"That's vomit inducing" and "I will personally leave an upper decker in the bathroom of whoever is responsible for this."

^^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.
Does it get you flying high and then a sudden crash at the end.

One drink and you'll end up in a field!
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.

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)!![](/media/img/icons/smilies/googly-18.png)
