Boycott McDonald’s Idiots To Boycott Hallmark Now

by Jim Newell  5:05 pm August 22, 2008

I wanted to leave an alt-text, but there was nowhere to type an alt-text inTree-destroying imperial corporation Hallmark recently decided to start selling same-sex wedding cards, because that’s something you can do in all of two (2) states now. In other words, the Hallmark company has just literally taken a piss on Jesus Christ’s tomb thingy. And guess who’s upset, yes, that’s correct, the mouth-breathing Fundies at the American Family Association, whose recent “Boycott McDonald’s” initiative produced some of the finest comedy in the history of the Internet. They have a petition site up now directed at Hallmark. “BoycottHallmark.com” doesn’t currently exist, but the AFA has bought the domain name and when it launches, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GOD let there be a comments section.

I always knew the McRib was a homosexual gay plot.

freakishlystrong August 22, 2008 at 5:10 pm

So, fat people won’t be sending cheesy get well cards for the cardiac arrests then?

shortsshortsshorts August 22, 2008 at 5:10 pm

Gewd fer dem. I all ways knuu those Hallmark cards wer totolie gay!

AnnieGetYourFun August 22, 2008 at 5:12 pm

I don’t eat at McDonald’s or shop at Hallmark – does this mean I have to start? I don’t like burgers or Precious Moments figurines, but if I can help promote the homosexual gay agenda by making out with 16-year old McDonald’s employees, then, I feel I will have done my part.

TGY August 22, 2008 at 5:12 pm

AhAHAHahahA, Hallmark. BWahahAHahAHahaaa. I tell you, once corporate America understands how much money there is to be made out of this, same-sex marriage legislation with go through lickety-split (or whatever) in all states.

And then there’s divorce.

BillyClubb August 22, 2008 at 5:15 pm

“when you care enough to send the very best.” But promoting same-sex marriage for profit is not the very best for families or our nation.
Larry Craig will be so disappointed, as will Ted Haggard, and so many other Republicans.

tonashideska August 22, 2008 at 5:16 pm

The reception for the

LIEBERMAN/GRAHAM
wedding

is in the Tiki Room.

tunamelt August 22, 2008 at 5:16 pm

Oh my God, but how can they boycott these cards. I feel like they are the key demo for this.

Larry Fine August 22, 2008 at 5:16 pm

In those same sex marrigae things, isn’t one person the man and one the woman anyway?

loudmouthredhead August 22, 2008 at 5:18 pm

Please, PLEASE let someone on the site leave their real address again so we can send them a few of these cards.

[re=66882]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Did you see Hallmark’s new Precious Moments line, including the classic “First Reach-Around”?

freakishlystrong August 22, 2008 at 5:19 pm

[re=66882]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Or perhaps, have a precious moment with a hallmark lady person…

AngryBlakGuy August 22, 2008 at 5:19 pm

…just like the Christian right; homosexuality should never be presented, spoken of or addressed in modern society! Instead it should be ignored until your pastor is caught having sex with 3 men while snorting meth out of the butt crack of your 13 year choir boy son!

loudmouthredhead August 22, 2008 at 5:20 pm

[re=66888]tunamelt[/re]: They only start the “flopping” once you’ve been fat AND lost it…most of the boycotters haven’t reached that crucial second stage.

Dave J. August 22, 2008 at 5:20 pm

Next up, they will boycott the Unisex Pinpoint Oxford Shirt, for making them feel confused about things.

pinko-commie August 22, 2008 at 5:21 pm

Does Hallmark make any cards for commitment-free same-sex rendezvous in airport bathrooms?

loudmouthredhead August 22, 2008 at 5:22 pm

[re=66896]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: Imagine the condolence card made for THAT…

KevoTron August 22, 2008 at 5:22 pm

“But promoting same-sex marriage for profit is not the very best for families or our nation.”

By this logic Hallmark also promotes illness, death and miscellaneous sad times. Fucking sick perverts.

[re=66883]TGY[/re]: Didn’t you hear? This whole gay agenda same-sex marriage thing is really just a trumped up way for divorce lawyers to make a buck. Conservative blog commenters told me and it is true.

Bloomberg says WSJ says Tim Kaine is Barack Obama’s VP.

[re=66882]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: I can’t wait for all the sexy new valentine’s day cards. Why go on one date when you can send a nice greeting card invite to a good ol’ buttsex party?

trophy(forparticipation)wife August 22, 2008 at 5:28 pm

hoax email, I think. I give up.

AnnieGetYourFun August 22, 2008 at 5:29 pm

[re=66909]trophy(forparticipation)wife[/re]: Don’t DO that.

loudmouthredhead August 22, 2008 at 5:29 pm

[re=66904]trophy(forparticipation)wife[/re]: Obama names Tim Kaine as new mate – gay card I just received.

Darehead August 22, 2008 at 5:29 pm

If you go to the homepage of American Family Association, sponsoring this boycott, and follow the links to “healing from sexual sin and homosexuality,” you’ll find links such orgs as “Americans for Truth.” Once you pass page 2, you can almost feel the fundies beating off. So graphic, I can’t give link.

shortsshortsshorts August 22, 2008 at 5:29 pm

[re=66899]Dave J.[/re]: They should also boycott rainbows because rainbows were put here by Satan to deceive us.

[re=66896]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: Dear ____________, please accept this McDonald’s gift certificate in sincere apologies for what you thought you saw, when in fact it was just nude wrestling practice with your son serving as referee, we do not have the buttsecks because we are republicans.

Sincerely,
Cletus.

trophy(forparticipation)wife August 22, 2008 at 5:31 pm

[re=66910]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Sorry mami.

Dave J. August 22, 2008 at 5:33 pm

Next up, they will boycott teddy bears, because, just think about it, America. Teddy=Kennedy, and bears=Andrew Sullivan.

greatgooglymoogly August 22, 2008 at 5:34 pm

And the work never ceases. This is sad/hilarious: http://www.businessreform.com/article.php?articleID=11076&ofid=2. Apparently, Exxon, Radio Shack and Perot Systems (among others) still hate the gays, thank goodness.

Outstando August 22, 2008 at 5:35 pm

It’s so un-American to boycott gay-loving McDonald’s and Hallmark. What are they going to boycott next, porn? Moving to fucking Russia you freaks.

LittlePig August 22, 2008 at 5:39 pm

[re=66883]TGY[/re]: ‘lickety-split’ would be the lesbian marriages. ‘fast as greased lightning’ would be the male version.

tunamelt August 22, 2008 at 5:39 pm

[re=66913]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Goddammit, I always knew there was something funny about Skittles, and that Lucky Charms leprechaun, too.

shortsshortsshorts August 22, 2008 at 5:40 pm

[re=66920]Outstando[/re]: They should probably boycott their churches….. *hint hint*

Dave J. August 22, 2008 at 5:41 pm

[re=66920]Outstando[/re]: They definitely boycott gay porn. They usually have to watch the DVDs 15-20 times each to make sure they are as bad as they had heard.

BayhSexual August 22, 2008 at 5:41 pm

[re=66908]NotUrEvryDayWEzl[/re]: ooooh buttsex parties! but we have to go get sum mcnuggits furst.

When will these fine Americans understand that COMMERCE trumps MORALS any day of the week?

Welcome to consumer nation. Get in line.

sanantonerose August 22, 2008 at 5:47 pm

I’ll bet the same-sex cards are funnier and sport better designs. The gays get all the good stuff!

I’m seeing a pattern.

shortsshortsshorts August 22, 2008 at 5:49 pm

[re=66930]sanantonerose[/re]: They are much better shoppers.

Volumptuous August 22, 2008 at 5:51 pm

They should also boycott John McCain. AbbA is the gayest band ever.

AngryBlakGuy August 22, 2008 at 5:52 pm

[re=66916]freakishlystrong[/re]: …hehe, P.S. May I suggest the Big Mac, that special sauce is finger licking good!

[re=66901]loudmouthredhead[/re]: …maybe you can bring their son a gift instead?

pinko-commie August 22, 2008 at 5:55 pm

[re=66919]greatgooglymoogly[/re]: That list of the anti-gay companies is so funny. My favorite is:

“6. Shaw Industries Inc. (a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.)

Industry: Textile manufacturing

Why We Picked Them: They’ve done nothing, to the best of our knowledge, to support the GLBT cause in any significant way.”

Ooooooh, but what is Shaw Industries Inc. doing secretly that they aren’t telling you? Don’t ask, don’t tell.

WhatTheHeck August 22, 2008 at 5:56 pm

So that’s why tropical storm Fay is hanging around Florida.
God is upset with Hallmark and wants to drown some people in Florida..

I hear when the authorities checked the Madrid airline crash, they found
a Hallmark same-sex card amongst the charred remains.

Now it makes sense to me. Gay people get god so pissed off all the time
that he mobilizes his minions to boycotting action.

trophy(forparticipation)wife August 22, 2008 at 5:59 pm

I can’t wait for the ads on the Hallmark Channel.

The boy named Joyce started the empire.

Joyce C. Hall was a preacher’s son, named for a bishop in his father’s church, one Isaac Joyce.

[re=66889]Larry Fine[/re]: It depends on the day of the week. Good couples alternate. Sundays are, of course, the Day of Rest, generally spent feasting on the McEucharist under the Smiling Visage of the Clown and Pearly Ga — um, Golden Arches.

Texan Bulldoggette August 22, 2008 at 7:00 pm

[re=66887]tonashideska[/re]: Don’t you think that should be Crist/Graham? I mean Joey does have a Mrs., but in Lyndsey & Charlie, you have two free-wheeling bachelors who’ve been looking for Mrs. Right for about 30 years now. And seriously, if Joe can get a woman to look at him naked, I’m sure Lyndsey & Charlie could have if they really tried.

[re=66900]pinko-commie[/re]: Yes. It’s the toe-toe, cheek-to-cheek, double reach-around series designed by GWB’s personal pastor Ted Haggard, with help from Beelzebub and the RNC “Big Tent” committee (Bob Allen, Chairman, so to speak).

gliberal August 22, 2008 at 9:05 pm

These will go on the card rack right next to “Good luck with your colonoscopy” and “Heard you’re a hooker!”

Clerical point of order! To the fundies, it’s OK to piss on Jesus’ grave. After a three-day waiting period under Roman Law, Jesus is no longer there.
