Melody: yeah, I heard about this on the radio
personally it doesn't offend me, but I don't have sex shame issues either
John: the name amuses me, the reaction amuses me more.. I think it might be a leeeethle over the top for the corner of
Melody: I think it's adorable
I'd go there just to prove a point
John: its deliberately risque.. but its still a restaraunt, not a strip club
Melody: yes, but it's a least a joke that goes over the head of kids
John: and hey, if their liquor license application gets denied... "no liquor for the pink taco"
Melody: blinks bad, BAD John
John: :P
Melody: I agree though that if the restaurant is going for the younger yet legal age crowd, that's a fairly appropriate name for it
plus SOMEBODY needs to pick on
John: yep
Melody: it's not like they went and called it "the Vagina"
John: exactly
Melody: I know it will get turned down, but you have to give them credit for having the balls to do it in the first place
John: messa ge board thread on it.
subject: "mmmmm, pink taco"
first female respondent:
"what's the big deal? It's not like the place is being named "The Bearded Clam" or something."
Melody: lol
John: next response to that:
If he really wants to stand out, he should name the place "Vagina" or, even better, "Euphemism For Vagina"
random male: "I'd eat there..."
Melody: blinks bad, bad...
John: another female: "I'm going to open a restaurant and call it Va'J-J's. I'm sure you'll all stop by for a bite."
Melody: shakes head you know this is going up as a blog post right?
John: hehe

Melody: oh god
John: its probably a clam shack, too.. MD has famous clam chowder, and other bay shellfish
Melody: so of course that's a good name for it
