And I Thought Hooters was Bad!

So I only began to read the article, but it's pretty frickin' hilarious/offensive!

I embarrassingly admit the headline caught my eye when the daily AOL news popped up after I logged on to AIM. And rather than let it pass, I thought I would share. It was just such a shocker... Pun intended.

Awesome. But yeah, that kind of thing belongs in Vegas. Not Scottsdale.

The article says the people who object call it "derogatory slang". I think it's slang, and it's risqué, but derogatory? I've heard some derogatory terms for that kind of thing, and I think P.T. is just a harmless euphemism. Any thoughts?

I think it's harmless, but inappropriate. I also find it totally unappetizing to eat at a restaurant by that name... but that is just me.

Oh, that's awesome. That's way better than Tang Dynasty.

I disagree with Jay on it not belonging anywhere but Las Vegas. I don't think that this business should be punished for its name. Let the people of the town decide, if The Pink Taco doesn't make enough money to stay open, then they'll close up shop and go somewhere else. It's their money.

I think the name TGI Friday is ridiculous, but I'm not writing letters to the editor or the mayor or anyone else saying they should have their business license revoked.

What if I wanted to open a restaurant and call it Red Snapper and one of the dishes on the menu was...Red Snapper? Could I only open it in Las Vegas?

What if I wanted to open a restaurant called C U Next Tuesday?

Love the Sex and the City reference Adam! C U Next Tuesday would be a fabulous name!
