"You're either normal or you study the menu…

Many people want to study a restaurant’s menu online, so when they get to a restaurant they know what they want and can order quickly.

“am i the only one that needs to study the menu before going to a restaurant so i can order within a socially acceptable timeframe” was posted on X/Twitter by matt (🎣) on July 15, 2022. “Do you also look at the menu of the restaurant you’re going to for dinner at 11:00 am to figure out what you are going to eat in 8 hours or are you normal?” was posted on Facebook by CoupleThing on April 6, 2024. “You’re either normal or you study the menu before going to a restaurant” was posted on X/Twitter by Stefan Urquelle on July 5, 2025, and this received over 6,000 likes.

“I used to be cool. Now I like to research menus and the parking situation before I go somewhere new” is a related saying.

I’m neurotypical I just also have to study the menu before going to a restaurant and ordering in person so that the server doesn’t think I’m an idiot for taking too long with the menu

Do you also look at the menu of the restaurant you’re going to for dinner at 11:00 am to figure out what you are going to eat in 8 hours or are you normal?

Something weird about me is I like to study the menu before going to a restaurant. I know exactly what I want when I get there.
