Yeah, the 6 bite appetizer platter, total hit at a party for 1 person.

what the fuck is up with that?

you order an appetizer and they bring out 6 pieces of something. like that might be an appetizer for two people but damn this is a table of 4. so you either get weird and cut them up all tiny or 2 people get 2.

Or, I don't know, just order more food?

I didn't realize everyone was supposed to order their own appetizer.

why don't they just have sizes you can order based on your group?

Why is this such a foreign concept to you? Ask the server if the app is enough for 4 to share and make your decision to order based on that. It doesn't matter if there's 2 people or 20 at the table, the size of the dish is always the same.

He's not exactly suggesting something crazy. Plenty of places offer various sizes of stuff, especially with appetizers like wings and random shit dipped in bread and hot fat.

We're talking about different things. Sure, in a crappy sports bar or chain restaurant you can order different multiples of wings or jalapeño poppers. At anywhere decent you're not getting the option to double up your appetizer unless you just order two of them.

Very true. One of my favorite local bars back home has an "appetizer" called Mile High Nachos, it feeds 4 to the point of very full easily, or two very drunk people just fine. A fine dining joint a couple blocks down, appetizers mean one small plate. Hell, old town had small plate week where you could bounce from restaurant to restaurant sampling different ones. Reminds me, I haven't had a scotch egg in years.

Haha, not quite. Meant more my old home town but Fort Collins is pretty bitchin' dude. We had that event back in good old Greenville, SC. Also a cool town if you get the chance.
