Chain restaurants?? We cook at home. Occasionally hit up our local pub in our cultural wasteland suburb.
People with kids and responsibilities have different concerns from those who don't. Whether what I ate or what entertainment I consume are fashionable enough doesn't even hit the radar -- I'm happy if I can eat anything in peace or get any downtime whatsoever for entertainment. You'll be there one day.
- ikeyany 9y agoCulture doesn't mean being fashionable or trendy. I think you have a mistaken view of what culture means.
- jbooth 9y agoI get where you're coming from but you don't seem to get that other people have different priorities. The set of people living in the burbs with families are generally living for their kids first and themselves a distant second. Consuming more interesting culture is great and all but it's still just consumption. Even if you're producing art or music, that's something for people with a lot of time for it unless they're doing it professionally. (and lots of great music has been created by bored suburban kids, FWIW).
