That's a threat you don't see often enough

NSFW Rant http://blogs.villagevoice.com/forkintheroad/2011/08/anthony_bourdai_17.php

Anthony Bourdain on the sale of 9/11 memorial wines said: "That's vomit inducing" and "I will personally leave an upper decker in the bathroom of whoever is responsible for this."

what a tasteless endeavor

What a horrible idea.

^^I assume you guys mean the commemorative wine, and not the upper-decking .

Upper deckers are always a good way to get your point across.

what, he couldn't have made more money by charging $20.01?

Not sure I get the fuss - because someone is potentially profiting from labeling a wine? Maybe it's not the most sensitive, but there is a charity aspect. It's not like others haven't profited from those events - construction companies, contractors, architects, videographers, politicians, authors... What could be more American than turn a tragedy into a capitalistic opportunity. That's gotta make the terrorist types nuts.

If that's the goal, they should have made it kosher.

Anthony Bourdain, marinated in win!

I could make so many tasteless jokes about that wine but I think I will refrain.

Can be used as jet fuel.

All of you are tasteless. I'm glad I found a place I can fit in.

I'm sure it is gross in some way, but what is an upper-decker? I didn't join a frat in college, so I'm gross-out-language-impaired.

You normally go in the lower deck of the toilet.

Google it. I'm not going to ruin it for the innocent here.

Generally Bourdain's "Im too cool for everything" attitude annoys me but I fully support his upper decker movement on this one.

Yea, dude annoys me sometimes, but that is effing hilarious.

And I can't come up with anything nearly as tasteless as you guys, so carry on.

is that the best whine he can come up with?

K, so I googled it and got the Urban Dictionary definition. Particularly enjoyed the "beef stew" reference. Thanks guys (and Anthony)!
