I know how snotty this sounds, but Im tired of taking my wife out for a nice meal at a fine-dining establishment, where we both get dressed up and make an event out of it, and there are guys in there wearing shorts, tee-shirts, flip-flops, and backwards baseball caps (worn indoors and right there at the table, as if they had never received even the most basic lessons in good manners and hat-wearing etiquette).
I like to think of myself as a very egalitarian person. But if you can afford to eat at a nice restaurant, you can afford to dress for the occasion. Not to mention, dudebro, nobody wants to see your hairy, ugly talons when theyre trying to enjoy a nice meal.
Restaurants should bring back dress codes. And if alphabro doesnt like it, he can eat somewhere else.
