red robin

  • Family in Red Robin.
  • Mom: Why are there so many fat white people in here? What is this place?
  • Me: It's an American burger place.
  • Mom: Americans. They eat too much. In-in-Out's burger is perfect, nothing bigger.
  • Me: ok. Let's share the burgers then, so it'll be the same size as the In-n-out burger.
  • .....15 minutes and a few conversations later...mom has devoured her whole half of the Burning Love burger...and 2 bites from finishing my dad's half of his burger as well.
  • Dad: who's the burger devouring American now?
  • Mom: :::grinning sheepishly::: Damn fried onions.
