I went out to eat at a SoCal restaurant with a friend who looks nothing like me. When we were trying to put the name on the waitlist, the host asked us this question. "We just need you to confirm you guys are in the same household." The friend and I looked at each other and just said "yea". The host didn't ask any further questions and proceeded to put the name down on the waitlist. The host didn't really care, it was basically just a formality. They knew it was bullshit. We knew it was bullshit. Yet neither of the party went on to call bullshit on each other out of convenience. The world has gotten so fake it's sickening.
