Tasteless event of the week: 9.11 tribute Tennessee whisky style

jackdaniels911.jpg We're not sure if this is more insensitive or illogical, but I Love Shanghai is hosting a 9/11 tribute party with Jack Daniels cocktail specials. Normally, we "celebrate" national tragedies with a more solemn half-mast approach, but we guess with good old JD coming to the party, anything could happen! As transplanted New Yorkers, we're kind of offended at the blatant exploitation of September 11th and we're not convinced that 25 yuan whiskey cocktails are how you "keep it real" in these circumstances. Needless to say, we have better things to do on Friday, but if you go, expect a ton of Darryl Worley singalongs, footage of the 2004 Republican National Convention, and if you're lucky, an exclusive screening of World Trade Center with Nick Cage.

Check the CW link above to see what some guy named gusanocomemuerto wrote. Classic.

Anyone care to speculate how a bunch of westerners holding a party to "tribute" the Sichuan Earthquake would play in the Chinese media?

5000 years and not one ounce of class. Yeah, let's go "remember" the Sichuan earthquakes with some Maker's.

Hey nanheyangrouchuan, before you get going again with your "China sucks" broken record BS, I Love SH is owned and operated by an American. The only Chinese who work there are one or two of the servers.

When we say you come across as bad as eastman, this is the type of thing we're referring to. You really should do your homework before you open your mouth.

Then that so called "american" is a panda licking little bitch who can spend the rest of his life in China.
