b.s.
papo furado, conversa fiada


Explanation:
Nesse contexto, "B.S." provavelmente é uma abreviação para "Back of House Staff," que se refere à equipe de cozinha e outros funcionários que trabalham nas áreas não visíveis aos clientes em um restaurante. Portanto, a frase significa que a pessoa não consegue mais pensar na equipe dos bastidores (cozinha e áreas similares) do restaurante SUR.
Em um contexto informal como esse, "B.S." pode ser traduzido como "papo furado" ou "conversa fiada". Portanto, a frase significaria que a pessoa não consegue mais pensar na equipe de "papo furado" ou "conversa fiada" do restaurante SUR. No entanto, é importante notar que essa tradução pode não captar completamente o significado da sigla, que parece ser usada de maneira específica no contexto do restaurante.
