he was depressed and hated his girlfriend, his life and the world
>I'm gonna rebel against le system by shitting on a low wage worker
just typical boomer shit
That’s not the point of the scene, the hippie girls cheering him on are like that but he doesn’t give a frick about rebelling against the system, he’s just bitter and raging
>AAAAAAAAHHH I HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND 90% WHITE AMERICA WITH THESE HOT CHICKS I'M SO BITTER
My point stands
>hot chicks
>hot
get your eyes checked NOW
VERY gay post, sad!
>and a large soda
Half Coca Cola, half Diet Coke. I'm trying to watch my figure.
I’ve done that. When diet isn’t sweet enough, and regular is too sweet.
satan
anyone who orders an omelette without cheese is the devil's tool
>I'd like a plain baskin, no roberts, trust instead, a cup of fund, and wheat band
What's a wheat toast? Toasted cracked wheat?
Maybe you're European, processed bread comes from white flour or a more whole wheat form which is brown and is considered healthier. I get rye or an english muffin at diners though.
I'd like a flight plan, no masketta man, pavel instead, listing me, and my men
Don’t forget about leaving this plane, with no survivors.
>i want my baby back baby back baby back
I want CHILIIIIS BABY BACK RIIIBS CHILIIIS BABY BACK RIIIIBS
>what the frick was going through his fricking head when he said this dumb shit?
He was thinking he was the Tulsa King and that the waitress worked for him now.
what is wrong with you?
Yep, I'm thinking we have our next bane/sneed!
i always wonder if it's real people doing this out of passion, agencies doing this to dilute conversation, AI bots, or a mix of all three
OP here. For some reason when I'm hungry I think of this scene, so I usually toss up a thread when I'm eating.
why are you eating so many meals whilst being on Cinemaphile (formerly chan)? it's bad for your digestion
Typical Gen x'r. Had an easy life, nice wife, job lined up nah lets cheat on her and go on a road trip with lesbians while ordering moronic shit at diners
What the hell is a "plain omelette"? Did he mean just eggs? Why not just order scrambled eggs then? I would have to assume he meant eggs and cheese otherwise, but that's not a "plain" omelette, either way I was a server for a decade and would have told this butthole to go frick himself with his clearly aggravating order.
He's ordering the easiest shit ever why would the waiter get mad about it? He's even willing to pay the full price.
You can't make a waitress do her job, you sexist chud.
the thing about this scene is the restaurant has a set menu/food combinations with no substitutions. it was like him ordering a pepperoni pizza but with sausage instead of pepperoni. or him ordering a cheeseburger with fries but no cheese, add bacon and swap the fries for a side salad.
pretty sure it's just some angy writing over places that are anal about no substitutions
But its a diner not a McDonalds and he was subtracting from the meal, even burger king can take cheese off a hamburger.
The scene is based on a real incident that the writer observed at a restaurant one day. The real funny part is the man throwing the temper tantrum that day was Jack Nicholson. He was offered the role in part to play himself in that scene.
You're thinking the world is constant and do not understand the context of the time. McDonald's revolutionized the restaurant business and lots of casual dining places that weren't fast food tried to imitate the McDonald's assembly line model. Diners with no substitution polices were common at the time the movie came out. The audience could relate to his anger because it was annoying everyone that the world was changing this way. Burger King capitalized on this with their "Have it your way" ad campaign. It sounds dumb now but at the time it was revolutionary that Burger King was willing to let you customize your order. As for diners, they eventually started to wise up after losing business to other places that weren't anal retentive slaves to the operations manual but really, they never fully recovered and diners have never again been as popular as they once were.
Diners aren't as popular because fast food took away too much of their business and they needed to use pricehikes to raise margins and make up the difference, kind of defeating the cheapness that made diners different from nicer restaurants in the first place.
a plain omelette is different than scrambled eggs because it is a single piece that has been folded
it would sound weird to say "give me folded eggs"
Its just the omelette without any fillings, man
Because the local hick probably didn’t know what a French omelette is, so he spelled it out for her so that she wouldn’t screw it up.
>Did he mean just eggs? Why not just order scrambled eggs then?
Because it’s not an omelette? American IQ, wallah.
>insulting the IQ of others
>"wallah"
sometimes i think about what it must feel like for an old actor to look back on his life with an old movie he's been in
Why is this literally the only thing we talk about with this film?
It's low key the only memorable scene in the film, no idea why it's so highly regarded. I mean, it's not a bad film, but it's clearly just a paper thin plot held up by some fantastic acting.
No it's high key. Everyone knows this movie is shit it's not some secret.
film name?
Five Easy Pieces
Saw X
It's a good movie with a good "literally me" character
The scene with Jack Nicholson's character and his father is quite memorable, as are the scenes where plays Chopin's Prelude in E Minor and Fantasy in F Minor.
Because it's a shit film. Another early example of israelites pushing degenerate filth on this country
the morons with room temperature iq who work at these places can't wrap their heads around simple requests. it's like they have a script and if you diverge from it they melt down. i can't tell you the number of times i've ordered a combo at a fast food place and said i didn't want the drink and the subhuman speaking to me acts like i made an impossible request. "sir the combo comes with a drink" "i want the combo, just don't give me the drink" at this point i assume smoke starts coming out of their ears. "but it comes with a drink..." i've literally told one of these morons to pour the fricking drink, hand it to me, and i would hand it back to her and she fricking did it! and the number of times they've tried to ring me up for a burger and fries when i say i don't want the drink even though the combo is cheaper. stupid fricking idiots.
And now you're a grown man who lives with his mom.
Why not just put water as your drink?
why not just NOT give a drink? You are literally doing less
Probably because Black folk do this kind of thing then say 'ay where be my drank, gimme my money back muhfugga das racis'
I'd ask why they don't just let you put the order through and have the drink themselves but I know how fricking anal managers at these places can be.
>You're drinking on shift? What if a customer sees?!
Who fricking cares, you know?
You gotta understand that these people are paid not to think. They're required to act like moronic corporate drones. Fast food workers thinking for themselves and bending the rules is a threat to the assembly line type business model so most managers are incredibly anal about standard procedure.
>Dude, you're supposed to push the buttons with the pictures of food on em.
Someone posted a sign from a Walmart break room that said something to the effect of "Don't think, follow the rules" but for these low skill businesses, that really is how it needs to be. Lots of smart people have to work these jobs when they're young and could improve a thing or two but for each of them there's a thousand mouth breathers who would frick everything up if given latitude to deviate from the process they were trained to follow. The company doesn't need high IQ minimum wage workers. The few they get will eventually end up out the door and if the company sees them again, it will be years later in a white collar role where they'll be permitted to change processes.
>the number of times they've tried to ring me up for a burger and fries when i say i don't want the drink even though the combo is cheaper
oh so youre trying to scam them
Potatoes being the standard with omelette makes no sense, tomatoes are the obvious choice.
Why the frick would I want to bite into a goddamn fruit when I'm eating a hearty, fat, greasy breakfast?
>I'd like a plain Popsicle, not classified as human, meat instead, a correct answer, and smoke youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
>boomer acting like a Black person
many such cases
