8 Steps Of Deciding Where To Eat As Told By "The Office"
Reddit

We've all been there. We're hungry, we want to go out to eat, but where do we go? Don't ask me! If you are anything like I am, the questions of where to eat (and often many other decision-making questions) are often met with, "Wherever you want!" or "I don't care!" Don't feel bad, we are the indecisive wonders of the world and it takes all kinds to make the world go around! So without further ado:

1. The clock is ticking. . .

When lunch time starts getting close, you start creating diversions. If they aren't paying attention to their stomachs, they won't ask you where to eat... right?

2. "What do you want for lunch?"

The procrastination didn't work and here comes the inevitable question, your reaction:

The internal mental breakdown has begun and you are at a loss for words so your only reaction is to frantically look around at your friends and hope that they realize that this IS NOT your decision to make.

3. "Just pick already!"

Your friends are impatient but why don't they just make the decision?! Really, you know they are just asking because they too do not like making decisions. You should really learn to ask them before they can ask you.

4. You try to distract them. . .

Your last minute tries at distracting your friends consist of throwing out random phrases. "Hey look! A squirrel!" Didn't work, huh? It was worth a try at least.

5. Your friends make a suggestion...

When your friends finally give in and attempt to offer their own suggestions, you suddenly know exactly what it is that you do not want. They say okay and often offer more...

6. And another. . .

At this point, you have heard their suggestions and decided that they do, in fact, have the worst possible taste in food. "But you had that for lunch last week!" they say, "Yes, but I have decided that that was a bad decision, I do not know what I was thinking."

7. They ask you to decide again.

Your friends have stopped trying to offer their suggestions and turn the decision toward you again. To which you respond with more nervous chatter and a guarantee that you will not be able to make this decision.

8. After a long silence and much self-reflection. . .

After you've all sat in silence long enough you give and offer up your one and only suggestion that you will ever give. "How about ice cream?"

Deciding where to eat is no easy task. It's safe to say that if you're ever with me at lunch time, just tell me where we're eating and don't listen to me if I complain. I can usually find something on the menu that I want to eat. . . I mean ice cream always works too!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
