People die of obesity, therefore you are not amused by the fact that there is a restaurant that makes light of heart attacks and the like.

I find their corporate strategy that aims to undermine people's health awareness irresponsible. They should be ashamed. Nobody's claiming that alcohol isn't harmful.

People die of liver failure and plenty of other conditions stemming from abusing or overindulging in alcohol, yet you're OK with people dressing up in green and getting wasted on scotch and Guinness.

Maybe a better analogy might be a bar that had a line of specialty shots with names like "The Blackout" "The Homewrecker" "The Turbovomit 3000" and so on.

I'd totally order the first two!


I might add that if my views seem slightly extreme, it's probably because I think about food a lot. It's my major! Food science and technology.



Hah, I would order those shots as well. I just meant that just like you ordering a shot called "The Blackout" doesn't make you irresponsible or an alcoholic, neither does having a "quadruple bypass burger."
I amuse myself.
