I'll have you know I got into an argument with my wife about eating at a restaurant chain Yard House. It's on my boycott list and that means I can't go, not even once, not even because you want to honey. I don't care how good a time we had the first time we went, it's a boycott!

It was easy to cut coke out of my life, although I will miss Fresca and sprite, the only sodas I ever drink that isn't tonic water.

We're not all slacktivists! I took one for team MAGA with that Yard House row!

Now, how the hell am I supposed to fly when every single airline has offended my sense of liberty? Donald Trump! Make a damn airline already!

Can you share your list? As a pede who gave up their favorite burger joint (as soon as they offered milkshakes to radicals) and never looked back, I'm with you.

(If fast food burgers are your thing.)

Wendy's is the least liberal burger joint. (Their public representation is always bitingly sarcastic and yet never political, and in the wake of St. Floyd the Wendy's PR team was radio silent about BLM when so many, many brands bent a knee. Wendy's has also never gone all rainbow-colored for Alphabet People day/week/month when so many many brands find that in that special time they will go "gay for pay" and make everything about homos).

After that probably IN-N-Out Burger for printing bible verses on their drink cups despite being a chain from the land of Sodom and Gomorrah.

McDonald's and BK are woke AF and I'm not eating there ever again.

If you like good burgers and you don't mind waiting for proper food, California chain Fat Burger beats the pants off of IN-N-Out and my ultimate favorite is Wayback Burgers. Of course I have lots of local burger joints that you probably can't eat at because the odds you live where I live are pretty low.

I avoid Shake Shack on the principle that they are a New York chain and the only good thing that has ever come out of New York is an orange-skinned blonde hotel tycoon. Also, their food sucked for how expensive it was - an authentic New York City experience!

Wayback is indeed awesome!

Thanks for the tip on Wendy's, I knew they are at least somewhat pro-family since they advocate for adoption thanks to their founder (RIP) but didn't know about their radio silence on BLM and the other nonsense. I'm no where near the west coast so no In-N-Out for me.

I've found that local pizza places normally make excellent burgers, but they take a while to make and sometimes you're on the road or need something quick. Thanks again for the tips.
