    Do people not know that Cuzco is a real city? As in the capital city of the Inca Empire?

    It’s still there in Peru.

      I think you’ll find the actual city in Peru is more commonly spelled Cusco, whereas the emperor who lost his groove was named Cuzco.

      Also, lighten up, it’s a shitpost.

    Do Americans enjoy spending lots of money on a nice night out, where you sit in front of a panoramic window and look out at rows of beautifully designed pickup trucks and acres of scenic parking lots?

      I can’t speak for anyone else, but I usually go to the restaurant for the food, not the view of the outside.

      If you can sit and watch a beautiful vista of the ocean from the top of a cliff while you have your curry and it’s terrible curry, I’d rather see the pickup trucks.

      He says, as if strip malls are a purely american thing rather than a cheap ass suburb thing.

      A lot of these places are retrofitted stores, with what used to be display windows. This is a particularly egregious example though.

        I mean, they’re not “purely” an American thing, but they are substantially due to the influence of American city planning, which is why they’re most prevalent in places like Britain/Canada/Australia/New Zealand (because English-speaking places share ideas more easily with each other) and Okinawa (because of post-WWII American occupation).

    I love that restaurant where I can only walk 3 steps w/o passing out or my heart breaking exploding. Stimmies the appetite.
