Get a gay burger at Burger King - Today, 03:01 PM

I'm just hoping Wienerschnitzel doesn't jump on the bandwagon.
Burger King has concocted yet another way to have it your way: a gay pride burger.

The Proud Whopper, as it's called, comes wrapped in a rainbow colored wrapper with this inscription: "We are all the same inside." It will be sold through Thursday at one Burger King restaurant on San Francisco's Market Street, that was at the heart of the route for last weekend's 44th annual San Francisco Pride Celebration & Parade.

Burger King on Wednesday morning at 8 a.m. EST plans to post a two-minute video about the Proud Whopper on its YouTube channel.

"It showcases who we are as a brand," says Fernando Machado, senior vice president of global brand management at Burger King. "It sho ws how we, as a brand, believe in self-expression."

The inspiration behind the unusual burger wrap and video, he says, is Burger King's localized efforts to put into motion actions that support its recently-tweaked slogan: "Be Your Way."

Strangely contradictory isn't it?

What are we promoting here, that we are all the same? Or that individual self expression is better?

Either way.... I never liked Burger King anyway.

Welp, I didn't have plans to fly to San Francisco tomorrow, so I'm good. Plus I've always been more a Quarter Pounder guy myself.

So are you saying you don't want the special sauce on your burger?

Ya know, Big Macs are just deceiving. You could mash that thing into the size of a Corn Puff. A QP has some substance to it.

Anyone tried BK's new ripoff, the Big King?

No, I haven't and I certainly don't plan on stepping anywhere near a restaurant that promotes their food via gay sex.

Granite I realize that most companies do not have the same political view as I do. That's never been in question. But for a food company (of all things) to actually name a product after "Gay pride" is a bit much wouldn't you say?

Wait for it....

Wait for it....

THERE IT IS!!!

I'm gonna be honest... I wouldn't be super thrilled to buy a "Heterosexual burger" either. When I'm ordering fast food the last thing I want to think about is sexual orientation.

B-I-N-G-O

An honest agnostic is one who put God to the test like he wants you to; to prove Himself to you, that's why no man can or ever will convince you of there being God and His son Jesus. ONLY He can do that. An honest agnostic wants to know the truth no matter the cost or where it leads you. You accept the conclusions on your own. That's an honest agnostic. A dishonest one says I don't care.Thereby becoming an atheist and a Fool!

   

Happy, happy, happy.
