Prices from 03/2026 in case anyone is curious

I was curious how the prices compared to inflation so I plugged it into the inflation calculator

$2.55 in 2016 (equal to 1 cheesed burger) has the buying power equivalent of $3.55 in 2026. There is a $.55 deficit which is why we must do eco fascism

“Imagine a less expensive burger”

A little meta and maybe a nitpick, but "food" doesn't need a content warning label. It's dead animals or their secretions (meat/dairy) only that need the content warning. Whether intended or not, it comes across as being rather snarky or disdainful about the rule here to warn about "food" when food is not the not the problem. It would be like if there were slurs or casual ableism in a screenshot image but the content warning for it was "[CW: Human Interaction]"

Wait prices are like this in part because we are killing people, champ

Burger Reich's Final Solution

i never had an in-and-out burger. or a jack in the box. never been in the geographic footprint for long enough with little else to do but have a borger, but people talk about them both like there's some important cultural experience to be had. i spent a bunch of time in rural New Mex outside of g-town, so I had Blake's which was alright. (red or green, or no? i'm red & green, yeah). also, they call Hardees "Carl's Jr" out there. whatever the fuck that's about.
