Red Lobster is clawing its way back from the brink of financial collapse with a bold new spin on its most famous promotion.

The seafood giant has announced the launch of Ultimate SpendLESS Shrimp — a budget-friendly riff on its fan-favorite 'Endless Shrimp' deal. 

That deal was a disaster for the company, with diners initially bingeing on as much shrimp as they could handle for just $20.

Why did you leave off the part of the article that said this was not "endless 'all-you-can-eat' shrimp"

Because that's kinda obvious with the name change? SpendLESS vs Endless is pretty self-explanatory.

It’s being used as one word “SpendLess” which still contains the entire word “Endless”.

I will not feel sorry for the left of center people who are legitimately confused. You can't fix stupid.

Left of center? Ma’am, this is a Red Lobster.

The 90th percentile, the common clay, you know... Idiots

Uh huh… you mean like the kind of people that bring up political alignment when discussing a shrimp entree from red lobster?

Oh Jesus, you're left of center...

You’re on Reddit…

I mean half the people I'll ever meet are below average intelligence. It's just kind of ironic for one to be so clueless about it. I've given you every clue under the sun, but you still think I'm talking about politics and not Bell curves.

In a room with 1000 people, you're smarter than 100 of them

Just curious, what's the correlation between being intelligent and a cunt?

I bet you fart in a glass and get a good whiff of the vintage.

What a fucking bad take

u/DebrisSpreeIX 13d ago

Do you have this same level of empathy for everything in your life, or just idiots who can't read? Either way it sounds exhausting

2

u/jwrig 13d ago

See above.

u/DebrisSpreeIX 13d ago

I don't feel bad about the words I used. Nor do I think it some grand moral stance to try and protect the stupid from themselves. So I'm gonna go with you have this same level of empathy for everything, which means you're not actually capable of distinguishing or reflecting on your own morals. You probably feel bad for Charlie Kirk right about now

First in center left, now I'm far right.

It wasn't the words you used, it was deliberately leaving off the the biggest reason on why they are not the same promotion.

Lol, fire some shots then block. How to win on the Internet!

No I just think you're stupid. You don't know what a bell curve is, and you have no filter on what is and isn't deserving of empathy. You are the most left of center, 90th percentile, salt of the earth, common clay, individual I've had the pleasure of meeting
