Am I being overly judgey?

NEST YOU ARE TOO SLOW TO LIVE.

Apparently there's some thing with foursquare and reviewing restaurant meals you have. I think. Anyway, one girl on my FB does it and all she does is review Bob Evans. Every goddamned post is about Bob Evans. We don't have them here, but I judge because in my mind, it's along the lines of Denny's. Is that accurate?

    I'm judging your mom's vagina right now. After I checked into it.

  • I'd say that's an accurate description.  Maybe a little cleaner than Denny's but it's the same type of fare.

    Gross.

  • Wtf is foursquare? Bob Evans is crap.

  • i love Denny's for bringing Moons over My Hammy into my life
  • Okay, so I'm justified in side-eyeing her "Just had a fabulous dinner at Bob Evans! The new stuffed zucchini is divine!" reports?

    I love me some ihop sometimes, but I don't go running to the internets to give a play-by-play of my rooty tooty fresh and fruity.

    Me too.  And then I found out my husband does it.  I'm pretty sure we're going to have to have counseling.

    I've never been to Bob Evans, but I think it is pretty much just like a Denny's.  So judge away.

  • I judge foursquare too.  I don't get the need to broadcast all the ordinary things you do.  It's one thing if you're at a four star restaurant in Paris, another thing if you're just at the Safeway.
  • I immediately hid FourSquare from my feed the second I saw a friend use it.  I do not give a flying fart about it, and I don't even know what it is.  That's just how little I care.

  • I'm studiously taking notes on everyone's eating and grocery shopping habits, so I'll know when to rob them blind. That'll teach them to use foursquare.

  • The extent of my understanding of Four Square is the game we played during recess in elementary school. 

    I miss recess.

  • I tried to go to Wikipedia to learn what Foursquare is and now I'm just confused.  Badges?  Mayors?
    image
  • I do not think you're overly judgey about that and I'd probably be the same way.  Foursquare annoys the hell out of me, particularly when I see someone checking in "at home".  No.One.Cares. 

    I also hate seeing the same status posted from 3 different accounts the person has (personal, business).  Stop clogging my feed with your stupid "Want me to send you a free trial of the coffee I'm selling for my new pyramid scheme career".

  • the basic cponcept of foursquare or any of those things is that you check in to whereever you are and win prizes maybe.

     

    I have a friend on FB who did fourquare all the way down from Dallas to Houston. She would check in on the highway over and over again, just in different spots. She also twittered it and used twitpic.

    I keep her on my feed just to see if she actually turns into a robot.

    like a hotel?

    snooooooort.

    I don't know what foursquare is, but I recently played this game called drive all thegoddamnway across the country and back, and a couple of times we ate at bob evans, and I had yummy breakfast foods, but it doesn't seem like the kind of place you'd....review...

    like. yeah. it's kind of like denny's but with a banjo, deer na na neer neer feel?

    they have almost no option for those with a diet free of meat. (hence the breakfast choice i made.)

  • I read an article recently about how social media like Twitter and Facebook turn your thoughts into performance.  I enjoy Facebook, and post quite a bit, but I can't imagine interrupting a vacation to constantly "check-in" for the masses.

  • I don't have a foursquare account, but I do have gowalla which I only seem to use when I'm slightly/highly inebriated. And I don't have it update to my FB, just twitter.

    Anyway, my point. Some local businesses I know will give free stuff to the "mayor" of the place on foursquare, who is the person who checks in the most. So, you may get a free cookie with your coffee if you're the mayor of XYZ Coffee. Chili's also offer free chips and salsa if you check in there. BUT, you can check in wherever without publishing it to your feeds to get the discounts.

  • I wish I could eat biscuits and sausage gravy without vomiting.
