Give McDonald's a Break Today

 Yet another American company is under a boycott threat as the wokesters have made McDonald's the target of their jihad.  NBC reported: 

McDonald’s faces a national boycott in response to its January announcement that it would dial back some of its diversity equity and inclusion programs for employees.

The grassroots progressive group The People’s Union USA, has called for an “economic blackout” of the fast-food giant starting Tuesday. The group also helped organize boycotts of other major retailers this year, including Target and Walmart, for their retreat on DEI policies.  Article

So make the pantywaists made and go get a happy meal.  Don't like the chicken nuggets? Your dog does.  Go through the drive-thru and get some for schnookems.   Get the kids some sundaes.  Show the Golden Arches some love. 

Well that's interesting.  Apple's autocorrect automatically capitalized "Golden Arches."

Yall are some very non-serious people.

I have been boycotting since June 17 2024. I fell in the Southaven Mcdonald's on greasy floors and broke my wrist. No more for me.

I haven’t been there since June 1982. I was in Gallop, NM and decided I deserved a break. No broken bones, just a lifetime of better food. I could give two happy meals about DEI, either for it or agin it

Boycott everything. Consume nothing. Stop giving to fair-weather corporations. They will always hate you.

I love it when these groups show themselves. It makes it easier to identify the enemy.

I always have the extra large double filet meal with unsweetened tea. But I could always eat two of them. Now I’ve been given a reason.

DEI benefitted white women more than any other group. Look it up. Somehow this became about people of color.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. You're anonymous.

I’d boycott it but I hate it already. I wish they’d make something good. Anyone here got a favorite I should try?

@10:36 you should have made one call, that's all

Kitty burger with fries said...

Ever notice that there is a scarcity of feral cats around McDonalds? Maybe it's just a coincidence.

Their sausage McMuffin with egg is a true delight. Might have to go get a couple.

They are getting their McPanties in a bunch.

The People’s Union USA, which was founded by a white guy. Of course it was.

Those boycotters are being some real McA$$holes

Musk is right. DEI needs to be eliminated and replaced with MEI, merit, excellence, and intelligence.

McD's fries are my cheat meal. I cant have them often but those things slap.

It's equal opportunity, not equal outcome, jackwagons.

As far as peaceful protest goes, boycotts are awesome. No one blocks the road. There are no signs on the sidewalk. Just individuals quietly using their own money to protest a business. I get it. If a business screws me over, they don't get my money - ever again. While I seriously doubt that Panasonic, GM, or any of the others on my "never again" list care whether I buy their products again, I take no issue with groups of any size or composition who use their combined economic power to force change. It's the American way!

I'm a little old lady and I sometimes order a child's happy meal for myself at the drive through. Small burger freshly cooked, handful of fries, a drink and a toy for about $7.00. I've given the toys as neighborhood kids' birthday gifts when I didn't want to spend much money.

Wish McDonald's would bring back the deep fried pies, including cherry, and get rid of the crappy baked apple pie. Oh well, there is Whataburger.

I remember when a quarter-pounder was 25-cents.

McDo still does the deep fried pies in Asia. In Taiwan they have them with tuna and savory flavours. Filipino fast food chain Jollibee sells a deep fried Peach Mango pie that you can get in American cities with a Jollibee like Houston. Speaking of the Philippines. The McDonalds there still sells McSpaghetti like in the 80s.

I’ve been personally boycotting for years because their service is even shittier than their food.

Anonymous said...

All of this boycotting needs to slow down. Just make a personal choice of who you do business with based on your personal merits.

No you don’t. You were drunk and in a Krystal.

McD's needs to get rid of at least half the menu and have a simple program like it once was...maybe then they can train the staff to make coffee....

I went to Japan & and ate at McD. They had shrimp burgers. Wonderful!

And yet here you are loyally reading, commenting and helping to pay the bills.

Boycott whatever you want. I think I'll boycott "The People's Union USA" whatever the hell that is.

McDonalds in northeast states have Lobster Rolls. Delish.

100% guaranteed the ice cream machine doesn't work.

Damn. Thanks for reminding me because I forgot. Would have gotten a Bud Light to go with my double quarter pounder I had for lunch.

Maybe the drive thru lines will be shorter now.

one call that's all !

@1:38 I always get the Double SEC McMuffin when I am in Japan. Why is it that Asia always has the best glutton combos and not us?

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
