I am mildly astonished.

It's like...if someone opened a restaurant called Niggers, and the all-black waitstaff dressed like slaves and step 'n' fetched you platters of watermelon...And racists could go! And indulge their desire to be publicly racist under the guise of a fun-loving theme restaurant! Niggers! It's all in fun. It really is like that.

Fuck Hooters.  Their beer selection sucks, their pitchers are small and probably watered down, and their food is comparable to a really good Applebees, which is to say it's mediocre at best.

The real reason not to go to Hooters, though, is the fucking waitresses.  They will SIT DOWN AT YOUR FUCKING TABLE to take your order.  They try to TALK TO YOU.

Look, honey, I'm fucking hungry.  Bring Me My fucking cheeseburger and beer and shut your whore mouth.

Dammit, hussy!  I'm trying to watch God Damned Wrestlemania, because this is sure the fuck cheaper than buying the PPV.  Get your fake plastic tits soaked in orange spray-on tanner out of My fucking face and BRING ME MY FUCKING NACHOS!  SHUT UP!  SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!

Jesus, Jesus. If you're that hungry and cranky, you shouldn't have gone to Hooters.

Their food does kinda suck, though.

You know wanting to watch oiled down flamboyant mens in clingy costumes grapple with each other instead of making small talk with a friendly woman with a nice rack means your chances of getting laid grow ever slimmer.

To each their own.  When I eat out, I want my waitron to be clean and efficient, and if necessary, able to answer questions about the menu items.  It’s nice if the waitron is in college or has something else worthwhile going on in their life away from work, but I don’t want them to sit down at the table and discuss it.  I would prefer the waitron not lower themselves to flirting with me for a better tip because I see that as degrading for both of us.  We both know the waitron would never seriously consider a bit of financially uncompensated sexual congress with someone old enough to be their father or grandfather; porn lit to the contrary, very few young people are overcome with wet panties or raging hardons as the case may be over the idea of sex with older people.  I hate it when a waitron insults my intelligence by pretending to be one of the very rare exceptions.

Dude.  I'm coming down and were hitting up another ATL Streeter and we're getting you some pussy(not from the other Streeter, but we'll find it somewhere).

My father nearly had an engraved table at one of the local ATL Hooters.  We ate there a lot.  I dug the wings growing up but have since moved on to their Buffalo shrimp, just about the only thing edible anymore on the menu.  I came really close to dating a Hooter's waitress while in college.  The ones where I live now have some of the ugliest waitresses by the scale of Hooter's I have frequented in the past.  It is unbelievable.

Sofie, your gym teacher line made me laugh as it immediately conjured up the last scene of Weird Science.

http://img.listal.com/image/471478/500full-kelly-le-brock.jpg

Your nieces BTW?  The brunette?  How young, er...old is she?  :)

I generally try to ignore the waitresses "acting" and make a point to either sit at the edge of the booth or seem extremely indignant when they sit down.  After all the years I spent eating at Hooter's I do have one extreme pet peeve about the waitresses.  If they don't open that cup of ranch or bleu cheese I generally will have a mini freak-out inside my head and leave a smaller tip.  Odd, yes but that's the only part of their job I expect them to do.

And fun fact(which was in ATL and Tennessee but I notice isn't so much true here):  They all get a name tag when they are hired however they oftentimes wear each other's because of customers who tend to stalk them.  It is only after many visits and sitting with the same waitress that you can usually learn their real name.

Now that I'm sober, I'd like to speak in the defense of Hooters.

The woman who reviewed it was funny, but it's really easy to make fun of the concept of Hooters, and reporters have been doing it for nearly 30 years. She sounded insecure, and defensive, and envious. All qualities that are very unattractive, even in the best looking women. She sounds hideous, and I have no idea what she looks like, how well she takes care of herself, or how she utilizes her intelligence to be charming when she's in a situation where she's not defending her ego.

I think Hooters is cheesy, but it's really a harmless place for men to congregate and enjoy themselves. I also think that part of the horror expressed by many women about the environment of Hooters stems from the fact that they can't wrap their minds around the fact that men's fantasies don't even resemble their own romantic notions.

Men can just as easily make fun of the cheesiness of women's romance novels and chick flicks. It is a nice escape from reality for the people who indulge in them.

And Scotty...they're 19 and 21. Far too old for your...preferences.

I read the whole thing thinking it was written by a man.  Actually, with the name "Lindy," it's probably a woman, but I'm not 100% convinced.

You are right about the whole "escape from reality" thing.  I wouldn't go to a Hooters for the same reason I wouldn't go to Disney World.  Although I'd never suggest that nonsense like that should be forbidden--that wasn't my point at all--the Hooters "fantasy" does seem unusually repugnant, at least to me.

What's wrong with peanut oil?  I mean, I know it's not the healthiest oil around, but it sure is good for deep frying.

It was written by a man, I'm pretty sure.  It was this line that convinced me, and the part about the eye contact:

5. My previous trip to Hooters: On a business trip to Washington, D.C., three middle-aged ladies thought it would be hee-larious to drag their bookish young employee to a Hooters for a business lunch. I ate a pale, gamy chicken sandwich, watched a Hooters waitress try to teach an awestruck 3-year-old boy how to Hula-hoop (she was probably more successful at creating a future panty-hose fetishist), and puked my lunch back out on the side of NPR's headquarters during the walk back.

The article was hyperbolic, but I find the concept of Hooters to be about as creepy.  It's the whole pretend family atmosphere along with the fake flirty thing.  If it's going to be a sexual fantasy themed eatery, then don't pretend it's a fun family restaurant that's just named after the local owls.  I think the only reason Hooters exists is for people who are too ashamed to go to a strip club to go to a place where it's okay to stare at a live performer's tits.  That's fine, I'm not out to shut down the strip clubs either, but somehow Hooters' wink-and-a-nod not-a-strip-club thing seems icky to me.

In the interests of sanitary conditions I have pants in mind unless the waitstaff wishes to shave their legs.  The top would be some kind of mesh/bodystocking, form fitting, hopefully see through number that would display the wares but conform to healthy eating establishment regulations.

Now that I think about it I could hire Taint as both a culinary and wardrobe consultant.

Everything is finalized in my head and I do mean everything.  My only sticking point is that women most likely would not frequent such an establishment.  My idea does titillate(poor choice of words, I know)but it isn't the crude wooden table and lodge look of Hooter's.  As much as that may be the case I have never done market research to see if women would take to it or not.

Hey, Rotten, want to invest in a dining establishment?

I don't mind Hooters that much, it's a place that has cold beer and onion rings.  I don't go to Hooters that often, but once or twice a year it's nice to go there, down five or six tall glasses of beer and gawk at the waitresses.  I don't think gawking at the waitresses is exploiting them either, no one is forcing them to work there.  One rule of thumb I've found though, only go to a Hooters if it's in a college town, the waitresses are younger and far better looking.  My last girlfriend found out that I visited Hooters from time to time and she flipped the fuck out like I was going there to fuck the waitresses.  People like that obviously have no self-esteem if they can't handle someone drinking a few beers and enjoying the eye candy.

I think Hooters is okay.  The food is decent at the one I go to, the waitresses are friendly.  And I fucking LOVE the fried pickles they just came out with.  Had my birthday there, with my 4 year old son and my wife, my cousin and his 13 year old daughter, who was given a shirt.  It wasn't her first time at the restaurant either. 


Sure they dress skimpy, sure they flirt, I like that too... but I come back for the buffalo chicken sandwich and the fried pickles.
