I Hate Your Favorite Restaurant

Is it the Cheesecake Factory? If you are a man or woman, and you have ever loved the show, Friends, or followed a season of American Idol, then the answer is probably yes. And if that’s so, you should really take a look at yourself. Take a long hard look. You are looking at someone who has bad taste. Incidentally, when my grandfather came to this country from Hungary in 1940, he worked in a factory. And to my understanding, there were no mini-burgers or southwest flavored spring rolls where he worked. There were no chipotle linguinis or shrimp and bacon club sandwiches. There was 14 cents an hour and a good day was one in which you were not permanently disfigured by machines. Cheesecake Factory is not a delicious restaurant and you should not look forward to eating there. Did you finish that other two-thirds of your Luau Salad that the lady boxed up for you (for ten minutes) and you took home and put in your fridge? Are you proud of yourself? And if you were thinking of CPK, or PF Changs, then you too probably listen to mp3’s of Clay Aiken on an iPod Shuffle. Stop reading this blog and go watch your DVD box set of Gray’s Anatomy.
