I recently went out to lunch with a friend who asked several questions about a burger before ordering it, including one that sent our server back to the kitchen for an answer. Her logic was that if she was going to splurge, it ought to be worth it. I think that's reasonable and it appeared that the server did, too.
Can making socially conscious decisions lead one to harbour a certain level of disdain or frustration towards others who do not? Unfortunately, yes. Are these same individuals more likely to be of the more "high-maintenance" personality? Most certainly. Is this even a remote justification for not making socially conscious decisions? Absolutely not.
that ep. of Portlandia was FUNNY!
Mr. K's is organic, right??
