Question for y'all. I am eating at a local Greek restaurant. A man walks in and loudly goes on an anti-liberal rant to his friend on the other side of the dining room. I decide to express my lack of appreciation for having my meal interrupted. Now that I've left I'm not sure I made the right decision. Shou... social.lol
