Tweet of the Day, This This Chick-fil-A Picture Should Surprise Nobody edition.

Note: that line is for the NYC Chick-fil-A opening tomorrow.

On the other hand; just wait until they find out that no, it’s never going to be open on Sunday.  And there’s nothing anybody can ever do about that.  And yes, it hurts us all. It hurts us all sorely.

PS: Do I dare hope that somebody will attempt to engage in Chick-fil-A Trooferism?

  1. Well to be fair, Chick-fil-A usually offers a free year’s worth of meals to the first x number of folks through the door, so there’s always a line when they open.

    1. And the SJWs are howling mad that Chick-fil-a is insisting on proof of residence to win free meals for a year.
      Because the homeless by definition don’t have it, have got nothing better to do than camp out for a few days, and by golly, if they had food, they wouldn’t have to beg. It’s discrimination!

  2. What would “Chik-fil-A trooferism” look like? I mean, the derangement over a restaurant chain is already pretty severe…

    1. Chick-fil-A is a government conspiracy to fill our stomachs with GMO chicken and mind control waves broadcast from tiny antennas hidden inside each waffle fry.

      What?
      Why *else* would they be shaped like that?

    1. I don’t get the cachet of In-N-Out. They opened several of them here in Dallas a few years ago, and it’s just another place with a decent burger.

      1. It depends on what your idea of the perfect burger is.

        If your idea of the perfect car is a Lotus Cortina, or maybe an early Miata, then In-N-Out’s your burger.

        If your idea of the perfect car is a Pantera, or a Mercedes SLR, then you’re a Five Guys guy.

        And if your idea of the perfect car is the one your parents had when you were six, then you line up for the Two Cheeseburgers meal at McDonalds.

        I go through phases of all of this. Though, for those occasions when I’m looking for something kinky, with all those butt-slapping jalapenos, the closest fast-food here is Carls Jr.

        1. Interesting, you’ve combined a downright “Top Gear” disdain for U.S. automobiles with american fast food .. although you did miss a few important ones…
          .
          I gotta disagree on Five Guys .. it’s more like a Plymouth Prowler or current Dodge Challenger.. it has hot, fast styling, and some power, but doesn’t match the SLR on the track.
          .
          Burgerville (pacific northwest) if you have fond memories of your parents’ ’77 Buick Regal, but would prefer to buy a current one. (also, their milkshakes are the best of any fast food chain)
          .
          Portillos (Chicago, select other markets) if you like the Mercedes SLR but think it’s a little small – especially if, on some days, you’d rather drive a Fiat Abarth.
          .
          Culvers (Wisconsin, some in Chicago market) if you liked your parents’ Buick .. and it was a Grand National …
          .
          White Castle (nationwide) if your lifestyle choices leave you with limited budget and food cravings at 2:00am .. this would be the used Chevy Citation of burgers .. basic transportation, but ugh!

          .
          Kuma’s (Chicago) .. if you enjoy your music loud, your burgers deliciously flavorful, your wait staff heavily pierced and tattooed, and with a good selection of beers. This .. is just good.

          1. Actually, Culver’s has made it at least as far as Idaho. We’ve got one in Twin Falls.
            .
            If you’re talking about Midwest burger joints, the conversation pretty much has to start with Steak ‘n Shake.
            .
            In-and-Out is massively overhyped in the way only California things can be. Their burgers are OK at best, and their fries suck.
            .
            White Castle’s evil southern twin is Krystal. They serve sliders you don’t have to be stoned or drunk to crave.
            .
            Checkers/Rally’s is a classic.
            .
            Smashburger is pretty darned tasty.
            .
            But the best burgers almost always come from little joints that only have a single location. (And if they serve Brew City Fries fried up in actual beef tallow, you might be tempted to skip the burger.)

  4. Didn’t have a reply button on the entry, but
    Luke: You’re absolutely correct on the beef tallow. That is SO much better than veggie oil (or the 10w30 ajima used to make the yakimandu).

    1. Continuing .. yes, beef tallow, unless you can get rendered duck fat, is the best ..
      .
      Personally, I prefer crinkle-cut fries, although the Five Guys fresh-cut spuds are also nice.
      .
      In-n-Out is, of course, over-hyped. If the benchmark is to McDonalds or Burger King .. it’s much better.
      .
      I’d put In-n-Out on par with Burgerville, and a bit below Culvers.
      .
      Then, there’s Boston Blackie’s ..

      1. Culver’s is definitely better than In-N-Out, and it’s one of the few things about Minnesota that I miss. At least I have Carl’s Jr., Farmer Boys, and the Heart Attack Grill to console me while I’m here in Vegas.

        1. Also, next year we’ll have a Chick-Fil-A in the area (not in Las Vegas, though, because of the Sunday thing) so I won’t have to drive to Utah for my Spicy Chicken Sandwich fix.
