You know what would be awesome? A simple website with the logos of businesses who want to play this game. Nothing malicious, just the logos of any company who has this sentiment and when you click that logo, a page that shows sources and perhaps if it's a franchise, a way to reach corporate.

How dumb does a person have to be to think Trump is responsible for the governors shutting down restaurants?

The narrative of Trump mishandling the China virus is as evil as it is flat out wrong. Everytime someone utters that shit I know that they're fucking dishonest and stupid.

Restaurants should have shown a little resistance to shutting down. Instead, they acted like scared little bitches along with all the other lemmings. If anything, they should have been rioting in the streets over the lock downs.

Bars and restaurants rely on municipal permits, and the effectiveness of their graft. Every single one is, in the practical sense, a highly vulnerable franchise of its local government.

The slightest step out of line can be more costly than the physical destruction of the establishment itself, in terms of the goodwill of the civil authorities, and the licenses, permits, compliance validations, and civil code variances that might need to be re-established.

Governments like money.

Should ask for a refund for the money they paid to get the 2020 award.

Ridiculous nobody cares for that bogus award .

The entire wine rating industry revolves around a pack of grifters who rate based upon the quality of the free shit they were able to procure at the tastings set up by these desperate, pompous restaurants. The whole thing is tacky and undignified.

Wine isn't bad, but people who regularly drink wine are the worst. Change my mind

I like wine! But I always thought ratings were bullshit. But I get your point.

If MD 20/20 and or Thunderbird aren't on your best wine's list, you're doing it wrong.
