#### it, I'm getting pancakes. Not that six bucks is good, but we don't need to double up for a lie.

They said they pay $12 to have them delivered and you just linked $11.94…

I took at as a 12 dollar fee on top of the pancake order. If I'm wrong I do apologize to Cliff, you and your sassy little ellipsis.

People who struggle with the concept that convenience has value when applied to food delivery would probably faint once they found out that people buy popcorn, fountain pop, and candy at movie theatres.

I have those things delivered so I can bring it with me to the theatre and can avoid the concession line.

I know you’re joking but I can’t lie here, having movie theatre popcorn and fountain pop delivered and just watching a movie at home is kind of great.

When I'm ordering food for delivery my mental calculation is, "would I pay a friend $5 to go get that for for me right now?" If that answer is yes, I hit proceed. It's not always a yes.

People actually skip movie theatre popcorn to their homes as well.

Edit: beaten by Pepsi.

Ya, definitely joking. I’d never step foot in a movie theatre.

You guys definitely give more thought to it than I do.

For me it's as simple as

'Do I want X item?' Yes

'Do I accept the extra $5 to not have to go get it?' Sure

'Will it be a blob of #### if it takes 40 minutes to get here?' No. Alright, giv'r

I do find how some people are wired into having to snack because they’re at movie or sporting event kind of interesting.

Anyway, I don’t think anyone is struggling with the concept that convenience has value - what’s weird is what people are paying to have delivered to them. Is having a pancake delivered convenient? Yes. Does it give you pause to think, “what the heck?” Also yes. A human weighed all of their options and chose pancake delivery.
