Showing Original Post only (View all)Chic-Fil-A family values: Mother-Son Date Knight. (No, really.) [View all]
http://io9.com/chick-fil-a-really-wants-you-to-take-your-mom-on-a-medi-482949482See, you pagans? It's not just Lot and his daughters! Biblical values are gender-role inclusive
[font size="4"]Chick-Fil-A really wants you to take your mom on a medieval date[/font]
Chick-Fil-A, the disturbingly delicious fast food chicken chain and protector of traditional family values, does not approve of things like gay marriage. They do, apparently, approve of sons and their moms dressing up like knights and queens and then going out on dates together, because they just instituted the infinitely disturbing Date Knight promotion.
Yes, at 49 of the company's DC-area restaurants (and select other locations), customers are encouraged actively encouraged to dress up in medieval garb and go on mother-son dates to Chik-Fil-A, obviously. From the actual press release sent by the actual company:"During this special medieval-themed evening, moms and their sons are encouraged to spend some time together while they enjoy dinner, great conversation and several special activities. Every Mother-Son pair will also receive a place mat with fun questions and topics to get the conversation started, and a take-home booklet that provides ideas for future dates and questions that both moms and their sons can ask each other.

If you're determined to dress in medieval costume, go find a Renaissance Fair and eat a turkey leg.

I will be the first to admit to seeing innuendo where it may not exist because I have a dirty mind.
