Few people want to spend the May holidays at the stove. Ready-to-eat meal delivery services come to the rescue — now, in order to have a delicious meal, you just need to download the application. In the context of a pandemic and remote work, many of us have appreciated the benefits of such a service. We collected the funniest statements of Internet users regarding this phenomenon.
“I miss my favorite restaurants, although I’m too lazy to go there, so I whisper under my breath “Great choice!” every time I order food online.”
***
“I love to follow in the application how the courier is carrying food. Fly to me, my savior, my hero!”
***
“Lockdown again, so the only social contacts available to me are meetings with couriers who bring food and products. Ideally!”
***
“The pandemic has made me more aware. I used to say to myself: “I don’t have the strength to cook at all, or even warm up semi-finished products, I’ll order something.” And now: “Let me support the restaurants, they already have a hard time!”
***
“Who was the first to invent contactless delivery? Santa Claus, of course.”
***
“The courier just brought us someone else’s food by mistake (we didn’t order anything ourselves). If you knew what it cost me to redirect him to the right apartment.
***
“Six months ago, we were transferred to a remote location. I want to eat 24/7. The employer can safely transfer the salary directly to the delivery service.”
***
“Before, my wife and I argued which restaurant to go to, now we cannot agree on which delivery service to choose today. P – constancy “
***
“Have you had this: order something and sit and hope that the restaurant will cancel your order, because this serving of food today will be superfluous?”

“My achievements in a few months of remote work: the courier from the delivery service knows me by sight and begins to worry about my health.”
***
“I don’t even look forward to notifications from Tinder as much as messages that my pizza is already being prepared.”
***
“Which is better: let the courier know that I’m having a party, despite the prohibitions, or let him guess that everything ordered is just for me?”
***
“Maybe we can start tipping couriers with toilet paper or cereal? And then I have both of them since last year in bulk.
***
“Supporting cafes by ordering lunch and dinner from them is the kind of charity that I like.”

«Woman:
— So strange, at the beginning of the pandemic, we were saving because we stopped going to restaurants. And now the money has begun to flow somewhere again …
Me, calculating how much I spend monthly on tips to the courier:
“Really weird.”
***
“Does the phrase ‘contactless delivery’ sound sexy to me alone?”
***
“But there is no such service: a person comes and drives me away from the refrigerator?”
***
“I:
— Oh, you have a new haircut? It suits you! I’m so glad to see you again!
Courier:
– And let’s you pay me already, and I’ll go?

“I don’t understand one thing: why do they constantly put plastic devices in my orders? Do they think that I order food from them three times a day, but I never got hold of my own fork?
