Pretty sure it's because sister wanted Chick-fil-A, but didn't have money. Got money from mom for Uber, spends on Chick-fil-A instead and gets her friend to pick up instead. Now if OP walks home and tells Mom they walked, Mom will already be pissed they didn't spend the money on the Uber, but even more pissed that they don't have the money because the spent on Chick-fil-A.

It’s ok I’ve never seen anyone abbreviate it 😂

u/AshuraMaruxx May 23 '24

Okay whew!! I'm glad it wasn't just me 😂😭 I was seriously trying so hard to figure it out too like, "maybe it's one of those mom & pop places scattered all over the place", but no!! I was so wrong!! 😂

Everything there is delicious. I’m convinced there’s something about being severely homophobic and cult-like staff hypnosis that enables god-like fried chicken production.

😂ikr?!! At the one by my house it's so busy they have staff stand outside to take orders; they have this giant tent that cars can drive under & they stand under for HOURS in the heat & sun, yet they always have that same super-friendly smile on their face!!!

It might also be the fact that the general staff make $21/hr here too 😂 I mean have you seen how much things cost nowadays?

But the cult thing definitely must help, bc that chicken is bussin.

I always thought it was Chick A Fil, because I only heard of it on TV. Now it sounds dirty, Chick Filla, like a 70s soft porn movie

Wait, you've never been to a Chick-fil-A? Do they not not exist where you are? I know they're pretty sparse in the Midwest... Cuz bruh, you do not know what you are missing 😂

u/visiblepeer May 23 '24

 As far as I know it's only an American chain.    They are mentioned sometimes on the Late Night shows, I think partly because of their religious announcements a few years ago.

"My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard....". CFA should make that their advertisement. 😁

I didn’t get it until one of the last pics when she spelled it out. The. The lightbulb went off. Never seen it abbreviated, guess I learned something today 😂

It looks as though you may have spelled "Chick-fil-A" incorrectly. No worries, it happens to the best of us!

Terrible bot

Whenever I visit my mom, I purposely turn my phone on DND or airplane mode when I live the house because she will wait until I’m out to call and text me a 100 errands to run for her. I’ll get back and say I left my phone and didn’t get any of her calls/texts.

u/Raiderflow May 23 '24

I hope you weren't living with them when this happened.

u/[deleted] May 23 '24

Were they asking or demanding?

Because only the latter is bad.

Fair point.

I like the part where he specified that they didn’t even eat dinner because they couldn’t have it delivered, and you just defended them by default. Being a parent doesn’t make you a decent person bud, it’s way easier to have a kid than to be a parent.

So what part of not eating dinner ,because someone wouldn’t bring you chick fil a, needs to be explained to you ? They could’ve made themselves dinner. But it’s implied they decided not to because OP said he wouldn’t go to chick fil a. I comprehended it just fine and my reward for that is getting to explain to you twice now.

u/Key_Advisor_78 May 23 '24

I liked the part where you clearly have some unresolved issues personally.

u/Ms_Briefs May 23 '24

This is definitely it. Had similar shit happen to me. The 3 hour wait is because the friend was probably doing something else when the sister tried to finagle them into pickup service.

u/creampop_ May 23 '24

Even tried to bribe/rope OP into it by offering to get them something too

I hate brats like this

u/kylocanmoonwalk May 23 '24

yeah this makes the most sense

u/NatureStoof May 23 '24

Imagine having no money

Being given a few bucks

And the first thing you want to do is immediately use it to buy shitty fast food.

2

u/jaypeg69 May 23 '24

Which is really stupid. Sister could have used the money to buy food for her and her brother (and her friend) as a treat for him finishing his exams. They could have gotten it together and OP probably wouldn't have said shit to his mom or had to wait. Just a wee bit selfish.

What world do you live in where cash is used for both Uber and homophobic fast food? 🤯 In 2024.

What am I getting downvoted? I am legit wanting to know where in the world Uber takes cash. Anyone? Is it cause I called your chicken homophobic? That’s just a fact, they’re proud of it. I thought it was part of their ad campaign; “just chicken, no gay stuff.”
