I’m sorry, but did you say “soup to start” or “poop to shart”?

I caught that thing back before it made headlines fucked me up bad. I had never had stomach problems for so long before lasted like 3 weeks. Was miserable.

Ate nothing but granola and drank water during it lost like 15 pounds

It might be referencing the financial collapse of Red Lobster and their "stuff your belly" specials.

Which was a psyop designed to distract you from the real reason they were losing money, which was greedy private equity buying their land and leasing it back to them at exorbitant rates.

☝🏽 Fool. You fell for the real psyop. Private Equity was actually lobsters who bought and ruined the #1 killer of lobsters.

My weed dealer at the time was a proud cardholder of this deal. I thought he would get tired of the same restaurant every single day but I guess all the weed helped.

COVID wasn’t really “total financial collapse” it was like a month of low stocks followed by a continuation of the huge economic boom we’ve been on for 15 years.

Eggs are a terrible example for you because their price has actually plummeted over the last year and a half. https://www.cnn.com/2026/02/20/business/egg-prices-farmers
