This run up on a "rosy outloook" looks like pure bullshiner to me. Yeah, parents looking to save money in a recession are going to haul their kids off to go eat pizza that tastes like someone melted candlewax on a frisbee as their whining booger noses beg and plead for more and more and more coins so they can blow them on the crappiest and most worthless toys on the planet as freak-robots play nutty music and awkward teen girls do pitifully uninspired birthday dances. This is free CAPS points watching this one fall back down like that old lady in the commercial who can't get up. Also, the whole idea of this company - subjecting kids to a mini Vegas atmosphere and turning them into mindless spending machines in search of poo-toys is as 100% unFoolish as unFoolish can be. While they're at it, this bad joke of a business should serve the kid alcohol and cigars too. We're a not a nation of obese debt ridden walruses for nothing, you know. Pass the clothes pin, mamma, this one is a stinker.

Whoa. I can't believe this idiotic stool-chain is rising. Note to self: Never bet against stupidity in America. There's just too dang much of it. To paraphrase the Comic Book Guy. Worst. Chain. Ever.

Betting against American gluttony and mindlessness is never, ever a good bet. I have blown this one badly. Hopefully I'll catch a big earnings miss and be able to jump out without too much of a bruising. What a laugh to think of a business actually making money by snookering kids into paying quarter after quarter after quarter for mini crap rides that last for barely a minute.
