Try living here without one lol it's quite difficult and we try for years to get to a point where we can be free of the car

By why not drive home and film it on a table?

Food isnt as hot and fresh. Also while you drive 10 20 minutes to get home your food can have steam build up ruining the fresh food texture.

Which highlights the utter insanity of food delivery services: you're paying $10 to $20 extra to have food that is already shitty and overpriced brought to you in an even worse condition.

Some fast food travels well. Much of it doesn't. I am baffled as to which idiots are ordering some of this garbage.

Can't argue with that. The US pretty much has no cycling infrastructure (and those "can count them on one hand" exceptions don't count)

I've done some bicycle-only stretches in my life. It's funny how literally every person I knew assumed I'd gotten my driver's license suspended for DUIs.
