And when they realize how good it feels just to say it.....

The cupcakes: The vanilla ones tastes anti-septic. Poor in the cake department and the icing as well. But it's not all bad news. The saving grace of this establishment is its politics and the chocolate chocolate cupcake. They had a promotion one week in which all you had to do to get a free cupcake was go in and tell them "I Hate Bush." Bingo. They hand you over a moist, rich, creamy piece of heaven. Only problem was you had to arrive early before they sold out of'em all.

Another day in New York

Well, New York is really overwhelming.

<snip>

We were getting hungry so our next stop was dinner at a quaint restaurant called Burgers and Cupcakes. Mike S had picked this place out as a place to go so we did indeed head there. Its one of these concept restaurants that kind of appeals to particular people. We had some fun with the restuarant. They even gave us free cupcakes … because we followed the instructions on the sign in the window saying “Free cupcakes if you tell us you hate Bush”. Easily done!

16. Lucky for them they're in New York
If that sign were in someplace like a rural red state, it wouldn't have lasted an evening before brownshirts destroyed the picture window!

18. And in related news, a spike in local diabetes incidence was attributed to a cupcake giveaway.
They may go broke.

23. Thanks, Charlie
That absolutely made my day. Do you think they would ship some to me, as I tell at least ten people a day in Virginia how much I hate that fool?

26. Muffin1 wants a cupcake
Your ready-for-a-cupcake name made me smile :)

If I got a cupcake, I'd save it until I could eat it in front of a freeper.

"Wanna bite? PSYCHE!!! No cupcake for YOOOOUUU!"

Do they sell a burger wherein a large cupcake is the bun?
