My profile says I'm cranky a lot. Isn't my word good enough? Why do I need 2 friends to verify? I want my free lunch NOW, damnit.

from what i've seen, the entire city of chicago qualifies for a free lunch.

can the 3 people come in and each two "verify" the crankiness of the third?

haven't bothered to read the article

Right...that's not just begging for abuse of the new policy. It won't last long.

I am living proof of SonOfSecretPolice's claim.
I have an entire department that can certify my crankiness.

If I bring two friends, can they bring two friends and their friends bring two friends?

I get really grouchy if my stomach is completely empty. I have to be careful not to say anything cuz I'd probably snap out at someone. I think it has something to do with my blood sugar, maybe I'm diabetic to a certain small degree.

It's only interesting if they give the disgruntled ones a free firearm before they return to the workplace.

Otherwise, this is a really good promotional idea. Who among us doesn't just love being trapped in a booth in a crappy restaurant with the office pissy-face?

Not only would my co-workers testify to my crankiness, but I'm so cranky they'd probably go and ask the cook if they could spit in my meal as well.

If you're cranky enough to get the free lunch, would 2 other people really want to come with you?

That policy is sure to be a hit with the waitress. Or the waitress is sure to be hit under that policy. I'm not sure which.

Berghoff Cafe, a new restaurant, is giving cranky individuals a free lunch if they come in with two other co-workers who can verify their crankiness.
The Berghoff is a new restaurant? I thought it had been around for about a century. Or is there another Berghoff in Chicago?

Talk about being over qualified for the job

Patrons must be able to answer yes to three of several questions like: "Are you often caught practicing your frown in the restroom mirror," Are your favorite words, `I told you so,'" and "Do you find yourself sitting in front of your high-speed internet connection yelling, `Hurry up?'"

In addition to these I also can make small children cry, kick puppies and have a general distaste for happiness.

Nope, you're just going to have to turn up the dial on the irascible-ometer. That attitude you just displayed is good for free coffee, maybe a packet of saltines.

I think the original is just Berghoff's...no cafe

Can I interest you in something to nibble on? How about some pizza shooters, or some extreme fajitas?

Being cranky is fun. It gives you an excuse to say things you can't get away with saying when you're in a good mood. Plus people are nicer to you for some reason.

Lotta Farkers could eat for free at this place.

I find Farkers are generally crankier than the average population. Maybe that's because we're more informed or maybe that's because we all sit on our asses in front of computers all day jabbing each other with (metaphorical) pointed sticks.

WHo the fark cares. Bring on the free grub!

"Cranky" Hey! I know that word. That's female speak for "biatch". I was told by my marriage counseler to use "Cranky" instead of "biatch" to describe my wife when she's on the rag.

And ladies, when your man is "Agitated"...us guys call that, being an "Asshole".

A rose by any other name...

moresugar - This is the new Berghoff Cafe, as opposed to the old Berhoff Restaurant. My in-laws wandered in there last week during their visit and we were all confused by it at first as well. The cafe is designed to be a quick meal pickup place, not a sit-down joint.

From your profile, I never would have guessed you were cranky.

What if you are so cranky no one will even go to the restaurant with you?
