I don't know. Naughty is fun but then the naughty police come in and the word becomes "bad".

Wow, there's nothing inuendo about the Pink Taco in Vegas, other than its name I suppose (but I think that's a stretch). Such great, great food and knock-you-down-if-you-knock-em-down drinks. I never associated the place with any inuendo. Just a name, folks. Tell the peeps in Phoenix to chill.

I just think the name fails in it's cleverness, coming across more juvenile than sophisticated - Pink Taco, Hooters, Big Dicks, they're all kinda something your seven-year old would giggle over.

On the other hand I love the club name Liquid Kitty, though it is also a play aon certain sexual euphamisms

I think it's a combination of both, but it's all in the realm of the individual as to whether it's a bad thing. I think these euphamisms are common enough that even the cleanest of minds can pick up on a great extent of the verbage. Verbage is just that, though... nothing but a bunch of words we assign a personal meaning to.

I just think it's funny. But I think most things are funny.

It's the mayor of Scottsdale. If she hadn't made such a big deal over it I'd never have heard of it.

I have never even used the phrase "pink taco" and would think nothing of it if the Mayor of Scotsdale hadn't revealed her own kinky nature. ;)

Yes, but has Pink Taco ever been anything but that euphamism? I honestly don't know and maybe the bar started it all, but if you search the phrase you don't find anything that isn't either a reference to the "naughty" meaning or the restaurant in Vegas (I have no idea and will never find out since you'll never find me in a place with "Planet Hollywood" or "Hard Rock" over the door).

So is this not more like a case of someone naming a bar "Vagina" and saying "Hey, you can't think we were talking about actual vaginas we were just using a word without any meaning."

There are certainly cases like Bob's Big Boy and Juicy Lucy (at least once, in D.C., these two restaurants are next door to each other) where euphamistic meanings have accumulated and others like Hooters and Big Richards where they pretend to have no idea what you're talking about. I assume Pink Taco to be in the latter category.

That doesn't mean I really care if they have that name and if the food is good enough (Lani and I will stop for wings at the local Hooters every once in a while) I'll still go in. And it could be worse, I used to know a guy who referred to it as the furry tuna-fish taco. This was also the guy in the dorm who kept a two-liter soda bottle under his bed so that he wouldn't have to make the 8-foot trek to the common bathroom (and didn't feel it needed to be disposed of until full).

I guess I must live a sheltered life.

I don't think the folks who started The Pink Taco bar/restaurant have denied it's reference to female bits and pieces...
