You’ve been waiting for it all day, and here it is: your “Tuesday Fun Link.” Today’s link directs you to “Boycott McDonald’s,” an effort from some terrible thing called the American Family Association. Naturally, these people are not boycotting McDonald’s because they are starting diets — on the contrary, we assume they are all fat fucks who continue to patronize the likes of Wendy’s, Burger King, and “Sonic” on a daily basis. They are boycotting McDonald’s because of this: “It is about McDonald’s, as a corporation, refusing to remain neutral in the culture wars. McDonald’s has chosen not to remain neutral but to give the full weight of their corporation to promoting the homosexual agenda, including homosexual marriage.” And GUESS WHAT? This website has a comments section!!
Here are some of the best (this was NOT an easy culling process):
- “Sorry but my morals outweigh my appetite. It is so sad I can’t enjoy this eatery anymore. Please consider the MORALS and FAITH of what made this country great.”
- “McDonalds - as long as you are supporting the gay agenda my family of 5 will eat somewhere else.”
- “I am VERY disappointed that McDonalds has decided to openly support gay activists and so called “gay marriage”. Our family has been regular customers of McD for 30 years, but we are no longer. When we travel this summer we will be looking elsewhere for food -there are many alternatives.True Christians don’t hate Gays, they only desire to have them acknowledge their sinful lifestyle and and accept Jesus’ forgiveness! We are ALL sinners in need of Jesus’ foregiveness.”
- “When I travel I look for a McDonalds for breakfast now I’ll go to Bojangles”
- “I am 73, my wife is 70 - As much as we have enoyed the golden archers over the years, we will not continue to do so because of your close minded leadership.”
- “My wife, my six children, and I will not be supporting McDonald’s. I do not agree with McDonald’s, as a company, using their financial resources to promote a political issue instead of making fast food. If McDonald’s has money to give… then give more to charity…or help fight the spread of AIDS in Africa, etc., use McDonald’s resources to make a positive impact. I sure am going to miss the Southwest Salad, I was addicted.” [Notice that they all have at least six children -- Ed.]
- “It’s a sad thing when a company like McDonal’s cares more about supporting the gay life stle than Christian families. Well, they won’t get any more business from our family! From here to shining sea we won’t eat at another McDonalds!”
- “McDonald’s, You are suppose to be a family restaurant. I believe that it is inappropriate for you to speak for or against gay issues. Ronald should be neutral.”
- “Please read Genesis 19* God destroys Sodom and Gomorrah* Godly moral values has nothing to do with hate. This is about TRUTH. “The TRUTH will set you free”. GUARANTEED! Then please read 1st Timothy 1:9-11.”
- “I refuse to set foot in a McDonalds till they change their ways,my 7 grandkids said “we are going to Burger King “”
- McD’s, My family in which I grew up (yes, all 9 of us) loved your restaurant. In High School after the big game I couldn’t wait to get to McD’s. My family of 9, my wife and 7 children, will no longer go to your restaurant after your blatant disregard for what God says in His Word against the sinful lifestyle that you are choosing to promote. If you will reconsider, we may also. As for now, say goodbye to our business. Mike”
- “Gay rights? Gives a whole new meaning to “Happy Meal” doesn’t it? Now not only is McDonalds food bad for your health but it is bad for your morals too!!!! We won’t eat there again unless they change their policy.”
- “Have you read the bible? No more McDonald’s for me ever.”
- “I am informing all my children an gran children to Boycott Mcdonalds, that is a total of 22 people”
- “I wanted to leave a comment, but there is no way to type a comment in.”
[Boycott McDonalds]
Comments [Boycott McDonald's]
People: Time to Attack.
You apologize to Sonic, Jim Newell. You apologize right now.
But we all knew Ronald McDonald was gay, right?
I hate McDonalds but I’m going to buy some McNuggets tonight. Maybe the dog will eat them.
You can’t get your dick sucked at Bojangles.
Oh, wait. You can. nevermind.
Ronald should be neutral.
Run, Ronald, run!
Boy, oh, boy, wouldn’t a Big Mac go down well right about now. With a big side of those disgustingly phallic french fries.
So are they renaming the Fun Meal to the Gay Meal? And what is with all the kids these McDonald eaters are having. Just what is in that special sauce anyway?
Oh come on. Ronald McDonald wears makeup for fuck’s sake. We’ve always known he pitched for the pink team.
Stupid fundies. Wait till they find out that Burger King was originally called Bugger King, Wendy’s was actually born as Willie, and you don’t want to know what Sonic uses in their “milkshakes.”
So this is why my ass hurts after a Big Mac. If someone has the time to do it, please fax me a copy of the gay agenda. They forgot to put mine in the bag with the food. Thanks!
You know when someone references “America the Beautiful” in an inane comment on a Jesus site that they are a True Patriot.
The Soviets are putting Gay into our Water!!!!
What a sad bunch of closeted, obese homos.
I just hate when people and institutions are so “close minded” as to be open and accepting of all its customers’ lifestyles.
Godless Liberal *: Sonic is like this fantasy to me because they play the commercials all the time in LA but I have never seen one. It’s mental torture.
I blame the gays for this.
If you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the comments, you’ll see at least one person who listed their e-mail address…
A corporation should promote solid Chris-chun values, like wearing makeup and enticing children to come play in your “play place” and to taste your meat.
You know: good-ol altar boy-lovin’, toe-tappin’, homo-beatin’ GOP values.
Here in California, the state gummint is poised to become the first in the nation to ban restaurants and other food facilities from using trans fats. But the question is, will this hurt the McDonalds boycott and will trans fatties and femmes such as the American Family Association (and other culture war heroes) also be banned? Oh no!!
My favorite comment: “YUCK !…I’ve eaten my last BIG MAC !…….”
Yuck? Not because it’s a Big Mac … but why? They pound the meat with gay dicks? Huh?
So, according to one comment, the Bible doesn’t want people to eat at McDonald’s? Well, I actually agree with that…
“Ronald should be neutral.”
Ronald McDonald is quite clearly an assclown.
medievalist:
Of course Ronald is gay… just watch a video for him playing “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” if you harbor any doubts.
well, looks like im going to McDonald’s for Lunch this entire week. If I can just piss off one Christian, than I did my part for the day.
VIVA RONALD-LUTION!!!!
WON’T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!
Mock not Sonic’s! Burgers, fries and Route 44 strawberry slushies all served by jailbait on roller skates with short shorts! You can’t get more American than that!
Oh, and if it’s a “culture war,” does that mean I get to shoot them?
Oh well, they’ll always have Cracker Barrel.
Well, if they’re not going to McDonald’s, they should go eat some Dick’s http://www.ddir.com/
tunamelt: The bastards do it in DC too…nearest Sonic to me is 60 miles…
Mainly because I can’t be bothered reading about it, how exactly is McDonald’s supporting the gay agenda anyway? Free fries with every gay marriage promotion or something?
“In High School after the big game I couldn’t wait to get to McD’s.”
Dude, if a trip to McDonald’s is the highlight of your day, it’s time to kill yourself.
You’re leaving the archers for the Jeebus. But you’ll be back for the grease, gluttons.
Worst. Political. Activism. Web. Site. Ever.
“Well, they won’t get any more business from our family! From here to shining sea we won’t eat at another McDonalds!”
This is gold, pure and simple.
When I was 4, Ronald touched me in my special area.
Meh, not to worry, they’ll all be dead tomorrow from a collective
coronary~and we’ll all still be gay!
tunamelt: It’s the same way in NYC. But don’t worry, I tried it in the midwest and like all fast-food chains, it tastes like burnt tree bark.
Peter, didn’t I see you eating a big mac?
-no!
Really? It looked like a big mac…
-It was from burger king.
You had a mcdonald’s wrapper in your hand
-It wasn’t me.
Canmon (the Inadequate): Pretty much.
Delicious: At least your area was special … my was touched so much it was just an “area.”
medievalist:
Actually, look closer. He’s a woman…or a transgender.
I chuckle when people call McDonald’s a restaurant.
Wait until they find out that Burger King is Muslim and Wendy is a lesbian.
sp/: mine
Whiskeybaby: Amen. This would seem to be a more effective threat if anyone knew where “here” is.
tunamelt: Sort of like me and In N Out, only with a less sexy name. I see commercials for them all the time, but I have never seen one in my whole life. All I hear is the tales of those brave pioneers who returned from out west, and how wonderful it is, and it makes me all the sadder.
Did anyone try to leave a comment? That site is like a comment-eating jungle.
Delicious: Did he leave a grease spot? (Sorry, I had to)
Uncle Al: Exactly. Note how they said “big” game, not just practice, or games. Nono, this was an event, something to buy a corsage for.
Whiskeybaby: It really is…If we showed that person the “other” sea, would their head explode? Let’s find out.
This wouldn’t be so bad if these idiots could at least admit that they are homophobic sacks of shit, instead of the old “we hate the act” “it’s a sin” “repent” garbage.
Here’s a link to the Bojangles website, which btw features gospel music: http://www.bojangles.com/promotions_music.html
“Ronald should be neutral.”
I always thought he should be neutered but whatever.
These people need to take the money they save not eating at McD’s and spend it on condoms.
Guppy06: Oh, and if it’s a “culture war,” does that mean I get to shoot them?
Naw, it’s not one of those good wars.
Just like when my granduncle went to jail for shooting at the homeless back in 1965. Stupid misnamed War on Poverty.
teh_heysoos: So you’re saying we should pay some attention to kfstarnes@sbcglobal.net, “concerned mom”?
WHEN AD CAMPAIGNS GO WRONG:
“Food Folks and Assfucking”
“Bada ba ba Bonor.”
“I’m lovin’ him.”
“Do you believe in Magic, buttsecks?”
“Did somebody say salad tossing?”
“Its what we eat and who we fuck.”
Whiskeybaby: From McDonalds’ inflammatory letter (or should we call it a manifesto?):
“We treat our employees and our customers with respect and dignity, regardless of their ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexual orientation or other factors.”
Can you believe that?! It’s practically written in the blood of innocents.
Cripes if they’re unhappy with the gay clown, wait until they wake up with that freak with the King Mask in their bed!
tunamelt:
wait…i’m in nj and see those ads all the time, but i’ve
never seen a sonic either.
do they really exist? are you sure they’re not gay?
They’re just assuming McDonald’s is pro-gay because of their obviously gay frontman, Grimace. Kind of like Fox News with Shep Smith.
from here to shining sea i will drive through every mcdonalds and buy a pie and a shake and an extra large fry just to thank them for supporting the gay lifestyle and pissing off the fundies
tunamelt:
Welcome to the jungle
We got fun ‘n’ games
We got everything you want
Honey we know the names
We are the people that can find
Whatever you may need
If you got the money honey
We got your disease
Thanks. Now I have visions of reproducing fundies appearing in my mind with Guns N Roses as a sound track.
i love that these dickbags are weighing their “morals” against stuffing their inbred faces with fried animal carcass.
I’ve been trying to leave a comment here but I keep laughing too hard.
Alright, I’m re-scheduling my evening commute tonight to make sure I hit up McDonalds.
I am informing all my children an gran children to Boycott Mcdonalds, that is a total of 22 people”
Jesus Christ, this is the freakin personification of the opening 20 minutes of Idiocracy. …
Quick Wonketeers, start breeding. The future depends on it!
I always wondered what was in their milkshakes that made them so good.
Truculent: Gay Agenda Go Nuts (as it were).
fried animal carcass they’ll glad inhale at another non-fag food establishment.
ForTheTurnstiles: Probably hasn’t has much attention paid to her in a loooooooong time if this is what she worries about all day.
Bojangles? THAT’S NOT RACIAL TRANSCENDENCE!
tunamelt: Same goes for New York, actually! Which is weird, because they keep running these vaguely hipster mumblecore commercials that seem designed for Brooklyn.
Who else wants to pool all our money and open a chain of God-Hates-Fags Burger’s? If this website is any indication, there is a huge market for it (assuming that each post on that site reflects one family, and each family is composed of about 17 people, and each person in each family eats the amount of burgers of roughly 6 average persons).
ForTheTurnstiles: What you do with that e-mail address is entirely up to you…but, she posted it…
If I had a family of 5, and I was commenting on a Christian gay-bashing web site about how I’d no longer be able to take them to McDonald’s for dinner, I think I’d have to shoot myself.
Two all-beef cakes, special “sauce”, poppers, condoms, KY, disco on a rice queen’s bun…
I haven’t set foot in a McDonald’s for like, twenty years
and even then just to pee, I think I’ll go back to peeing there
exclusivly
Whiskeybaby: Here’s what’s got them all wound up
“The American Family Association is furious at the fast food chain for promoting “the homosexual agenda” by refusing to condemn McDonald’s Vice President of Communications Richard Ellis’ decision to serve on the Board of Directors of the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC).
As a corporate sponsor, McDonald’s donated $20,000 to the acclaimed business group that works to put gay business owners in touch with large corporations.”

How DARE they.
Keram2: teh_heysoos: Evil!
Godless Liberal *: Oh, In-N-Out is freaking amazing. It’s a religious experience, right down to the Bible quotes underneath the cups. But even better is Fatburger, aka In-N-Out for black people.
Tonight only at McD’s - Tossed Salads, 2 for 1.
And they’ll be sharing the recipe for secret sauce.
oh yeah, and the Fry Guys are gonna gang-bang Mayor McCheese.
If they spent more time reading books and less time breeding, then they’d probably all die from head injuries, which is what God would have wanted.
Not only does McDonalds refuse to remain neutral in the culture wars - so that American Families and Republican Homosexual Congressman can make our Internets and The Google safe for democracy someday - but McDonalds also refuses to remain neutral in the gender war, the race war and the disabilities war? Or that McDonalds has a BLOG?!! http://csr.blogs.mcdonalds.com/ and http://www.mcdonalds.com/corp/values/people/diversity.html
YUK! and double-YUKKY!!
Can we please put a special punitive task on anyone who has more than three kids in their life? I mean, sure, the world needs more ditch diggers, but we have Mexicans dig our ditches, so what’s with all the breeding?
JeffGoldblum: We’d rule the Oklahoma fast-food scene!
I call bullshit. If these people have kids they will be buying the kids meal in less than a week when little Joshua and Mary ask them why they aren’t going to McDonalds anymore.
“Well honey, it’s because they support gay people.”
“What are gay people daddy?”
“Well, that’s when a man loves another man.”
“You mean like Jesus loves you daddy?”
“Well, ummm, no…not like that.”
“Well then how.”
“Ah…forget it, who wants fries and who wants apples with their happy meal?”
John “Noob” McCain:
“I wanted to leave a comment, but there is no way to type a comment in.”
Please consider the MORALS and FAITH of what made this country great.
Slavery and genocide?
It’s a sad thing when a company like McDonal’s cares more about supporting the gay life stle than Christian families
Chick-Fil-A will be more than happy to take your business. And your family might even drop a few pounds because the have the lowest calories fast food in the business.
I haven’t been this conflicted about picking a side since the Scientologists had a beef with the Germans.
I submitted this comment:
“Does this mean I have to stop cruising for sex in their bathrooms?”
If any of MacDonald’s army of IP lawyers is reading this, the “Boycott MacDonald’s” people are using your “M” logo, I assume without your consent. Unleash the hounds.
JeffGoldblum: Those seem like pretty reasonable estimates. I’m in.
jagorev: “punitive task”? it’s spelled TAX, you stupid obese breeder person.
FunkyPalmettoBug: Winner!
Their milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard…
Ooooh, looky:
“McDonald’s is only one in a long line of companies that have been targeted by the AFA. They’ve already boycotted Sears, Kohl’s, Kmart, Target, Old Navy and IKEA, citing the company’s support of “the homosexual agenda.”
So where can these brave Americans go to buy Twinkies, Bud Light, and Q-tips all in one place? (Where would Jesus shop?)
Grease….lube….makes sense to me…
For the uninitiated, a Sonic locater:
http://www.sonicdrivein.com/locator/viewSearch.do
If the burgers aren’t your thing, they got hot dogs and chicken (along with lefty elitist salads and such). They’ve got half-priced drinks in the afternoon, drinks that range from frozen fruit slushes to add-your-own-flavor sodas, onion rings from actual onions rather than those perversely uniform things that BK sells, sell breakfast all day, dispense ice cream in unconscionably large sizes, and the aforementioned, jailbait, skates and shorts.
RONALD AND EVE NOT BIG MAC AND STEVE!!!
But seriously, I’ve been boycotting McDonald’s for years because everyone else makes better food (although I break for Shamrock Shakes).
BobLoblawLawBlog: Don’t even get me started on the Buttburglar.
You forgot to include this gem:
“Even my gay friends admit that investing in a cause is not neutrality. You have become a standard bearer for one viewpoint.”
As you can see, using the “My best friend is black” tactic proves equally effective here.
itgetter: Ikea? Nothing says “gay” like allen wrenches.
AfghanVet: Man, it’s been a while, but I’m pretty sure McDonald’s doesn’t serve apples — unless said apples are deep-fried, salted to all hell, and picked off the dead carcass of an inbred cow at a high-density feed-lot.
Delicious.
Guppy06: None in Los Angeles. Nearest Sonic to LA is in Anaheim behind the Orange Curtain, second nearest is in Victorville, also known as the desert.
But there are like ten in Bakersfield. WTF?
They obviously have never set foot in a GAP, Bananna Republic or Crate & Barrel.
>>So where can these brave Americans go to buy Twinkies, Bud Light, and Q-tips all in one place?
Dunno, lol.
