Someone's feewings got hurt. I would probably go grab a free beer though.
Grab a beer, kiss a dude and then shout "this fucking bar made me gay!"
Then leave a bunch of positive online reviews and make videos about how this bar makes people gay and you've never been happier.
You need to wear tear-away clothes with the (pardon the phrase) gayest possible outfit on underneath. It needs to be a show! Make it loud and fabulous! 🏳️🌈
Seriously though, this sounds like a terrible idea in a bar full of homophobes and free beer.
"Hi, I am a very straight man who... loves looking at red meat and eating... hooters. AT Hooters, where the straight men are. I would like my free beer now, dollface."
Yep, grab the free beer so they have to absorb a loss, avoid the place like the plague the rest of the year.
I think this was the invitation flyer:
Freud is spinning in his grave.
Two men come in: "Hi, I'm straight, give me my free beer and one for my buddy here who's also straight."
Bartender: "Here are your free beers."
Man: "Thank you, and now here is our beer celebration"
The two men proceed to make out.
I’m tempted to go in there as a trans woman & try to convince them to give me free beer because they think I’m a dude. Given that I like women, by their logic, that just makes me a straight guy dressed like a woman, ergo… FREE BEER!!!
Please never imply temptation to go to Idaho again. I live in the deep south and even I'm afraid of that hellhole
Would be utterly hilarious.
And how exactly do they determine if someone is straight? Do they have them jack off to a woman before they enter?
“Get out back & motorboat Doris. If you’re not at least at half mast, no beer.”
I picture gay men coming in like Straight Holt to get free beer.
Oh we about to bankrupt this fucker.
How is this legal? Is bro gonna throw up a "No Darkies" sign next?
sounds kind of gay to me
I hope the campaign goes so well that literally thousands of straight men go there to have a free beer
"Finally, a place for us straight men. Do you have a jukebox, because somebody plans to put on Bob Srgar's greatest hits.
I made the mistake of looking through some of the IG comments and I don’t want to live on this planet anymore.
Who cares? Lol, why does this make people so upset?
I care because just like all lives matter, this is a dog whistle for discrimination and repression of minorities.
How? I'm genuinely curious; I don't really have a horse in this race.
You don’t see how hosting a non-existent counter-event to the very real pride month is an inherent rejection of said pride month?
Not really? It's such a tiny thing compared to pride month that's it's silly to focus on it tbh
So you think that it isn’t a dog whistle because… not enough people showed up and too many people are aware of it existing?
I think it's a tiny, stupid, Itty bitty thing, and you are focusing way, way too much on it, yes.
I don’t think anyone asked you for your opinion on it. I do remember you asking how it was a dog whistle. Maybe you have a bigger horse in this race than you let on.
I think it was designed to make profit off of making people upset.
But more specifically, you almost have to respect it. Target the same audience that still refuses to admit that James O'Keefe stole their money and watch the money roll in.
Right wingers love shit like this and will invent a backlash just to donate even more money to the business owner.
[email protected] material?
Apart from the fact that this counter celebration is cringey and time-deaf, that's also a really long-winded and uncatchy name for it. Why didn't they call it Straight Joy Month, or something more succinct.
Joy is gay.
"South California"
Tell me you don't know SoCal without telling me you don't know SoCal
Friday Nights All June! It's "Definitely Heterosexual Mens' Night" at the Old State Saloon!
...
Yeah, but seriously, fuck these snowflake clowns:
“An all-male Monday sounds pretty gay to me.”
Holy cow, how do they lead the article with this? It's literally homophobic to claim that a bunch of men together is gay, and men are already suffering for social pressure to not show platonic affection to one another, and they're fanning that flame.
This is bar owner is a stupid shithead, but every time I open a link to this website I'm reminded how absolutely garbage it is. This is like tops tho and honestly leads me to believe they're no better than the bar owner.
