    Lmfao Applebee’s isn’t classy at all, it’s like a step above Denny’s. Nobody with money is like ‘you know what I want tonight? some shitty microwaved food in a 90s setting where the service is meh and the cost is 3x what it’s actually worth’. People who think it’s high-class, are not actually high-income. Maybe to the social media influences, not people with real jobs.

    Or has the joint turned itself around massively in the last decade?

      People who think it’s high-class, are not actually high-income.

      Trump likes his steak well done with ketchup and his bathrooms gold plated.

      Zuckerberg pays hundreds for crappy grey t-shirts.

      The richest man in the world is a twat.

      Wealth, class, and discernment are not synonymous.

      Cunts are still running the world.

      Maybe they mean high income in comparison to the world? Like the top 10% of wage earners globally starts at just above $100,000 and that isn’t caviar and cristal money.

      Bullshit you can get pancakes at Denny’s. Applebee’s is a step above 711 since someone else microwaves the tv dinner for you.

      My wife and I are high income but we used to be very poor. To this day Chili’s is a “go to” date night joint.

      The hundred millionaire CEO of the corporation I work goes to Applebee’s. Yes really. My boss swears when they went once the guy took out a coupon.

      Applebees is for boomers. Your 60 year olds are eating there because they want to. Anyone under 40 doesn’t actually want to be there.

        originally, Applebees was for millennial college and high school students going out to for a place to get cheap apetizers and hang out together.

        then the boomers started invading.
