Yeah there's a lot more to how PE firms operate, but I did like how they tried to explain how the whole asset stripping process worked.

Me being 35 is why I HAVE TO talk shit. I'm old and my life has passed me by, and people listen to Taylor Swift and Doja Cat and weird-ass music and I once was "with it" but now I don't know what "it" is.
You think 35 is too old to listen to Taylor Swift?

She's 34. She is your age.

If you're 35 why are you making new accounts on defunct and dead websites. Surely you have better things to do than scour the internet for red lobster takes

You know

For a long time I thought Doja Cat was referring to some kind of cat meme, not a person.

For what it's worth, Red Lobster is still alive for now but I doubt it will be for all that much longer. Probably time for me to start figuring out if I can get the cheddar bay biscuit recipe right. Honestly, they'd probably have more luck if they just re-opened as a series of little shacks that make and sell biscuits.
They sell boxed mix atm ftr, could just stock up on that for a while

His first wife served him divorce papers at a Red Lobster under the guise of a fancy date night, to try to avoid him making a scene. Of course he made a scene anyway, and got banned across all locations, including Olive Gardens and Longhorn Steakhouses. This is personal.

Nah not really, I was like "oh red lobster discussion, let's see what people are saying" then obv I had to join in on the dunking once I saw what happened!

In case you aren't aware, leon is very anti-discord and even he's dunking on you, that should be a sign to you I think.

It's a sign that I dunno who the hell "Leon" is, but nah not a sign of anything else.

well that's fine, just don't bother trying to justify yourself when people keep dunking on you then, if you aren't willing to consider why so many people who have no idea who you are seem to not like you contact. By all means keep making a fool of yourself! I'm here for it

To be fair, that's like 2 more than whet he'd get on CE.

His usual gimmick is to try to start fights, get big mad about something, and then get suspended.

Anyway I hate that this can happen where you can just straight up bleed a company dry and get your money scot-free. This is dumb and bad and I wonder if there is anything that could even be done about it. I know nothing would, but could it? Like a provision where in such acquisitions, if you're gonna buy the assets you can't just sell it back to the same people. Or does that just get loopholed too

Red Lobster should become a bakery. Those biscuits carry hard.

I've never eaten at a Red Lobster, but my mother-in-law made some imitation cheddar biscuits once that I thought were pretty solid but were universally decried by everyone else present to not be nearly as good as the real thing.

So I guess that's a bummer.

If you like the rich private equity firms picking winners and losers in the market, you hate capitalism =)
They did buy the company, so they can do what they want with it. It's bad in a cultural sense and a maybe in a much broader economic sense (e.g. monopoly or trust issues) but as a single strategy to liquidate assets, there's nothing wrong with it. If Red Lobster didn't want the chance to be liquidated like this, they could've refused to sell. But then they would've gone bankrupt way before 2024.

Another thing is that these restaurants have always been real-estate businesses more than anything. Starbucks is prob the biggest example, but nearly all corporate-owned chains follow the same business model. They've snatched up valuable land and buildings for decades, all building up to this moment of liquidation. It had to come at some point. Honestly these chains have probably been a net negative on the country as a whole by driving such poor land use.

I think a lot of chains these days just are about the same as going to local, and I would much prefer the latter

cant even really do much at a red lobster because of a shellfish allergy lol

My MIL herself was leading the charge - it wasn't, like, unprompted criticism. She prefaced the meal with "I tried to make these, but I definitely think you'd be able to tell that they didn't come from Red Lobster even if I didn't say anything." And then she was the first to say that they weren't what she'd hoped.

Or you could change the behavior. This board is generally pretty receptive to (actual) changed behavior.

Bad precedent. He'll just come back looking for a new alt when that one gets banned.
Change is weird.

Walter: No, Donny. These men are cowards.
I just remembered I am currently 35. Dang.

"some of the world's most beloved brands like Delta and Hertz" is certainly a sequence of words that someone could write
"You're childish. What are you getting? Are you getting strawberry? Ha! That's such a childish flavor, only children eat strawberry."
I snorted with laughter at the Delta and Hertz thing, holy shit
there's technically another part in this where their all you can eat shrimp special was such a dumb idea because we're americans, you tell us all you can eat and you're goddamn right we'll eat.

so yeah that lost millions.
coupled with the BS rent stuff, no surprise they went bankrupt.

but more importantly, bullying a guy with French in his name just feels like kicking a dog, he's already French.
