Is it Stupid Day at Harvard? Never mind, that' every day. Maybe if the Prof was nice about he might have gotten some free egg rolls on his next order to comp for the error. Or is Prof Edelman shaking down the Duan family because he's...he's...GASP!...RACIST against Asian people?
The $4 is the abuse fee.
No class jackass.

Once this went public the jackass has backed off and apologized.
Wasn’t there a case like this a few years ago, involving a professor and a Chinese-owned laundry?
Where the plaintiff ended up losing everything he had over a dispute over a misplaced pair of pants?
What a little bitch.
“Prof” Edelman is part of the Gruber clan of self-serving a$$holes who somehow have come to the incorrect conclusion that they are “smarter” than the rest of us! When I think of the “universities” in Boston, I am reminded of the line by Al Pacino in The Scent of a Woman: “if I were the man I used to be, I’d take a flamethrower to this place!” He actually misspoke, the word should have been “these places.”
I was once in a meeting with about a dozen lawyers where we were discussing a problem with a judge. One of the lawyers who was sitting right next to me said, “I have no problem suing other lawyers. I would sue my own mother. I would even sue you!” as he tried to intimidate me.
I looked at him and said, “I follow the rules of the Italian judiciary system!” He did not say another word.
Everyone including me just burst out laughing at his “non response.”
I keep a book handy in my office, even though I am not an attorney. It is “The Law Governing Lawyers, National Rules, Standards, Statutes, and State Lawyer Codes”. It does come in handy when someone like the guy in this news story oversteps the boundaries. First thing I would do is find out who his clients are and become an instigator... Sun Tzu was a wise man.
Sounds as though the customer has a fool for an attorney!
What a douche bag.
I hate petty theft too, but I reward it with no further business.
Ben is begging for a “roogie” in his lo mien.
If he really felt a mission to avenge vague and misleading price lists... why didn’t he just sue in small claims court. And never order anything from them again. Getting all huffy and puffy about it is asinine.
The positive response the restaurant is receiving might induce some unscrupulous restauranteurs to hire know-it-alls who could threaten to sue them over some imaginary slight.
The restaurant owner admitted that he has been knowingly and deliberately defrauding his customers “for quite some time.” That is illegal.
The outrageous stunt and the threats from this guy aren’t unique. It’s quite common. Ask anyone that’s ever been in a customer service job or has ever dealt with the public.
Another Ivy League Gruberian elitist ... this country stinks with them ...
“I apologize for the confusing [sic],” Duan wrote. “Our websites prices has been out of date for quite some time. I will male sure to update it, if you would like I can email you an updated menu.”
This apology is an admission to guilt. You charge what you
advertise. If the prices are different than what is advertised
and you don’t make an effort to inform the customer
of the difference then that’s false advertisement and
they deserve everything they get including a lawsuit
that puts them out of business.
The tard Edelman is right on this one and the restaurant owner
should be sued out of business. No telling how much
ill-gotten gain they have pocketed off of this scam.
Brookline has to be experienced to be believed. It’s Disneyland for liberals, the Most Miserable Place on Earth. Think of a place full of Jonathan Grubers, where Mike Dukakis is king. Edelman is Citizen of the Year in Potterville on the Charles.
Brookline Mercedes come with C*O*E*X*I*S*T already engraved on the bumper. Carbon offsets optional. “Smart” cars are bracelet charms that decorate driveways, but are never driven. SUVs are haram. The Brookline Police deport anyone driving one to Waltham.
If you are ever stranded there by a cruel fate, take in a film festival at the Coolidge Corner Theater, and eat at Micheal’s Deli, then get the Hell out.
Sounds like a script for an episode of Big Bang Theory.
