This comes under the heading of embarrassing, but funny enough to post. Back at the beginning of October, I got in a fight on Twitter with this dumb bitch who took issue with me calling out Chick-Fil-A for being a company run by hateful asshats. I posted this to twitter:
I'm not into politics, really, but I do think it's a shame when companies use their fat wads of cash to screw over regular folks (through buying legislation or supporting hate groups or whatever else - it's all the same to me). So I mentioned it. Chick-Fil-A had just opened a Hollywood location and I wanted to try their food again (it was probably 1994 last time I ate there). No big deal. I mean, plenty of people still shop at Target, right?
Anyway, on the morning of the 2nd, after coming out of Bootie, I saw that someone had replied to my Chick-Fil-A post. Below is the whole stupid story. I don't even want to write any more till you've read it.
It's weird - I haven't given this whole Netflix debacle much thought, but it's definitely been percolating in the back of my mind. I was on tour when they announced the price hike and had one of the high-hike accounts - 2 DVD + streaming. I didn't think much of it because my account was on hold. (did you know you could do that? Did you know that, mysteriously, you can only do it for 2 months before they automatically un-hold you?) My account came magically back into "we're charging you now" land not that long before I got home, which made me think about the situation briefly again.
