The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

The flipside of this is: when does it become prejudicial? Sure, it's good to stop eating somewhere because they don't let black people in. But its also bad to stop eating somewhere because I don't agree with the religion of the owners. What happens when we disagree on Prop 394 or support a different candidate for Comptroller? Before, it was easy to be ignorant. I blame Facebook culture for making everything a Big Deal and a binary decision. Now I'm aware of where everyone stands on everything, and I frankly would be happier not knowing sometimes.

Was it any different when they put election signs out in front of the business? People have been doing that sort of thing for decades.

But, honestly, who cares if it becomes prejudicial on your part? That's for you to decide. If you don't care whether or not the business supports the local school budget referendum, do business with them. If a proposition is important to you and you know a particular business supports the other side, go ahead and cross them off your "Do Business With" list. We all have our standards, they all differ, nobody runs an audit.

You are not compelled to form any opinion about this matter before you, nor to disturb your peace of mind at all. Things in themselves have no power to extort a verdict from you – Marcus Aurelius

So, Marcus Aurelius says it's okay to actually not care about some things and live your life.

Wait, what's the secret ingredient to the mediocre chicken?

As opposed to other restraunts that try to imitate the chicken sandwhich? It would be the somewhat fruitful attempt to keep the raw chicken from intermingling with everything you immediately put in your mouth.

As opposed to your home-cooking? You probably season your chicken while they mix the egg wash with the tears of the workers harvested before they were strapped into the "My Pleasure" chair and forced to watch a marathon of bible-man until they were able to turn wine into subpar, overly sugared lemonade.

I mean, my goodness! Have you actually seen the sugar contents of their lemonade? It has 3-4 days worth of my recommended sugar intake in one cup. And that isn't an exaggeration!

Pretty rich complaining about people's behavior when you exhibit the same sort of behavior in every thread...

I think this thread topic is dumb, so everyone should just stop posting instead of me just moving on to other threads.

You can't take Chick-fil-a from me! The hate makes the chicken taste so much better! It's been the only acceptable chicken place since the Coon Chicken Inn closed down!

/s

(P.S. I am not linking to either chain. Chick-fil-a you guys should know, and the other one is not showing up in my search history. No, not gonna do it! You can do your own GIS!)

Amusingly, Church's Chicken (founded by George W. Church, Sr.) has had to clarify for international markets that they are not religiys, and in fact are Koshee and Halal compliant.

I'll stick with Raising Cane's.

I am kinda curious about Herbie Butcher's Fried Chicken. (Its vegetarian and just a local location)
