Nope. Not rare at all.

You must not eat out much. Searching for restaurants would be such a pain in the a$$ without it.

When I want to eat out late, I can pull up all of the restaurants that are still open. That way I don't have to go pull up their websites one at a time to check their hours.

Plus I can look at pictures of the restaurants to see if it's the kind of place that I want to go to.

Whether I eat out or not has nothing to do with the fact that i dont know anyone who uses that website/service

But when i do go out to eat, and i have never been to the place, i just use Google Now( i have a Moto X)

Also, how did you search of Restaurants before Yelp ?????

It was originally upload by Frank Correiro who works at the car lot. Frank later claimed it had been stolen, but that's obviously a lie as it was on his personal account and posted directly from within his cam's software.

It's fairly obvious that it was Frank himself, and that he was performing a CYO move.

So, he thought it was funny, others tended to disagree.

Sad thing is, the owner stepping forward and taking responsibility could have alleviated the escalation. Instead, they tried to excuse themselves and lie. This just acerbated the situation. The internet has a short attention span, they kept bringing negative attention back to themselves.

They acted like classless jerks and got what they deserved with the negative backlash. Not sure what more there is to the story than that.

Wouldn't it be awesome if we could find a way to connect people to some sort of interconnected network with search engines that could help them find that sort of stuff out?

Haaar! Used car salespeople not seeing the oxymoronic contradiction in talking down to a Pizza delivery guy. Like they actually believed they held the class distinction high ground in that little exchange. Cripes!

Catch the act of the clown with the raggedy azz, bridge-troll hair cut being condescending to the Pizza guy asking a perfectly logical question. The actions of the girl with the 'Annie Hall' hat speak for themselves.

We're all supposed to believe a used car staff didn't count the money they'd collected to pay for the pizza before handing it over to the delivery guy? Riiigggghhhht....LOL.
