New Yorker: Chick-fil-A Infiltrating Manhattan With 'Pervasive Christian Tradition
https://pjmedia.com/trending/new-yorker-...tionalism/

Quote:The New Yorker magazine has devoted most of its non-fiction energy these past two years to railing against President Trump. On Friday, writer Dan Piebenbring departed from that editorial directive to decry the public popularity of Chick-fil-A restaurants in New York City:

The new restaurant sounds like a doozy... The biggest in the world it includes a rooftop terrace and provides 200+ jobs.

Chick-Fil-A's ability to piss off degenerates makes me very happy.

Let those offended by the "pervasive Christian tradition" stay away so the rest of us can enjoy their incredible fast food and quality customer service. Why this restaurant chain ruffles feathers is beyond me. No one is forced to buy a chicken sandwich there. On their web site the word "Christian" or "Christianity" is not even mentioned:

Quote:Why We're Closed on Sundays

Our founder, Truett Cathy, made the decision to close on Sundays in 1946 when he opened his first restaurant in Hapeville, Georgia. Having worked seven days a week in restaurants open 24 hours, Truett saw the importance of closing on Sundays so that he and his employees could set aside one day to rest and worship if they choose - a practice we uphold today.

These people don't understand what that "pervasive Christian tradition" has done to help their lives and the world.

If this was Mohammed's Goat on a Stick, and to order you had to convert to Islam, women had to cover their heads and be beaten, they couldn't get in line quick enough.

I’m honestly curious who is the manager of that restaurant. Where are they from, what is their professional background, etc.

Or maaaaaaaaybe people just like Chick-fil-A's food and amazing customer service in the fast food industry.

That twitter handle is right.

Garbage journalism such as this is EXACTLY how Trump was elected.

Damn, that’s a freaking chik fila? Times gotta be pretty good for all that.

I’ll make a point to stop in and check it out next trip to NYC.

Might actually go to ours here later, on the way back from Lowe’s...

I've never seen a group so passionate about fast food...I don't eat there because it all tastes like pickle brine to me.

Lol right?

I love Chik-Fil-A. I don’t eat much fast food, but when I do, it’s there or Taco Bell. The only time I ever hear about liberal rage against it is on this board. Not sure I know a single person who is boycotting them or even saying anything bad about them.

Something this board seems to forget; all those donations to wack job organizations like the Family Research Council stopped. Gay marriage, the issue that started this whole controversy, is settled. They lost.

Yet every few months, one of these threads pop up, so everybody can post comments about how they are going to go to eat some Chik-Fil-A tonight. Like it’s just hurting liberals so much.

By all means, go eat friend chicken and waffle fries every meal. That will really teach us wacky liberals a lesson!

Dude the one here closed for a few weeks to remodel. Just re opened, the workers told me last night after making the joke you're well on the way to pay for the remodel that theyve made enough for at least 6 more remodels, cover pay for the staff while closed and still turn a profit. I rarely see a CFA that's not packed. I guess when the workers are hard working and trained right business is good vs various Burger Kings where they stand around and play grab ass.

I know right? some guy at the New Yorker was so passionate about fast food he wasted ink trying to run down a fast food chicken place.

Quote:I don't eat there because it all tastes like pickle brine to me.

Well, you're in the minority

Quote:To determine the most popular fast-food chain in each state, Foursquare looked at which chains received the most visits on average per location in every state based on the total number of visits to each chain divided by the number of locations in that state.

Good food, clean restaurants, and great service....

I disavow this map’s methodology. No way in hell is it accurate that Texans prefer in and out over Whataburger and Chic-fil-a.

Order with no pickles if you don't like pickles. Not Chic-fil-a's fault that you don't know how to order.
