Sorry, I found this burger bar more offensive than a lapdancing club
Daily Mail (UK) ^ | Liz Jones

This is probably the worst Friday night of my life - and that's saying something. I'm sat on a high stool at a small table, plasma screens are oozing sports programmes around my head and there is a grubby plastic menu in front of me that is littered with pictures of fast food.

Not a green vegetable in sight, unless you count a deep fried chilli, coated in batter.

There is the thump, thump, thump of awful music in the background, competing with the braying of table upon table of men: young men, old men, students, office workers, football supporters...

Weaving between the tables are young women bearing enormous, overflowing jugs of beer and steaming piles of food. I keep beckoning the wrong waitress, as it's so hard to tell them apart.

OK, I tried the locations link a second time but it doesn’t work for me. The page on wikipedia mentions Arizona and Las Vegas.

Ohhhhhh ....so that’s what they’re hiding behind the little black order pad and pencil holder.

Who’d a thunk it !

Low class and low brow. Tacky and unrefined is how they say it.

How did I describe the waitresses?

Made “friends” with all the waitresses did you? But not hitting on them. Oh no. Of course not. Just making “friends”.

You know they are paid to be friendly don't you?

Bitter? Not at all. I think it is funny that people don't see it as what it is. Trey Parker and Matt Stone were not fooled, to amusing comic effect. Have a good laugh and watch the episode! Lexus will be your friend!

Old? Getting that way!

Hag? I am a guy, and I like, as Frank Zappa would say “T!tties and Beer” as much as the next guy. They are JUBTABULOUS, I just prefer to enjoy them at home and not with hot wings! ;)

I have the same opinion of Hooters as I do of pasties on topless dancers.

Why not just go whole hog full frontal nudity? Do the pasties make it classier?

Haha, it is also funny that the “salad” is mostly bacon and fried chicken.

Not the side garden salad. As for the other salads, most restaurants are happy to replace the high-fat items with more vegetables, and I doubt Hooters is any different.

This writer's complaint of missing greens reminds me of Michael Moore's rants about his high-calorie visits to McDonalds. The evil American megacorporation forced him to order all those cheeseburgers, milk shakes and fries! That's all they serve!

Well, that's not all they serve. Read the damn menu. Moore could easily have ordered a McDonalds grilled chicken salad with low fat dressing and a low-cal soda, but then he would have had nothing to complain about.

I have been to exactly one Hooters, in Rockville, Maryland, once. Somehow I managed to finish my reasonably healthy lunch without assaulting any of the cute waitresses or demanding that they remove their tops. I know, it is hard to believe that any male would act that way, but it is true. No, I am not gay.

In a few years consider having your kid's birthday is at a local Hooters.

It's a family restaurant after all.

Sounds like a real family environment to me! If your family is from the trailer park.

Maybe you were just on the wrong side of the tracks. This isn't anything like the ones I've been to. As far as cleavage goes, ha ha ha ha.

The name itself is trashy as is the Hooters logo. You’d figure that out if you had any street smarts.

Same as a club called Peckers with guys in speeds would be.

That said I wouldn’t patronize one but I’m not going to bother myself about its existence.


Someone else arguing a priori and making false analogies.

An aside, as a former crack addict (with many years clean now), I'll put my street smarts against yours ANY day of the week. ;)

I’m getting a chuckle out of this thread.

Seems like a lot of “Freedom” folks would rather have their waitresses in a Burka. :)

Hooters is basically the place middle aged and old me go who are so whipped by their wives that they don’t have the stones to go to a real strip club.... Nothing more.

Not my thing, but hey, if that’s your outlet, so be it.
