We're talking about Beef O'Brady's®! http://www.beefobradys.com/franchis.htm I'm not sure what's more hilarious: the stupid name, their obsessive need to have every appearance of their stupid name followed by a registered trademark, the "Eating beef and watching sports while drinking domestic beer with your backwards baseball cap wearing son = Being a good American" theme or a bar that has this sentence as part of their mission statement: "Hours are 11:00 A.M. to 11:00 P.M. seven days a week and are designed to discourage the late night crowd. There is no liquor served at Beef O'Brady's®." Noooooooo!!!!! So, I can't decide whether I should send them outraged e-mails about the marginalization of women sports fans in their franchise statement or just spell "America" as as "AmeriKKKa" for the rest of the day. Addendum: I got an e-mail from my sister Jenny today announcing that she's applied for a job at Beef O'Brady's® in Atlanta: Jenny: I applied for a job a Beef O'Brady's. Molly:
You must call it Beef O'Brady's®! If you don't use the Registered
Trademark, Mr. O'Brady® sues you. Also, if you don't use the exclamation
point, you're not adequately expressing enthusiasm when beholding a
bar that closes at 11 pm and serves no liquor.
