The hardest part isn’t going out.
It’s deciding where to go.
Stop wondering what to do. Skip the 40-minute group chat deadlock.
Endless group chat back-and-forth
“Where do you guys want to go?” “I don’t mind, you choose.” Forty minutes of scrolling maps while everyone gets hangry and uninspired.
Defaulting to the same old spot (again)
You end up at the exact same strip-mall chain restaurant because no one had the energy to hunt down somewhere fresh, lively, and lekker.
