closed?!?? Options

[*paperplane*]

The other night I went to a show downtown, and between bands my friend and I got thirsty so we decided to walk down the street a bit to this coffee shop to get something to drink. I went there all the time last year, so I went to open the door and was completely stunned when some guy asked for my ID. Apparently over the summer the place had been bought out and turned into a bar. What the hell??? There's already 50,000 other bars around, that was the absolute last thing we needed. But anyway, I'm really pissed because the place used to be convenient, open late, and pleasantly isolated from the rest of the craziness that goes on down there.

what store/restaurant/etc closings have upset you?

McDonald's , but then I realized that they have like a billion stores, so I can just go to another one .

That reminds me... there used to be a McDonald's on 23rd near 1st Ave (in NYC). When they closed it, I was mad like a motherf**ker, cuz the closest one to that is on 28th and Park, so five blocks uptown and about four crosstown. That's a long ass walk.

But McDonald's in New York deliver for some strange reason, a phenomenon I never got to experience myself.

OH! Another thing that "closed": I became vegetarian last year, right, and I knew from going with a vegetarian friend that McDonald's in New York served veggie burgers. Right? WRONG. I went this past semester because I was drunk-ish and McDonald's was close and they don't carry it anymore! That's almost more infuriating than when a location closes, when they inexplicably stop carrying a certain food that you enjoy.
