Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Tommy, I just linked to that review in my LJ. The whole concept is just so wrong on so many levels.

It sounds kinda' boring. If only your waiter/waitress had to occasionally defend your table from zombie attack. Or maybe the occasional pirate raid.

But is ninja food any good?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Nah. It has that annoying way of vanishing before you even see it.

From the review:

But you will be spared an infinitely larger measure of tedium, a visually histrionic smorgasbord of undistinguished food and a discordant bill that can easily exceed $100 a person with tax, tip and drinks.

Sounds like Medieval Times is the better bargin.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

not to mention, what's the point of porn on a 2 inch screen?

life-sized girly bits?

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

The first is described by a ninja escort as simple and direct. The second is "dark, dangerous and narrow," involving a long tunnel and a drawbridge that descends only when your escort intones a special command, which he later implores you to keep secret.

sounds like this other place I went to in NY, the Explorer's Club or something. You had to use secret passwords, and such.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

That Wired article was retarded in multiple ways. Among other things, they have a single source who (1) doesn't actually make porn; (2) licenses porn to mobile phones and therefore overcomes the exact same issues that are identified for making porn available on iPods and (3) admits that his clients are studying ways to produce porn for the iPod --and they headline it "no porn for you"!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

t random restaurant eccentricities

When Hec's older sister was a baby and he was yet to be born, his parents used to plant her with a sitter at the Travis AFB and go to a restaurant/nightclub in San Francisco that you could only enter by sliding down a slide.

I really want to start saving now and, upon Zmayhem's retirement, rent a corner building in North Beach and reopen that slidey club.
