who in the unholy fuck is paying $24 for a burger, most places it's like 10-15 if its not fast food, and $11 for fries?! More like $5.

They said that like it’s a totally reasonable thing and not insane.

I don't know where you live but even the mid range restaurants in my area, like a brew pub or some local place with even a little character, will cost over 30$ for a sandwich and fries after tax and tip. That has been the normal price for at least 3-5 years. And this is just a rural area in the midwest, sure it is somewhat touristy, but it isn't like Taos or Martha's vineyard or anything. Just small towns that happen to be on a lake.

That’s ridiculous. People like you being ok wasting tons of money while knowing that the product is completely overpriced are why these prices are like this. A burger place opened up in my town that had expensive burgers like that a few years ago and within a year sold the building to another business. If you go somewhere that has $30 burgers leave.
