    The home of the 9,982-calorie "quadruple bypass burger" -- patrons who can finish them are escorted to their cars in wheelchairs -- isn't a safe place for employees, either.

    So the use of ironic would be accurate here, no?

    I don't know. Dooley started a thread about this same topic on the Anything Goes board and basically invited Irony Police to arrest him, so I'm assuming it's OK.

    The deceased guy, per the story, "lived a full life."

    The fact that February is heart health awareness month only adds to the irony.

    Son, it seems there is a little bit of confusion here, so I am going to write you off with a warning. None of this is ironic. The grill performed its stated mission. If it had been called "Won't Give You A Heart Attack Grill," you'd have some irony on your hands. If the spokesman had come up with the name, it would be even better.

    That it's Heart Health Awareness Month is coincidental.

    I fucking love Irony Police.

    Can you issue a bench warrant on Dooley? I know you're not a judge, but just do it?

    Your son didn't perform well at the Grammy's the other night.

    People, people, we're veering too far off topic. There's actually a restaurant that WHEELS YOUR LARD ASS TO YOUR CAR.

    He's not my son, which more than likely explains why he sucks.

    If he had sustained the heart attack while eating a salad at Sweet Tomatoes, we would be tiptoeing into the irony arena.
