Armed with a “teaser” for their new reality show, the folks at Amy’s Baking Company offer this to you, folks:
Yeah, that’s a Rick Roll — you know, the phenomenon wherein people would trick you into watching something, then hit you with Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up”?
It’s fine if you don’t remember, as the phenomenon got popular back in 2007, climaxed with a Rick Roll of the 2008 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade (featuring Astley himself, performing his once-again-popular hit), and slowly petered out as the older members of one’s family started using it in political contexts (“Oh ho ho, did you see what they did with Obama’s speech? Why, it’s hilarious that he’s used fairly common words in the past!”).
Now, the Bouzaglos have a hold of it. And may God help us if they realize its true potential.*
*Of which there is none.

Any Justice for their workers or defamed and insulted customers yet?
Return the stolen tips? Nope.
Apologize for the name calling and malice? Nope.
Take a personnel or restaurant management course? Nope.
Instead, they rickroll. How pathetic.
You are giving them to much credit with saying its only 5 years out of date.
I think someone needs to fly Taylor Chapman out to Amy’s Baking Co. and have her challenge the Bouzaglos to a standoff to see which side would actually win in a fight involving these highly delusional individuals.
The challenge will start with the Dunkin’ Donuts nutjob accusing the Bouzaglo bozos of not providing her with a receipt during her last visit and the sparks will fly from there. Statements will include: misinformation of customer/business laws and rights, reasons as to why I/we deserve to be entitled, cursing, racial slurs and threats of bodily harm. None of these statements will be in short supply as each side blindly and stubbornly stands their ground.
Taking into consideration that neither side will back down out of sheer false pride, eventually somebody’s head will explode in the style of the ’80s cult classic film “Scanners” and If it’s not Ms. Chapman’s, then things will get even more interesting.
I can dream, can’t I?
Haha I love your scenario, AZ/DC
Thanks for the positive comment BURNIE. I came up with this idea because I’m really tired of hearing about these fools. I figured that if they could all be put together in the same room to feed off their exponential negative energy that maybe heads will explode and the drama will finally end. Call me a wishful thinker.
