dabitch said:The article is pointing out that the terribly offended vegetarians are inadvertently creating more press (earned media) about an ad that is based on a very old joke about teenagers phases. Word about the 24 burgers, one that can call itself vegetarian apparently, is spreading far and wide now. These people who love animals so much they chose to be vegetarian just because they love animals? I don't think they spend money in an establishment where 23 burgers are made of meat, I think that their animal-loving conscience would hinder that. In other words, I'm calling bullshit on the complaining comments made on facebook&twitter. The Red Robin ad is making fun of teenagers and their finicky phases. The ad below is directly mocking vegetarians. "Pick your battles" my old boss used to say. He had a point. Respect the grill. There's no tofickingway that the vegetable hot dog gets to grill next to your Johnsonville Brattender. You are aware, that I - as the site founder, creator coder and resident "insensitive cunt" - can see your tofricking IP number, Kaufmann/Dannel? No? Well, trust me I can, and I can see that you opened that tab again, gave yourself a new name and pretended you didn't make the three previous comments. Just like those vegetarians who say they used to love the garden burger but now will never go back, you're fibbing and it's showing.on the post: Red Robin - "Teenage Daughter" / Garden burger - (2013) :15 (USA)

dabitch said:No idea mate, a bit of a shame really as I find that Melanie Paxson does a bang-up job acting out that line, with her little thumb-point, side-mouth whisper and pointed glare. Nicely cast, Red Robin.on the post: Red Robin - "Teenage Daughter" / Garden burger - (2013) :15 (USA)

dabitch said:So spending a little dosh on odd viral clips is his next move? I'm sort of hoping he has some strange product up his sleeve here. Dish dosh something. Can't be any worse than Mcafee antivirus BA DUM TISH! Alert Alert! John says he's doing this to distance himself from that shitty anti-virus... and to mock the press while he's at it. “I haven’t been associated with that company for over 19 years—I say 15 in the video but in reality it’s been over 19 years—and yet people are angry at me for developing that software,” McAfee said. “Those comments that I read in the video, by the way, are real comments. If you Google ‘Fuck McAfee,’ you’ll see hundreds of thousands of comments like that. The comments I read are just from the first page that come up on a Google search.” “If people are mad at me for that software at least I can help them uninstall it,” McAfee said. “Press reports have me running around with several women,” he says. “If that’s my label, here’s my take on it. Bath salts? Same thing. Guns? Same thing. When all this began, the most topical item on Web was the man who did all those bath salts and then eats another man’s face on a freeway in Florida, so now my image is that I go with bath salts. Let me tell you, if I were to go with drugs, why would I go with bath salts when I could afford to buy cocaine by the pound if I wanted it?”on the post: John McAfee - How To Uninstall McAfee Antivirus - wtf?

dabitch said:AntDude! *highfives* And fairuse, I'm with you. No idea what he's doing here other than really distancing himself from the crap that his virus software has become. And entertain us. Whoismcafee leads to yestodish ... Yes To Dish? On his twitter he currently converses a lot with Kim Dotcom and tells people about this video. Hmmmm....on the post: John McAfee - How To Uninstall McAfee Antivirus - wtf? (2013)

dabitch said:I think the "phase" market is exactly who they are going for. My point above is that those vegetarians who "want to save animal lives" don't frequent establishments where 90% of the menu is meat. That would contradict their stance. People who chose to be vegetarians for other reasons may have less of an issue with a garden burger being fried up on the same grills as the angus beef one. People who have dietary restrictions due to religious grounds are likely not going to Red Robin at all. The potential customers that they may have offended here (with a joke about teenagers, not a jab at vegetarians) are the meat-free office co-workers who might otherwise have joined in at lunch when Bossman said "burgers for lunch!" and picked Red Robin to go to. In the #millionreasons hashtag and on Facebook there are plenty of offended vegetarians who claim they used to like the garden burger (really?) and that they'll never go back for one now. Because the waitress made a joke about teenagers being finicky.on the post: Red Robin - "Teenage Daughter" / Garden burger - (2013) :15 (USA)
