Blech: Renowned Romantic Restaurant TGI Friday’s Launches Mistletoe Drones

Of all the obligatory affection we’re expected to show during the Holidays, mistletoe kisses definitely make me the most uncomfortable. But, judging from that above TGI Friday ad, I’m in the minority. People love being pressured by robots and waitstaff into swapping mozzarella-tinged spit with their dinner companions! ‘Tis the season, ohohohoho!

Company representative Rachel Waller had this to say about the mistledrones,

We’re known for legendary celebrations at Fridays, so we wanted to see how we could make Christmas get-togethers in our restaurants even more entertaining, and offer guests the encouragement they need to make their move. Our mistletoe drones are the perfect way to do this. Not only are they great fun for the entire restaurant, but they help people get a little closer at this time of the year.

Who knows—maybe we’ll have had our first mistletoe drone wedding by this time next year.

There’s a sobering thought.
