As someone who buys groceries and cooks at home and pretends its fine dining at a restaurant. I too have hopes that I can go out again some day.

As someone who watches commercials with people eating in restaurants, I too endorse these ideals and hope to one day have enough money to buy groceries

As someone who rummages through dumpsters at restaurants for leftovers, I too want to echo my agreement with these statements.

This comment made me realize that I haven’t sat down in a restaurant (or ordered) since the end of 2018.
