Genetic Oil? Isn’t that what made all the mutant hybrids in the 90’s Spider-Man cartoon?

Thanks for the afternoon giggle!

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
Hadnt seen that one before

I’m not sure if this counts as a typo or… something else. Either way, should I ever walk into an establishment and am handed a menu anything like this, I would be tempted not only to immediately leave, but possibly burn the entire operation to the ground.

Best comment from the Reddit thread: At least it’s not a QR code.

Yeah, i would genuinely struggle to sit still.

I’m the one savage enough to ask if they have an English menu.

They are clearly targeting a market segment of which I am not a part: I speak, read, and write English.

Being ‘creative’ with spelling, i.e. in this case in a phonetic way requires knowing spelling pretty well, I would say :woman_shrugging:

That said, def not the demographic for this either, but I’m not huge on bar food, regardless of how it’s spelled.

Does “cutesy” spelling / intentional misspelling / making up words for things that have words irk you here on HO or is the concentration of them on the menu?

I am not against the occasional “ACK-shully” or “totes adorbs” for a little liguistic color, but I will confess that an entire conversation of “y u so :frowning: , fr, fr” will immediately make me assume the other person has a mental age of 12.

A whole damned menu written like some combination of baby talk and LOLCAT speak from 2004 feels like an open act of hostility towards your customers.

Oh, I’m right there with you, I was just curious if you notice it here too or it was the concentration on the menu that triggered the reaction :joy:

That’s not what you were getting at and you know it.

Really? What is it you think I was getting at?

“was just curious if you notice it here too “

That. Not nice.
