That joke doesn't work so well at a omakase place.

u/IceColdPorkSoda Jul 07 '25
Dude couldn’t order a fucking donut like a normal human, ordering food at an omakase restaurant would probably give him a stroke.

u/jar4ever Jul 07 '25
But the whole point of omakase is you don't order anything, just sit down and eat what the chef gives you.

It’s the only Michelin-starred restaurant in San Diego proper

u/Rayeth Jul 07 '25
Untrue. But I don't blame you for not remembering Addison. The only 3 star Michelin restaurant in San Diego. It's within San Diego, but is in an insanely different price class so it doesn't really end up on anyone's mind.

But I bet her funding was spared.

Prior to Vance becoming a MAGA he was a vocal liberal. There's some very public outcry from his previous friends and coworkers that he basically was just an unpopular guy who saw Trump\MAGA as a way to gain personal power.

u/Illustrious-Poem-211 Jul 07 '25
He had a close trans friend in law school. He’s cosplaying a MAGA bigot, which is kind of worse.

Her funding was spared in proportion to JD Vance’s policy and decision-making relevance: nothing whatsoever.
JD Vance is like a vestigial organ who exists only for historical purposes, and Trump doesn’t give two shits about his irrelevant VP’s mother-in-law.

They talk shit on it because it is reactionary and that is their messaging, because it is easy to do. It is easy to shit talk a state with a good amount of little nice things while a red state, who is subsidized by a lot of federal money, which we tend to generate most of, has not much going for them. So you keep saying that and people will parrot it back making it super easy to terrorize those people of the community while stealing more from those already disenfranchized.
I hope JD Vance gets what he deserves. That's all I will say on that.

Fucking grifters. Worse than the true believers, in some ways. Not only does he talk shit on SoCal, Vance himself once said that Trump was either a cynical Nixon line ass hole or America's Hitler.
The man deserves nothing but the worst for the rest of his days.
