Based on the waistlines from people coming out of the restaurant, probably not much.

I get that the place has a certain stereotype about it, but hell, if mom wants to go (no idea why she would, but if she does), then go.

Don't be such an asshole, take your mom out to dinner more than once a year...you might learn something by spending time with her.

Good advice, make it a win!

Agreed, plus the hassle of everyone else going out to eat on a holiday adding to the crowd.

Do you guys kiss your mothers with these mouths?? What's with the f-bombs???

At least most of you have your mom around to take out to eat.

I just wish mine was here, so that I could have told her Happy Mothers Day in person, and not over the phone.

...I thought she made parole?

4cards,,,,, No, she shanked someone about a month ago, blew her parole.

^^My oldest daughter lives in Cleveland and we weren't able to get together either. But I got a lovely card and we had a nice long phone call. These things happen, and the most important thing is that you're mom knows you love her.

My parents moved to California a few years ago. So Mothers Day and Fathers Day are kinda hard for me.

Buffets do serve a purpose. If you're thinking of changing your eating habits, but can't quire push yourself to get started, head to the neares buffet. The disgusting obesity overwhelming those places is sure to grab your attention and motivate you to take care of your body. Just watching the heavy eaters go on a pirhanna frenzy around the buffet will make you see how you don't want to spoil the gift of a body God provided you. Watch the portions, the speed of ingestion, the number of return trips, and the state of their children. It is horrific, but it will adjust your thinking.

one day soon kids are gonna eat FREE.



when Dave Blaney finishes in the top 10

Nothing says "Mom, I love you" like luring her into a battle royal of 3-ton humans fighting over the last scraps of horrible food haha.

So no I see no problem with it, I guess it depends how much you value your mom, that's all.

When did Golden Corral mandate that only fat people eat there??

They've never mandated it per se. They just strongly encourage it by serving up a spread of super high calorie crap all-you-can-eat style. Seriously, go to one someday. You'll see fat ass after fat ass wobble up and fill his/her plate to the brim with fried gravy goo. My advice when you're there: don't get between a hos and the dessert unless you can move fast, don't expect the "no sugar" pudding to be fresh, and stay away from the bathroom. I've been to Golden Corral once and Hometown Buffet once. Both visits were marred by having to overhear one of the All-Star Eaters have a lower bowel explosion in a crowded bathroom. Both were horrible. THe one that was worse however was the one where the blaster came out to the sink, washed up, and said to the mirror, "time to get back in the game".

That's the sort of thing that could traumatize someone bad enough that they'd be unable to ever visit ANY restaurant again for at least 17 years or so.

That is fanfuckingtastic

Ya know what...if that is where she wants to go then why not? Bound to be something there for everyone in your party who is going.

Ya know what...if my mom wanted to go to the GC, I think I'd rather curbstomp her. Besides, if I'm buying, it's your choice where we go, but I'm paying, and I have to agree with it!!

This thread is so funny. BTW if mom wanted to go to GC and I'm buying I will tell her pick a different place LOL. I cooked for my mom yesterday.

I still struggle with the memory of it and it's been a number of years. The "blaster" checked in at about 350-375. The pressure he released had to be in the three digit range of PSI. My post blast investigation showed evidence that he went "backboard" in the stall (i.e. used a bit of the tile wall behind the seat). His "get back into the game" line wasn't said to anyone in particular; he was looking at himself in the mirror when he said it. Another observation I vividly recall - his wiping took the form of only one tear off from the roll. Now I don't know about anyone else, but a spilled bowl of chili requires a lot more than one Kleenex to resolve matters, if you know what I mean. I therefore just assumed that he had logistical challenges due to girth that wouldn't allow a full rescue operation. And he was therefore at peace with Fruit of the Looms that had become radioactive.

And yes, the stench he left was capable of melting the tiles off othe wall and making young children cry.

HOF Nomination now!

DWO'B has thought about this before lol
