Is anybody else frustrated with the Denver food scene?

Fuck, where do I even start? Portion sizes are a joke. Cost is through the roof. Then you got general fuck ups constantly! I don't go out a ton because of the cost. I usually order to go or delivered. I'm constantly met with wrong orders! Like, I place perfectly reasonable orders not asking for anything special or outside of the parameters of their menu only to get the completely wrong thing or no item at all!

I have worked in the service industry as a line cook, server, and bartender. I know the industry. I'm baffled as to why so many of my BASIC orders are not being fulfilled!

So, one example so you don't think I'm just some crazy person expecting something special. I ordered take out this weekend. It's pretty uncommon for me to do that but I was feeling like I wanted to blow some cash.... I rarely go out or order takeout and the amount of times the order is wrong is insane!

Order: Buffalo Wild Wings. Walked in. Sat at the bar. Ordered a tall beer. Ordered to go (all on menu, nothing picky): 30 wings, all flats, half traditional buffalo and the other dry rubbed lemon pepper.... I finished my beer, pay 20% tip, and took my food home. Found half original buffalo and half something called "Asian Zing".. Not even a dry rub.. Over the last few years of me living here, this is my average experience ordering food from local places or corporate chains in Denver.

Anyway, I have lived in Denver for about 3 years and this is my typical dining experience overall. Like, what the fuck? Are Denver folks not capable of completing basic tasks errrr.....?

How hackers got Denver crosswalks to hate on Trump

But how do you hack a walk signal? City officials said they fell victim to a common mistake: Failing to change the default password.

“These crosswalk push-buttons were newly installed,” explained public works spokesperson Nancy Kuhn in a statement to Denverite and other media.

The devices were “still bagged and with their factory settings,” including a default password “that we now have learned is easy to find online.” The push-buttons weren’t meant to be turned on yet, but had recently been connected to power.
