Poor skills at All-You-Can-Eat Buffets can be hazardous to your health

So yesterday, Father's Day, my family decided it would be a great idea to go to a buffet (in Scarborough, Super Buffet, on Markham Road) for dinner. We did not have reservations, so once we stepped in the door, there appeared to be close to 30 people, mostly filipino, waiting to be seated.

Surprisingly, we were seated in 15 minutes from arriving, but were told that we had only 1.5 hours to eat. This isn't really a problem, because we usually eat pretty quickly.

The problem was, there were so many people in the buffet, that the traffic in the buffet area was ridiculous. The restaurant serves lobster and oysters at dinner time, so the majority of people wait in line for these delicious items, holding out their plates hoping to get randomly served ahead of other people in line. If you are Chinese, you'll get good pieces in the middle of the line. Any other race, however, and you'll get your lobster/oyster when you reach the front of the line, but you'll get a shitty piece, like, the head of the lobster, or the smallest oyster in the serving container. I didn't even bother to get in line, but my loving mother gave me some. Thanks, mama. =]

Another problem that arises, is bumping into people, rather, people bumping into you. When you're walking around the buffet tables, you're looking at all the food. You see something further away, so you start walking towards it, and then something else catches your eye! You keep walking towards your first choice, but your eyes stay on the random surprise you spotted. So you walk into someone that was standing in front of you, that person being one Warren De La Cruz. KEEP YOUR FUCKING EYES IN FRONT OF YOU. If I get sweet and sour sauce on my white t-shirt, I will gouge your eyes out with chopsticks, I swear to you. Thankfully for the human race, I have never been stained by other people's food. One day though, someone will make a mistake, and there will be absolute carnage. :]
