Yah, that would’ve been rather awkward. Think of the explantations to the insurance company, for one thing...

I was thinking the same thing but the guy got off lucky... The restaurant could have charged him for weight loss treatments!

Are we playing Scrabble? If so, I choose “objectivization” for 38 points.

Wow, they are letting kids have wine. The teetotalers here in the states would have the ATF in there faster than you could say Boone’s Farm.
