the Cheesecake Factory is a bunch of sadists
My sister and I signed up last year onto the Cheesecake Factory's emailing list, to get free offers and what-not; periodically we'll get a reminder of some holiday (with no specials) to encourage us to spend money. Last week we got an email titled "What Are You Doing For Mother's Day?"
My sister threatened to email them back with: Well, MY mother's dead. What are YOU doing for Mother's Day? Rub it in, why don't you?
Today I got an email from them titled "Veronica, Mom Wants Cheesecake." My immediate thought was, wait, did they have a seance, and the woman placed an order from beyond the grave? Am I expected to pay for that if they actually find a way to deliver it to her, or can she maybe put it instead on her BooExpress Card? (Motto: "Don't Leave This Earth Without It.")
