not a bad call, although the ROI potential might be higher for many graduates in the design fields. The wife got both her architecture degrees at UF. Those kids busted their butts. All-nighters were normal. They endured grueling critiques. She studied a lot more than me and got mad at me when I spent more time analyzing what my final grades would be versus a variety of potential test scores in my engineering classes than I did actually studying. They did get to go on cool long field trips to Seaside and Boston and Savannah, though. Finished out her masters program in Vicenza.

    I think I see what you did there, but what is “Mexican” code for?

    Maybe not born better but certainly raised better and I wasn’t aware that a racist was a class of people.
