I heard about this via metaquotes a while back. At this point, the fact that people are asshats has long ceased to be surprising news.

I was more amused by the "we don't have any gay coffee."

Oh.. good ol' Baylor. The fact that it's a school in Texas just makes it worse.

And amen to Elizabeth, one of the commentators. (That's correct in calling her that, right? She commmented.. makes her a commentator? No?)

Anyway, to quote, "Don't ask, don't tell, don't read the coffee cups. Censor any story having to do with killing, multiple sex partners and fratricide. Oops, that would also include the Bible! Sorry about that."

What was that old song? "You're the cream in my coffee?"

Oh, never mind.

I would like to find a man in my coffee, but I've never had the luck.

I liked the part where it said, "The spokesmen for the group (and yes, that's spokesman -- apparently the Concerned Women are composed of concerned men)..."

amasis, we'll ship some other humans over to your little island.

I've also heard that some people have stopped buying Kraft Foods products because the company donated some money to some homosexual-friendly event in Chicago.

"Mommy, I want macaroni and cheese!"
"No, little Bobby! Macaroni is the DEVIL'S FOOD."

If you remember back in the election, Heinz did something good for gays (I can't remember what) and my grandparents haven't bought Heinz since.

My grandmothers excuse, "Del Monte's on sale".

My grandparents have NEVER bought anything on sale.

The Heinz fortune is what Teresa Heinz Kerry married into, pre-John Kerry, thus the conservatives' hatred of Heinz ketchup.

Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

That so funy Boobs, because the new barista this morning at my Starbucks looked just like Falcon star, Jason Adonis. He really knew how to work the foam.

i think that is the logical career trajectory - from falcon exclusive to starbucks barista.

the best line from that article is this

"Across the country, these far-right Republican organizations, rather than helping victims of Katrina, or fighting poverty, or doing anything at all to help the country, are making their top priority the need to change our coffee cups to fight the increasing homosexualization of American coffee."

It shows how truly hateful and eveil these groups are, when they could be concentrating their efforts elsewhere.
