it's how they would have wanted it

I was golfing with a buddy today (golfing is an evil, evil activity) and he asked me if I was going to a cookout or whatnot after golf. I said I didn't know. I was going to play it by ear and see what was going on.

He said, "You have to go. Think of all the soldiers that have fought for America." I said, "Yes, thousands have died purely so I can gorge myself this afternoon."
