We were all tought in English classes to correct english. So if you choose not to hear something on a "message" board that you know you can correct to read better to yourself, if you have truely learned English like the rest of us, then you are not fooling anyone.

People that pick and choose what to hear and not to hear, arent on the grown folk's realistic level in life.

There are plenty of shitty places I just don't patronize, but I don't have any real conscientious boycotts that I can think of.

Taco Bell, after working there and seeing the shite that goes on in the back... there's just no coming nack.

Also, Perkins Rowe movie theater. It's the closest/most conveniently located in relation to my abode, but my god what a shithole it has become

The City of Birmingham (Alabama) public transit system because they are historically wishy-washy on their seating regulations.

Salt in India for some reason I don't really remember anymore.

In a way it is silly. She's pretty sensible otherwise, and never gets worked up about petty stuff. She respects other religions, but to her, society's move toward secularism is a big deal.

Funny thing is, she has a very real coffee/caffeine addiction, so she's in conflict.

I've never been to a Starbucks or Chick fil-a. No reason really other than it pisses people off when I tell them that.

But many,many stores say Happy Holidays now instead of Merry Christmas. I would say likely MOST major stores now actually.


So she doesn't shop at any of them?? I mean if you are gonna boycott one store for this issue...shouldn't you boycott all the other stores that do the same thing?

I boycotted the Subway in downtown Baton Rouge. I ordered a 6 inch BLT. The guy says when you add bacon it costs extra. I said I am not adding bacon it comes with bacon. Guy says sandwich has bacon and bacon costs extra. This went on for a couple of minutes. I said keep the sandwich.

You don't see that much here in mega-Catholic, mega-Christian Lafayette, so it hasn't gotten her attention much.

But nobody better mess with her coffee situation. FACT.

Not a store, per se, but will probably boycott letting my little girl use the restroom at any store with the LGBT policy - including Target and Barnes and Noble. I don't want some pedophile looking at her while claiming he identifies as a woman.

And I guess I silently boycott Starbucks after the CEO made all his statements about basically not wanting you as a customer if you hold any conservative values (paraphrasing big time). Their coffee sucks anyway. It's the McDonalds of coffee houses.

Sammy's, Prairieville location only. Service is fricking horrendous and their food isn't suitable for even a dog. No idea why that particular location is so terrible because the others I've been to aren't bad at all. I'm not expecting fine dining, I go for what it is. Location is good for me when I want a few beers and appetizers, but never again after 3 failed attempts in a row. frick them right in the arse
