    It absolutely baffles me that people are willing to spend that kind of money on low-quality takeout food that often arrives cold. I live just five minutes away from several five-star restaurants. If I wanted to, I could call ahead and pick up a fresh, high-quality meal in half the time it takes for a soggy, lukewarm fast food burger to show up at my doorstep—and I’d pay only a third of the price.

    I genuinely don’t understand the appeal.

      Most people don’t live so close to good restaurants. And driving is so miserable that they’ll pay others to do the driving for them.
