Carbrain culture is sitting in your car for 20 minutes instead of getting out and just walking into the restaurant.

I remember this picture. It was from the opening of some mediocre but popular burger chain. They had the doors closed and it was drive through only that day if I'm recalling it correctly.
Um...you can literally see the Starbucks logo on the side of the building.
There is a very similar picture to this of some burger joint opening up but fine now that I wasted my time looking its a starbucks.
As others have pointed out, this is a Starbucks, but take a look at this photo I took a couple months ago. It was a line for an In-N-Out burger that was not even new, but it was the longest drive-through line I've ever seen. It was like ~500 feet long and split off into four separate lanes that all filtered into two main lanes that they actually took your order at. I was across the street getting Chipotle and I spent about 15 minutes inside watching this line and all of these cars only move forward by about one car length. I guesstimate that these people are gonna be waiting in line for two plus hours and that fucking blows my mind.
And the fuckers were spilling into the main road blocking traffic.
No that isn't the picture I'm talking about. What I really love about this is I don't care enough to go find the drone shot I was talking about and the rage I'm seeing about this is childish.
Chill bro, I was just talking to you and giving you a personal example of my own.
