Dear restaurant owners:We ALL hate the QR code menu.

@cmconseils Stick alternative QR codes over them and maybe they'll stop.
@lydiaconwell @cmconseils someone should start making those lol.
definitely a gap in the market -
Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.
Stop.
-everyone@cmconseils So true, I hate having to scan those QR codes just to see the menu.

@NickSchwanck @cmconseils The problem with "voting with your dollars" as they call it is that it doesn't work when everyone does the bad things. You can refuse to go to one that does a bad thing, but then you'll just have to go to another that does...

Stop.
-everyone@cmconseils Also, let me look at the menu without having to start an order. One click. Not difficult.

Same goes for the cards in estate agents' windows.
#QRcodes #VeryIrritating -
@NickSchwanck @cmconseils I mean, that's kind of the system we've been stuck in. You wanted restaurants for convenience, but they screw you. So you give up the convenience to make your own, but the food sellers are Oh So Bad
. You can try growing your own, but you'll have to get the right seeds and then deal with all that, so you've gone from the convenience of just trying to get some food to spending months growing and tending a garden.It's better if you can do it, but not everyone as a whole can and they count on that.
I guess I just really miss back when people would put their collective foot as a society down against bad things. Now everyone just caves if there is the slightest inconvenience so this happens.
(And yeah, I do not have the answers on this. I sure wish that I did.)

Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.
Stop.
-everyone@cmconseils Luckily I don't eat out anywhere where this is the case. Do the QR codes give them your phone # or any identifying info?

Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.
Stop.
-everyoneI'd leave immediately. Every time. How very *dare* they?!

@otte_homan @lydiaconwell @cmconseils what you must never do is look online for people posting pictures from restaurants, and order fun drinks and snacks for them using the QR codes visible on the menus

Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.
Stop.
-everyoneI would rather have a sheet of paper printed on an inkjet.

Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.

-everyone@cmconseils Yes. Stop making me use my phone when I just want to sit down and eat some fajitas.

Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.
Stop.
-everyone@cmconseils I refuse to pay for a place that makes me use my phone and always ask for a hard copy of their menu.

Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.
Stop.
-everyone@cmconseils The cost of a cheap inkjet printer and some no-name inks is probably less than your menu service.

Stop.
-everyoneYou actually triggered a whole imaginary conversation in my flip-phone-carrying brain. "You don't want my business? Just because I refuse to carry a distraction rectangle? WTF?"

Dear restaurant owners:
We ALL hate the QR code menu.

-everyone@cmconseils Pretend you have a year 2000 Nokia and ask if you can order there or in the restaurant on the other side of the street.

What brand printer accepts no-name ink?

@nazokiyoubinbou @NickSchwanck @cmconseils
I see this caving as childish. People need to fucking grow up. In the US, at least, I feel like I'm surrounded by middle schoolers busy pretending to be adults.
And calling them "middle school" is being generous.

@Uair Brother, with some obnoxious reminders from them.

@Uair @NickSchwanck @cmconseils We live not in an apathetic society as one might think, but outright antipathetic.
I do find it ironic that people are taught to hate the concept of laziness in any form and to apply it to anyone they see as not working hard enough, yet they're actually the ones who avoid effort — even just the bare minimum — in anything where they can fight to avoid it. (Expending more effort to avoid effort. If that isn't laziness I don't know what is.)
I think the biggest problem of all is people really really do not like to think.
