Ron Filipkowski: "Devastating news" for Cracker Barrel...



Some replies:
So Cracker Barrel and movie sets are the 2 places James Woods will never step foot again.

...

No mob fights.” I eat out several times a week all over the country. Have never seen a mob fight in a restaurant.

Republicans are SO frightened of things that never happen.


...

Cracker Barrel should use this in an ad.

Please eat at Cracker Barrel, at least you know this asshole won't be there.

#JamesWoods save the acting for the cameras. I think the only #CrackerBarrel near us is way up in Bakersfield! So, I don't suspect you're "stopping in" that far for food. I know your place isn't far from me & our neighbourhood doesn't have "mob fights." Trying for GOP Cred (Clownface emoji)

you'll never patronize that company again, go nuts -- this is America, nobody's forcing you to go into a Cracker Barrel (not yet anyway -- stay tuned for an executive order from Trump).

This being America, you also have the First Amendment right to expose yourself to ridicule by publicly ranting to the widest audience you can possibly find about how angry a minor change to corporate branding has made you.

But that's an improvement now that I know it keeps James Woods from entering the place.

The one in Yuma still has decent biscuits and gravy, and fried apples over pancakes.

Just have to ensure we don't mistake it for a Golden Corral.

Maybe we should request that more large restaurant chains also make minor changes their corporate branding, so as to reduce the possibility of encountering James Woods while dining there.

but it’s for the people

Please note that the bot grew weary and pulled the plug on this fledgling effort. All of a sudden decided it was too political when I tried to make Joe’s head proportionate to his body.

that logo is bland and uninspiring. i liked the old one... though if i was updating it, i'd have two people at the barrell of differing.... something that can be expressed visually... help to build community, that sort of thing.

it's not michelin star food by any stretch of they imagination, but it does hit certain keys for a lot of people, myself included... chicken fried steak..... nom.

Is he not stopping his foot in again?

Or

He'll stomp his foot?

I git so cornfused by magas.


I remember the hysteria over the original Proctor and Gamble’s being chided to rebrand their logo because of hysterical fundies. They saw the old logo as satanic, so, P&G gave in and gave the rest of us a bland logo. Here’s what the fundamentalist were a scared of.
