National Day of Support for...

[Red Arrow]

It's amazing.  Mike Huckabee wrote on book on weight loss about 5 years ago.  Now he goes and undos that by calling for a Chick-fil-a appreciation day.

I doubt that one trip to Chick-fil-a is going to do much to you.  I've never been there but some of the guys at work went once a week for quite a while.  Then they changed to Buffalo Wild Wings.  I think the latest fad is Freebirds.

Why? It's all the left has? If you support traditional marriage, you are a homophobe. Just ask the current white house occupant, who was a homophobe and a bigot until recently. Now, heading over the Chick-Fil-A to protest anti-First Amendment right people.

I don't expect the left, or anyone, to stop bashing homophobes and bigots.  I just want to redefine some otherwise unrelated words to describe them like other groups have abandoned derogatory words for new words that will be derogatory after a while.

Well, tell us all Nate when you will be at the "kiss in" this Friday at Chick Fil-A (you don't have to buy a damned thing--just sit there) to show your support for anti-homophobia or whatever else you bozos want to call people with a different opinion than you.

Heck, RM, organize a TNF brown bag lunch and support SSM. Action speaks louder than words...

It's easy to sit behind a computer and spew nonsense like Nate does. We will look for his live report from Chick Fil-A this Friday as he rolls up his sleeves and starts calling everyone eating there/working there a bigot and homophobe. Maybe some guy trying to just pay his bills or enjoy lunch will help Nate with some free dental work.

Please point out to me when I stated that everyone who works at Chick-Fil-A or eats at Chik-Fil-A is a homophobe. You'll have a hard time doing that, since I didn't say that. The company supports homophobes and is run by a self-professed homophobe. People are free to eat where ever they like. Perhaps they see the connection between their dollar and the radical religious right's campaign of divisiveness, fear, and hatred as indirect enough to be fine with spending their money there. It's not my problem or my place to tell them what to do.

How about you take off the burger king crown and stop hassling me over what I choose to spend my money on. What are you, some kind of crypto-fascist?

Ha!  This coming from the king of the ad-hominem?

Holy cow!

So everyone, the answer is NO. Nate will not be attending the "kiss in" after all. What's the matter, afraid to spend time with "those" people?

Their food is ok, but not exceptional.  The problem I have with them is they price it like it IS exceptional....

I eat there once in a while, because it is like so many fast foods...ya just gotta get a "fix" once in a while...

[heironymouspasparagus]

Time out!!!!

Completely unrelated to anything here....watching men's gymnastics for the first time in a long time, and a Japanese guy did a handstand that was incredible.  And did it very well, too.

The difference from what I have seen previously was that instead of hands at about shoulder width, his were a good 4 feet apart, or what looked like about double the normal width, making a very wide stance.  The power required for that is amazing!

Ok, back to your normally scheduled wackoutedness...

I agree with that. My kid loves it because of the play area. But I am going to make an announcement for recent choice of chicken. Everyone...I liked Pizza Hut/Wing Street hot "wings"--the breaded boneless. Okay purists, let er rip.

We have never had a TulsaNow lunch that turned bad. I don't want to risk our perfect record eating in a place that uses social issues to promote their food. I think that is in poor taste amd I want good tatste when I eat.

Nothing wrong with that.  I actually like Buffalo Wild Wings boneless wings.  I like both, but I also like the sauce selection BWW has.

[Red Arrow]

At no point have I said that other people can't eat there if they like.

You personally haven't said it but others (Chicago, Boston) have said so by wanting to prohibit the presence of Chick-Fil-A in those cities.

The fact that some do want to prohibit people from eating there is the bigger issue.

But I won't do Chuck-E-Sleazes....


Pizza Hut, huh?  Well, geez, guy, the Salvation Army will feed you if you go to the Center of Hope....  

Gotta love wings, though, but would rather have without the breaded.  Plus, real wings are dark meat - if you get the boneless, it is more white meat - too dry, less taste!


Another time out moment - 115 in Enid.  Was driving through Norman/Moore/OKC earlier and it was 112 on truck thermometer the whole time.  Yuck!!

Your taste buds are burned out from too many hot peppers.
