Yay, RJ!  Congrats to you, your daughter and the lucky guy!

(Being a man that serves high level food for people, how are you at weddings?  Is it easy for you to relax at those or are you like "Fold the napkins right!  Serve from the right, you moron!!  These fingerlings are COLD!"  HAHAHAHAHAHA).

As I faced a barrage of negative comments on an online forum, urging me to leave, my spirits were at an all-time low. Disheartened and seeking solace, I decided to take a break and grab a quick bite to eat. Little did I know that this unplanned stop at the golden arches would lead to an experience that transcended the realm of a mere meal.

The familiar scent of the salty sea drifted from the perfectly fried fish fillet. Taking the first bite, the crispy coating gave way to the tender fish inside, and an unexpected burst of flavor flooded my senses. It was as if a symphony of taste was playing on my palate – a taste that seemed like it was crafted in the heavens themselves.

Despite the chaos and negativity encircling me, the exquisite harmony of flavors in that fish filet managed to lift my spirits. With each bite, it was as if a ray of hope and comfort was infused into my being. It wasn't just the savory delight of the food; it was the unexpected joy it brought amidst a turbulent time.

The world, at that moment, seemed to fade away, and there was nothing but me and that divine fish filet. The blend of textures, the perfect balance of seasoning, and the simplicity of the meal worked wonders on my disposition.

And in that small sanctuary of a fast-food booth, I found respite and an escape from the shitstorm brewing in the digital world. The siren call of that fish filet drowned out the harsh voices of the forum, even if just for a short while.

Sometimes, it's the simple, everyday moments that have the power to transform our day. In the unlikeliest of places and in the most ordinary of meals, we can find a slice of peace and delight.

So, with gratitude to the unexpected joy found in a McDonald's Fish Filet, I left the restaurant with a lighter heart and a restored sense of resilience. As I walked away, I couldn't help but feel that maybe, just maybe, that little piece of culinary heaven was a gentle reminder that brighter days can emerge from the darkest moments.

Tl;dr:  He had a Filet-o-Fish.  It was really good.  It changed his whole outlook on life.

I've never had an FOF, and nothing I've ever had from McDonald's has ever affected me in such a positive way, but...glad you enjoyed your sandwich.   :)

As the juicy, sizzling steak was brought to the table, the aroma filled the air, tantalizing my senses. I could feel my mouth water and my stomach grumble with anticipation. The steak was perfectly cooked, with a crisp sear on the outside and a tender, pink interior.

As I took my first bite, the flavors exploded in my mouth. The savory, rich taste of the beef melded with the smoky char from the grill, and a hint of sweetness from the glaze. The tenderness of the meat was unparalleled, each bite melting in my mouth like butter.

I savored every bite, enjoying the experience of dining in a Denver restaurant that had come highly recommended. The ambiance was perfect - warm lighting, comfortable seating, and attentive service. But the real star of the show was the steak.

As I continued to eat, I couldn't help but think about how this meal was more than just food. It was an epic experience, a celebration of everything that makes Denver such a unique and wonderful place to visit. The steak was a perfect representation of the city - bold, flavorful, and unforgettable.

As I finished the last bite of the steak, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the experience. It was more than just a meal - it was a memory that would stay with me forever. I left the restaurant feeling satisfied, happy, and eager to explore more of what Denver had to offer.

It is something akin to being joyful over finding out cat food is edible.

Well I wouldn't go that far. There's generally less head scratching when reading a ChatGPT.
