    Me to all restaurants, stores, basically anybody : I’m not installing your fucking app.

    Edit: I realize I’m abnormal and most people are fine with it, but I’m not okay with it and I won’t do it

      It’s a remarkable entitlement.

      Let’s say I’ve never dealt with your restaurant before. Why would I start my relationship with you by installing your lowest-bid spyware on my personal device? You have yet to even convince me I’ll ever want a Quesachalupa Wrap Crunch Bellgrande (the same as “taco, add tomatoes”, but $3.72 more) again.

        We were driving somewhere and suddenly decided to order some chicken on the way home (figured it would be done when we got there and we wouldn’t have to wait).

        They required an app: my wife downloaded it, set up an account, picked the store that was on the way home (but not closest to where we were) and put the order into the app, only to have it fail sending it to the location.

        Several times.

        By the third try we were in the parking lot and I just went in and ordered.
