"Mommy! Mommy! Turn on your headlights! The gorilla's eating the banana!"
I was minding my own business, eating a veggie burger at Burger King, and what transpired next may or may not offend.
(Quick aside: if your kids are old enough--and willing and able enough--to read the printing on a Burger King cup, would you, should you, hide their eyes?
Sounds ludicrous, eh? It just makes sense that the number two fast-food joint in America would take steps to avoid needlessly scaring away customers. Moreover, why take a chance on being sued over a barely funny quip?)
Anyway, here's what made me chew faster on my burger:
Certainly McDonald's wouldn't allow anything as suggestive as "going topless" on any of their cups.
The reason the HerbNation is calling attention to the above is because we aim to keep this site as responsible and healthy as Burger King. But do we need to lasso ourselves with as many chains of restraint as McDonald's does? Do we have to remain as pure and chaste and bland and prudish and uptight as Mickey D's? No. We can be a little more lively than that.
Does this liveliness bend over into the pornographic? No. You won't find any porn here. How about the "S" word? The "F" word? The "Z" word? Again, sorry, not here.
We may venture into "suggestive territory" occasionally, but those who are too young to appreciate words like "venture, suggestive, territory" and "occasionally" probably won't linger here long. Yes, my younger readers might understand a word like "suggestive," but they can't really appreciate what it means. To which we here at HerbCentral say, "All in good time, there, little Billy and little Suzy: you'll appreciate what 'suggestive' means when you're darn good and ready."
Finally, due to the ever-looming specter of hackers dripping spooge* on this nearly pristine site, we realize it's possible that you--the alert visitor--might chance upon something offensive hereabouts. If you feel violated, click here.
* I don't know what it means; therefore, it can't be a bad word.
