A lot of Americans don’t have a private area outside of their car

I can’t tell you how many of my telehealth therapy clients meet me from their car because they don’t have a truly private space in their own home. I actually can tell you, it’s like 40-50% depending on when you ask me

Don't wanna excuse car-centric development, but i'd guess that they want the food to be fresh and they don't wanna film inside the restaurant, and car provide them some soundproofing from outside.

It's the lack of third places in the US (and increasingly everywhere else). The only place they can unconditionally exist at, outside of their house, is their car.

Actual reason: acoustics for media presentation. A car is a vocal booth.

Eh. Would you rather they sit in the restaurant and annoy everyone with their filming and talking?

i was driven by an uber driver yesterday who seriously thought cycling should be illegal.

his rationale was that bicycles are "unregistered vehicles and so if they cause accident who is going to pay?!" when i pointed out that probably they should pay just as anyone else he just dismissed it like this: "that is not possible. if a cyclist crashes into me and kills me who is gonna pay me?!" i was speechless after that.

I really don't understand who even watches videos like this. I don't trust anyone to have a good sense of taste except myself and my wife. Unless someone is a chef I trust, I don't want them telling me how the food "tastes" since most people simply can't.

If you want to try food, then try it. If you can't afford it, then don't think about it. You can probably make something like it yourself cheaper and better if you put in the effort.

Also, fuck large chain restaurants, support local food and establishments that treat workers well.

They practically live in the damn things.

Have you seen rent prices

TBF you want the food to be fresh and you also want an isolated place to review it alone.

Because the US is a dystopian nightmare

You know, I love what you guys are trying to do here. I love seeing the pictures you guys post when progress is made and I agree with you that the world would be better with more walkable places that are beautiful and green.

This post though? It is pointless and it makes you all look batshit insane.

“Oh no, someone used a drive thru. Stupid car brain! Use ur legs moron!”

Meanwhile I’m sitting here 45 miles from the nearest Walmart haha. Out here in rural hell I’d have to camp out overnight to finish my journey to get food.

I know, I know. I should take my talentless, unskilled ass to a city and leave everyone I know and love behind so I can walk from my cardboard box to McDonald’s.

Maybe I’m just in a bad mood. I usually like the posts here. This one just rubs me the wrong way.

Daymon Patterson aka Dayum Drops became YouTube famous and made/makes a good living doing food reviews from his car since 2010.

People who can't be original try to replicate success, I guess.

Well that and isn't a significant % of US citizens homeless these days?

Because there are kids and spouses and often parents and other family at home, can't shoot a video with all that noise.

Because it's dangerous to be outside without being inside.

Man, I cannot stand eating even chips in a car, yet this guy ate a whole lobster meal with butter dressing in it. Just seeing the thumbnail sends me shivers.

Try living here without one lol it's quite difficult and we try for years to get to a point where we can be free of the car

Because no one want to listen to them yap on and on in the restaurant. And it could be a long drive back to wherever you live. Or the people at their home don't want to listen to them either.

I was wondering a good 30 seconds who the fuck Carbrian was
