Chinese Bar Offers Beating and Abuse

[deadparrot]

A new bar in China offers customers an unusual way to relieve anger - by allowing them to use the staff as punching bags.

In addition to getting a drink, customers at the "Rising Sun Anger Release Bar" in Nanjing city are able to pay money to beat up staff, smash glasses, shout and scream, the China Daily said.

If that doesn't work, customers can also receive psychological counselling, the paper said.

The bar employs 20 well-built men in their 20s and 30s who have agreed to be hit. Customers can specify how they want the men to appear - they can even be dressed up as women.

3. The first rule of Rising Sun Anger Release Bar...

is you don't post anything to DU about Rising Sun Anger Release Bar! :-)

Seriously, what are they so angry about? They hold a fair chunk of our Treasury debt and are in position to be our economic overlords within a decade or two...
