your other post is even stupider because it somehow lacks basic reading comprehension even more, which I didn't even think possible, but there you are: making really stupid posts

Usually any of the restaurants near where I work. There was a Jamaican place, and Ethiopian place, a diner, 2 Tim Hortons, a Thi place, a Moe's, and a place that served prime rib sandwiches. ALL of them gone.

Now if I want to get take-out my choices are basically burgers, sandwiches, hoagies, mexican and pizza.

I have to agree with Helly. I mean, it's almost universally known here that poll questions are generally the same as the topic title, and the "poll question" option is usually just filler.

Yes, both TradeIt and Edward McKays closed at nearly the same time. They were in the same general area too, so it felt kinda weird.

From what I read a while back on why so many Quiznos were closing down, the franchise owners were forced to buy their supplies from HQ, so they weren't able to shop around to make themselves more competitive.

One of these:
Mangia Pizza- Their pizza was super greasy, but delicious and they always gave out free breadsticks.
Battlefield Knoxville - Laser Tag: You had a limited number of lives and ammo. There were several objective type games which made it way better than the other laser tag place in the area.

I don't count that as a store but yeah, there are a LOT of fast food places and/or restaurants whose closures really bug me. I don't even have a Pizza Hut any more... although maybe that's for the best since -- due to timing flukes -- I only seemed to eat there around after terrorist attacks and mass shootings. Or maybe I just mostly remember those visits because of the significance of the other events.

Oh shit, forgot about that one. I loved that place, despite overpricing on everything.

I had a Blimpy's in my area which I think was defeated by the health inspector. I was lunching there the day a letter arrived, which was also the day they had the front door open because the AC had recently broke (a health code violation) and one of the refrigeration units had broken, partly spoiling some of the meats. I later got sick, which may or may not have been related.

The only Quiznos which was near me just had a bad location which, when coupled with its pricing, was probably why it didn't last although I'm not sure how long it was around. That particular retail unit has had a lot of turnover.

they had a local game store close a few days ago, they stayed in business for a time.
on the last day they had 50% off prices on video games.

though when i looked at the selection it was pretty much every game i have ever bought or gotten off PSN.

You should have bought a few and resold them.
