It’s not often enough that the universe throws us a story about a corporation suffering under the heel of delicious irony. I am happy to report that today, it has done so.
Winning enough Chick-fil-A® chicken sandwiches, iced tea, and medium Classic Sides to fill a man’s grave is easy. All you have to do is line up on the sidewalk for three hours with 300 people while the lead-colored sky bleeds into black night; while stinging rain, flung down from heaven by an angry God and then up,…
Chick-fil-A, the homophobic purveyor of chicken sandwiches, is opening its first location in New York City at the glamorous corner of W. 38th Street and 6th Avenue. In honor of the occasion, the chain is giving 100 adults free food for one whole year.
This is a really good day for batshit headlines.
Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson recently found himself suspended from filming the massively popular reality show for saying shitty things about gay people in an interview with GQ (and, uh, a lot of other times, turns out). Now, the mouth-breathing dinosaur-minded morons who support him are staging a protest at Chick…
Proud purveyor of bigoted chicken Dan Cathy, President of Chick-fil-A, has, like a popular high school kid unwilling to admit that, yes, he in fact does play Magic the Gathering after school at Rory Totboder's house, apparently gone back on his company's promise not to donate any more money to anti-gay groups. This,…
Today, Chick-fil-A's famously homophobic owners released a statement announcing that the fast food chain would no longer be donating money to anti-gay groups. Victory, right? We totally win, right?! Not really. Regardless of whether the Chick-fil-A brass are contributing to a camp that uses Jesus to turn homos into…
Equally Wed, a lesbian and gay wedding magazine, wants gay marriage advocates to buy as many frappuccinos as their insulin levels can handle on Tuesday in honor of National Marriage Equality Day, aka The Event Formerly Known As Starbucks Appreciation Day.
Only in America could battered, fried, poultry engender so many strong feelings. I mean, a rover is about to land and poke around on the surface of Mars, but there is an alarmingly significant segment of our population that has lost more sleep on being morally conflicted about whether or not tomorrow is the day…
If you're like me, you're probably pretty mad at Chick-Fil-A for being a bunch of bigoted medieval anti-gay dickheads. And rightfully so. I mean, what geological epoch is this? What kind of a fucking petrified, exhumed garbage pharaoh do you have to be to maintain the drive and energy to hate gay people in 2012—let…
In this edition of Tweet Beat, Renee and Scott Baio can't get enough crispy bigotry, Questlove is tweeting Amsterdam, Mindy Kaling knows that "Firework" is a great song and please, please stop throwing popcorn at the monkeys.
Bigots in New Hampshire are going to have to find a way to support limited rights fer the queerz — the manager of the state's only Chick-fil-A has announced that unlike his parent company's CEO, he's just fine with gay people. So fine, in fact, that he'll continue to be a sponsor the state's gay pride festival so all…
A Colorado pastor named Kevin Swanson had a conniption fit on his radio show Generations with Vision last Friday about the Muppets breaking ties with Chick-fil-A, again demonstrating that some fundamentalist Christians are more comfortable having dialogues with imaginary creatures than with real people.
CNN apologized on Sunday for playing Pink's "Stupid Girls" during a segment about former Alaskan governor and ineffable presence on John McCain's campaign pins Sarah Palin proudly visiting a Chick-fil-A with her husband Todd. Palin tweeted a picture in which she and Todd are hoisting their sacks of fried chicken up to…
Chick-fil-A's vice president of public relations, Don Perry, died today of a heart attack. He had been with the company for 29 years. The company hasn't released a statement explaining why or how he died (and it's highly unlikely a rep will ever say "due to dealing with our massive marketing crisis"), but now the…
Amid the storm of shit that is currently raining down on the fire-engine red signs of Chick-fil-A, the homophobic purveyor of fried chicken is now facing allegations of gender discrimination. According to GLAAD, former Chick-fil-A employee Brenda Honeycutt is suing the restaurant chain for wrongful termination…
In a statement released today via its Facebook page, Chick-fil-A has made it clear that while it stands behind the anti-gay statements president Dan Cathy made earlier this week, the company is going to "leave the policy debate over same-sex marriage to the government and political arena." Reiterating that the company…
The head of Chick-fil-A confirmed yesterday what liberal worrywarts have been warning oblivious sandwich eaters about for years: he really can't stand the homos. That's bad news, if you're a Chick-fil-A connoisseur — the delicious deep fried poultry treat you've been putting in your face all these years is not only…
Drag queens. Wilson Phillips. Sticking it to the famously homophobic Chick-Fil-A. This video is objectively perfect.
