I swear I don't how people process data at times. I was just going through yelp and and gave some reviews of a couple of restaurants and just reading other reviews and I'll see one or two stars yet the reviewer seems to list far far more positive traits than negative, I'm like, if you've got a bunch of stuff you can say good about a place why give it 1or 2 stars, it would seem like 3 stars would be more appropriate. I really try and be fair when reviewing a restaurant because it impacts their business, to a degree at least. If I got something really positive I'll post it, I'm not sure why I read so many reviews where a place sounds pretty decent in the review and I look and the reviewer gave it 2 stars. Same goes with Netflix, I read something and they'll talk about a ton of good things about a film and yet give it 2 stars... LOL.... You really need to express the reasons for a negative rating if you're giving a bad rating.
LOL... sometimes people just cornfuse the heck out of me, I swear.
I always take negative reviews "with a grain of salt". There are SO many people that will give a bad review.
I worked at a car dealership and have seen people get mad because they were made to take responsibility for their actions (like signing for the cost of work, but not liking the bill when it's handed to them; or not liking the idea that they have to have SOME score on their credit to even entertain the thought of buying a $40K car).
So when I read bad reviews, I wonder what the complainer did to make the experience so bad.

I always assume a negative experience will more likely generate a review than a positive one.
Then when I see a negative, I look at a couple of other of their reviews to see if there is a pattern. As in a 4-5 start restaurant becomes a 1 star because they didn't like the restroom or whatever.
Been out drinking since midday ( 17:00 now ) .... And the night is young .....
Have a great night all
Are we gonna see some hammered inspired posts later today??? LOL
I whipped up some chili yesterday for dinner and man, It's a BIG OL' pot of that stuff, by the time we get this mother finished I think I'm gonna end up hating chili. LOL. We had it for dinner last night, just made a bowl and there's still enough left over to choke a donkey.
It actually came out pretty good, I've taken to sorta just winging it and not following a recipe, course it's only chili, not rocket science, but yeah, came out tasty. I think I was bragging here about my chili a little while ago, I can't remember half the stuff I post cause I don't have that super woman memory power that the ladies appear to have.
What irritates me is when people on Netflix give a movie a 1-star rating because there was some physical problem with the disk. Just report it and get a new one; don't rate the content of the movie by your customer service complaint.

Freeze it. Then some day in a couple of weeks when you don"t feel like cooking it"ll be there waiting for you.

Yeah, true, we've done some of that in the past, probably need to start doing it more.
