At my local Chik-Fil-A the average wait time is about a half hour...and that's with two lanes. It's a nice sandwich but not going to burn through gas for some chicken and waffle fries.

Literally WTF is this thread how does it go from SGC go CFA??? And you’d be crazy to think that faster turnaround times and the market slowing aren’t correlated. Have y’all seen the news lately? Yeah the big dogs may not be affected, but the little to middle fish I’d imagine most certainly are to some degree.

As fully expected, Trent didn't/couldn't give a single logical or sensical argument or any actual facts to prove or support any of the points he was making, nor to disprove anything I or others were saying. As I typically see with posters like that, they completely ignore any questions asked, and in my case often just choose to complain about the lengths of my posts, like that suddenly makes their arguments and points valid by some miracle. Because they don't want to see someone posting so much that they have nothing they can really come back at or refute, they oftentimes just continue touting how they are right, and anyone not agreeing with them is wrong. Brilliant argument, and way to try and prove a point, right?

He still rightly owes apologies to nineunder71 and LoreWalker, but I never asked for, nor would I ever want one. It generally takes a mature person to admit when they were wrong about something. I'll leave it at that.

Hi Bob,

I was looking at some of King Trent's posts and he apparently loves to go off on people out of the blue. He is entertaining but you cannot expect to have a meaningful conversation with him. As far as an apology the King has never had to apologize in his life...this much is very clear.

Take care,
Chase

Hi Chase,

Yes, I know fully well what you're saying, and how true it is. There are various people of similar ilk on this forum who detest someone posting all the different reasons and facts their points or views may not be as accurate and true as they like. As soon as they start complaining, instead of actually answering back with any real facts or logic, it pretty much solidifies they realize they aren't right, so they just deflect and/or keep chanting their "Well I'm right and you're wrong!" mantra, instead of simply admitting they may not have been entirely right or accurate in their thinking to begin with. It always amazes me how some people actually think and believe that if they just keep repeating the same false statements over and over again, that eventually others will believe and agree with them. The inability of so many people to have an open mind and be able to honestly and maturely look at and discuss issues from different sides, is one of the biggest reasons for many of the problems in the world today. Unfortunately, not a lot you and I can really do about it. You take care as well.

Default SGC grading

To Lorewalker and BobC- please accept my humblest apologies for
abandoning this compelling thread. I had to work on an actual card deal (!)
and, well, sleep...

It was cute reading your mutual admiration messages, very tender indeed.
Just a few little points, however, to snap you out of it:

1) I do NOT like to "go off" on people randomly. My posts contained no
threats or vulgarities. When someone makes a remark that is wrong-
like nineunder ascribing SGCs relative turnaround times to less demand
despite a consistent history of faster times- I point it out. My initial reply
was quite tame and didn't ruffle nine's feathers (as I recall, anyway).

2) It was then that lorewalker tried to put words in my mouth, and called
me "silly". Whoops, wrong turn... so I let him have it. He didn't even
have a dog in the fight. (I know, these darns facts are so annoying).

3) Then BobC came in with a Socratic dialogue laced with passive
aggression. Dear God, I hope you've never been called upon to give a
toast at a wedding. He missed the boat too, but you keeping doing you,
BobC!

4) To those who believe this thread was about Chick Fil A... can't help you.

Good Lord...

Trent King
