Go check out Tony Bourdain's "Overrated Menu." My favorite part is the Chocolate Martini:
Both chocolate and liquor are good in bars, but ordering them together announces that you don't like or appreciate either. Anyone who requests this drink should also get a T-shirt that says "I am an asshole, please take my money."
I love Tony Bourdain. I think it would be a hoot to go out to dinner with him. However, I take issue w/ the truffle oil. I think that legitimate chefs use it, although I have never used it or tasted it. My favorite comments on this menu are about the Amish chicken!

Bourdain is like an evil friend who consistently horrifies you yet entertains you like no one else.

Truffle oil IS expensive. It was only after buying a bottle that I discovered I can't stand the taste of it!
