The company I was working for last year treated all of the employees to lunch at a Chinese buffet during the Christmas season. You know you are at a bad buffet when not only do you not go back for a second plate but you don’t even finish the first. Things must have been tough because two days later we were told that the company had lost its contract and everyone was being laid off. Quite the Merry Christmas!
I used to know 2 brothers – they were large, but not fat, gentlemen – whose hobby was going to all-you-can-eat places & eating until they were asked to leave……
I went through that hollow leg phase as a teenager. Later I was still trying to take all-you-can-eat restaurants for all that I could, and paying the price. What a drag it is to be old.
Dude sounds burnt out. Take a break, maybe some herbal tea…Go to your happy place, Take a deep breath and sigh….Force yourself to smile, just to see if the muscles still work. You’ll be surprised how good it feels…

Usually when a conventional restaurant suddenly starts to serve as a buffet, it’s a sign that the end of the restaurant as a business is near.

I just ate at a local Time Machine restaurant. After the first course, I went back four seconds.

Can’t remember which comedian said it:
“Went to the casino last week and lost $4,000
but I made up for it at the buffet.”

All you can eat, for a $1.99, but one dollar’s worth was all I can stand. Sometimes, sometimes bad is bad.
