Things that tick me off: Sliders

This one will give you insight into how warped I truly am.

When did every restaurant in the country decide to sell these things? (if you are unaware, they are mini-burgers, like at Krystal and White Castle). I first became aware of these things at Cheeseburger in Paradise about a year ago. Now they are available at such establishments as: Jock's-n-Jill's, Chili's, Ruby Tuesday, TGI Friday's, and Applebees.

If I wanted mini-food, I'd just go to Krystal (no White Castle's around) and be done with it. I find it absurd that people prefer their food in mini form (it's not like they're actually eating less since you get like 4 of them in an order).

I don't have a reason these things tick me off, other than the fact that all these chain places found out about them and added them to their menu at the same time. Like Krystal is new or something.

Also, why's it called a "slider"?
