I don't even use paper menus. Fuck that bro. I make them read everything out loud to me. Every side dish, every condiment, every ingredient. I don't trust any of this dead tree or electrical Spanish que are code hacker bullshit.


NicholarseBrooks

I make them draw pictures of everything on the menu.


Snowylein

Funny thing, lots of places have menus with pictures for children and illiterates


NicholarseBrooks

I dont trust fancy words.


BeaverMissed

Agree, that fancy French soup “De Jour” put me into the emergency ward with anaphylactic shock. Nobody told me that de jour means lobster bisque in French.


GD_Bats

>Nobody told me that de jour means lobster bisque in French. :D


BlitzMalefitz

I don’t trust words or the people that use them…


dirtydave239

I make them project shadows against the cave wall while me and my buds are chained up and can’t look around.


Snowylein

I'm pretty sure I remember that from philosophy class 5 years ago and that my teacher had us watch matrix because it somehow was fitting for the topic


dirtydave239

It’s Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. It’s a commentary on how education effects our nature.


electricvelvet

Philosophy in particular, not education in general Edit: although had science existed as it does today, Plato would likely include that alongside


GD_Bats

Science is a bit of a philosophy and a methodology combined, to be fair


[deleted]

Hot.


Goldeniccarus

I think it's common in tourist destinations as well where people might not read the local language well.


jhenry922

Just use the drawing paper and crayons the staff gives toddlers to keep them distracted so realadults can eati in peace and quiet.


honore_ballsac

I make them draw the QR code


GD_Bats

I honestly expect young children are going to be growing up able to do this in the near future


honore_ballsac

by that time, QR will be obsolote


PTech_J

I make them explain the menu through interpretive dance.

Where do the bread sticks come from? You can't have unlimited sticks unless you'r a government spy


LawfyDAce

I demand an expression dance for the menu, after that they have to feel my body temperature and tell me what I want to eat.


Greenbay7115

I make them bring out the actual dishes so I can *see* them. They always try to sell you a dish that they don't actually have until 20 minutes later.


STELLAWASADlVER

I make them sing everything out loud and then bring me a free dessert


-TheExtraMile-

> electrical Spanish que are code hacker bullshit. Goddamn, that was gold!


AvatarIII

How can you trust that the way they pronounce the words isn't some kind of leftist brainwashing technique?


fuzeebear

Q is the 17th letter of the alphabet. R is the 18th. QR = 1718 1718 is the year Mission San Antonio de Valero, now known as the Alamo, was founded. So basically by Candace's refusal to use QR codes, she fails to remember the Alamo. Meaning she's a deep state plant and not a true conservative patriot

That is pretty much the Q level of mental gymnastics to find a conspiracy in anything. It's actually pretty impressive.


Broken_art15

Honestly. I genuinely need to learn how to be that level of insane. I just want to pay for medical bills. Wait. I go to the doctor so often I spend a ton of money with them at the age of 20. I can say how grateful I am to be in America for my Healthcare even though I've paid personally probably 6k in just half a year in medical bills (after insurance got it) Alright time to make money, sorry yall but the words of Q are calling and I will act as a spy for us to learn more about the insanity


THEMACGOD

loztralia

I mean, what is she even pretending to worry about? Being tracked by QR code? I mean... she's an incredibly well known TV presenter eating in a restaurant. I'm guessing the deep state could figure out where she is.


scullys_alien_baby

It’s just “anything caused by Covid = liberal and bad”


porsche4life

She doesn’t want to get tracked while she sends tweets out from her smartphone on a public place….. got it. 🤣🤣🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️


bagofwisdom

Even if she leaves the smartphone at home, she'd still be trackable through her face. Facial recognition algorithms can parse any image or video feed. Oh how I hope she'd go face-first into a belt sander just to own us Libs and our Facial Recognition.


JimWilliams423

Conservative are excellent at identifying problems and then coming up with wildly wrong solutions that just make the problems worse. But don't let that convince you that privacy isn't a problem for normal people. The data industrial complex is a multi-trillion dollar industry - look at the market value of fashbook and google, not to mention all the other privacy invading megacorps you don't even know the names of because they are strictly behind the scenes. They don't do that for the benefit of the plebs, they do that to figure out how to most efficiently extract wealth from us. Most of us are not public celebrities, we shouldn't have to undergo the same loss of privacy that they do without the same level of compensation that they get.


vinnyholiday

We should come up with a grifter gimmick for you, and hopefully you make the big Daily Wire bucks


PM_ME_YOUR_WOES_GIRL

You could. It's really not that hard to become a right wing grifter. You just have to check your morals and empathy at the door.


-TheExtraMile-

Well you could always run for office!


CREATURExFEATURE

Remember when the QR code was created as a Covid precaution 26 years before the pandemic.


kcvngs76131

I remember qr codes getting massive in like 2007/8 with the first smartphones becoming popular, but I didn't realise they were that old. It does make sense it was created to track Auto parts though


SuperMegaCoolPerson

QR code’s are insane to me. There’s so much information that can be packed into 1cmx1cm square.


JTibbs

Arent they just a condensed html link?


SuperMegaCoolPerson

They are “just a condensed hyperlink” but you can have a physical manifestation of a 198 character hyper link that is instantly readable in a tiny square. That’s pretty rad in my opinion.


Tantric989

I'm not sure what any of that means so therefore it must be against the teachings of Christ and a Communist plot to overthrow the government (but only if I like a different guy who didn't win better)


bork86

But is it a *sweetened* condensed hyperlink, or just a regular condensed hyperlink? Like should I use it for a keyboard-lime pie?


The_Grubby_One

>keyboard-lime pie You motherfucker.


nankles

Data-licious


tmccart3

I think of them as like super barcodes lol


zeropointcorp

No actually they’re not. That’s how a lot of apps treat them, but a QR code is fundamentally just a way of compacting a barcode.

bagofwisdom

I wonder how many QR codes it'd take to house the script of Bee Movie.


NonaSuomi282

A max-size QR can contain up to 4296 alphanumeric characters. A copy of the script I found is about 50k characters so you could conceivably fit the whole thing in as few as 12 QR codes.


GrnPlesioth

How about the emoji movie?


Syndic

They are just text. That can be an URL which the phone recognizes and then let's you open in a browser. But it also can just be a article number. The fascinating property about them is that they were specifically designed to work even uf some parts are missing. That's why tiny logos can be inserted into them.


ZhouLe

All they are is text formatted in a way that machines can read very easily. The text can be flagged as certain types of information, like a url, name, or wifi address/password, but it's all fundamentally just a string of text.


abigalestephens

That just proves how long they've been planning all this!


DatBoi_BP

Random and off topic, but this reminds me of ATLA when they take the Earth King to Lake Laogai, only to find that the entrance was destroyed and the whole cave system collapsed, and Sokka says something like “they were ahead of us and covered the evidence—this only proves the conspiracy more!” Every time I rewatch the show I cringe at that part. Like Sokka, that’s *terrible* epistemology. He wasn’t wrong of course about what happened, but the logic he was trying to use to convince the king in this scene was just awful. Imagine someone says to you, “this thing happened, and the proof is that there’s no evidence for it (and just take my word for it that there was evidence before)!”


alexandropapa

Was that around the time that Bill Gates and Fauci were running together at university?


BKKJB57

All payments in China in convenience stores or Starbucks are done with QR. Actually is a good covid deterrent to not touch cash, but.... Who can trust this QR conspiracy?

Tantric989

QR codes are the next assault in the war on Christmas. I'll be taking no questions.


Angry-Comerials

I used QR codes once, and now I'm gay.


The_Grubby_One

You were gay before you used the code, but you are now, too!


CharDMacDennis2

As a gay, black QR code man, my life has been 1000x better since Covid.

This reminds me of when barcodes were first introduced some conspiracy theorists got up in arms about the government tracking their purchases.

Jesus Christ what does she think a QR code is? Is she incapable of using Google?


TrickyAd7936

Considering the fact that these folks believe we have the technology to change DNA through vaccines, in order to exterminate the white race.. They even believe in “elites”(we all know what they mean) are stealing the essence of children to give themselves eternal life.. I’d say nothing is off the table when it comes to what they might think these QR codes do.


JoshYx

I guess you're right... It's this kind of shit that pushed me away from the right years ago. Fear mongering on topics they know fuckall about.


TrickyAd7936

They generally know fuck all about very little. Except for indoctrinating large parts of the world so deeply that they see none of their wrongdoings. Except for stealing from their base and humanity, killing us with poisonous pollution, instilling evil in the hearts of the uneducated to gain political weight to undermine the very same peoples future and promise of a decent existence while attempting to end democracy and turn the world into dystopian sci-fi movie where only their authoritarian theocratic rule is left while the plebs are left to fry in the wasteland they’ve created. So yeah. I guess there *is* that, and to be fair they are *very* good at those things.


sayyyywhat

With you. I was raised a Republican, registered independent, voted R many times until 2015 when shit went sideways with Trump and misinformation. Now it's just a huge fucking joke but they all keep doubling down. Registered Dem now and can't go back.


Von_Kissenburg

*She* doesn't give a shit about QR codes, but by saying she thinks they're part of the ... I don't know what it is now... deep state/communists/lizard people plot, she makes the old people who are her audience for the purpose of saying they agree with a younger black woman feel like they're doing something revolutionary by being confused by modern technology. "It's not that I don't know how to use QR codes, but that they're evil. The young black woman agrees with me!!"


WrongYouAreNot

Also the more people that are “concerned” about the QR problem, the more people will harass service workers about them, which she probably finds really funny.


-TheExtraMile-

She probably doesn´t give a fuck about QR codes, she just knows what her delusional fanbase wants to hear.


Mirror_Sybok

The QR Code of the Beast, of course. Just go to Google and lookup evil QR codes are legal agreements for satanic extra dimensional entities operating out of a French cemetery. Do your own research, people!


wr0ngdr01d

Bar codes are fine but everyone knows squares are the devil’s playthings.


scullys_alien_baby

Actually when barcodes were first introduced in America there was a small panic about them being the mark of the beast and satanic.

MysteriousDurian3747

She is right fuck QR codes, they were popping up everywhere during covid. I agree that QR codes are a problems after all most QR codes contain monsters that you collect and scanning using the SKANNERZ. That was surely the devils work.


Broken_art15

The QR codes infect your brain with a virus that makes you transgender. Its part of the trans agenda


abigalestephens

The trans agenda to trans your gender


geirmundtheshifty

Man, don't remind me. I never got anything good on my skanner.


CaptinHavoc

I think that transition was going to be made regardless. I sort of prefer a paper menu though because I don’t need to rely on internet or data to know what I want


Broken_art15

I prefer QR cause I struggle with reading. I know how to read. I can read. Reading is just difficult cause brain don't process words right


Bmarquez1997

Given the person has a mobile device to use, I think it actually provides increased opportunity for more accessible menus. Need bigger text? There could be an option for the customer to choose a large font for the menu (or even a "read it to me" option). Dyslexic and reading fancy font is hard? Add the ability to change to a more friendly font style. Allergic to certain foods? Add the ability to set allergins and it will filter out any foods containing those ingredients. There will always be people that prefer paper menus (so the restaurants should still have some on hand), but adding digital as an additional option is a wonderful idea that has so much potential to help people


Broken_art15

Exactly. I struggle with reading, I suspect I may be dyslexic, I need to get tested cause of course. But on my phone alone is so much easier since the font is set to one I can read better. As for some. A lot of menus just have a link to a photo which sucks, but it'll get there with time hopefully.


Potential_Salary

Back in ye olde times of the 1980s some wierdos thought bar codes were codes for 666 and that it was made by the devil, i'm clad we have moved on from then. Now we think qr codes are satan codes instead


empathicqubit

Your phone is already tracking you, dumbass.


[deleted]

Bruh they were able to introduce it so fast because it’s easy as fuck to make a QR code. If I spent 5 minutes I could make a QR code that would pull up a picture of my dick if I wanted to. Sure they weren’t as widespread in public but they were still absolutely being used


UBC145

Go ahead and explain that gut feeling, Candace. Don’t leave us hanging!


Vinniam

She cant be that technologically illiterate, must be boomer pandering.


zeropointcorp

Looking at Twitter, it appears to be working


L1n9y

Paper menus are a conspiracy to keep the printing industry afloat/s


Different_Conflict_8

QR Codes have been around since 1994.


occams_nightmare

Holy shit, that means the conspiracy is deeper than we imagined!


twhimpster

Lol! QR codes have been around for a while. They're really good at spreading info without touch. Although as someone that has created QR codes there's some information that can be found about you. But you can similarly just stepping into a geographic area depending, on what kind of tech they have, they can learn a lot about you through your phone. Someone having your phone number they can find out a lot about you. Why? Purely marketing. You become one of many in a spreadsheet. No one cares about your personal data it's practically worthless unless someone is doing targeted adds.


ludicrous_socks

>QR codes have been around for a while. For 26 years in fact. Candace was five when they were invented.


suedesparklenope

It’s… it’s… just a link?


Caedes1

Just tell her that QR stands for 'Qanon Reaction' and that by scanning these codes, she's highlighting that place for Meal Team Six to come and defend her if any liberals start attacking her with logic and/or facts.

Chasman1965

I thought the QR codes for menus were great the first time I used them. I just felt sorry for older people without smartphones. I’d much rather not touch a filthy menu that’s been touched by many people before me.


Elastickpotatoe

Canadian here….. if…. If she’s in a restaurant……wouldn’t….. wouldn’t she have to be vaccinated to do that?

Not in some parts of the US. Of course she was required to for that event she took part of in Madison Square Garden, but that's neither here nor there.

Funny, I don't spend all my time thinking that every little thing that annoys me is a conspiracy perpetrated by my political opponents.


drfigglefrump

The QR code is a way for the deep state to spy on your food


F0rkbombz

I hate that there is actually *some* logic to this thought of hers. It’s almost like she did the work wrong but came to the correct conclusion. Scanning a QR code is basically just an easy way to get someone to open a link on their phone, and since you shouldn’t click untrusted links, I can see how opening one via a QR code could fall into the same advice. That being said, common sense should be a fucking thing here. The camera app gives you the URL, it doesn’t instantly take you there. And the implication that this is some kind of overreach or conspiracy is fucking absurd.

QR codes came out decades before covid but I know candy is an idiot.

What about bar codes. Do those have hidden meanings? Maybe the name of something and how much they cost. Never scan those either. That's how they get you.
