Went to Chili's by the EDH theatre tonight. It was a suprisingly pleasant experience. Some of the best service my significant other and I have experienced in a while.

Actually it is, read what you wrote. Did you really have to mention your bf and that you had great service? You could have just left it as an "I went to blah blah chain restaurant and had great service" but you subtly lead it in with a gay ref, or at least that's how I see it.

BTW, have you ever had a meal at a home? You seem to eat out more than SPICY...

Yup, I love homecooked meals. I eat at home quite often actually.

Sorry. My significant other and I...

I'll even edit my original post. Gender neutral now, is that better?

Why does it have to be such a big deal that he went with his bf?? It's not like he said, "my hot gay lover and I went to Chili's and had hot gay burgers before going home and having hot gay lovin'."

You mean that they totally skipped the hot gay movie? Wow. Those must have been some great hot gay burgers!

Because darn near every post of his is in some way homosexually referenced.
Darth and I don't agree often, but in this case I agree with him.

The objective of the OP is two fold. a) mention where he went, b) mention that he's gay.

Went to Chili's by the EDH theatre tonight. It was a suprisingly pleasant experience. Some of the best service I have experienced in a while.
What would have been wrong with that?

Mention, as you always do, your homosexual "B/F" or "S/O" and you're asking for the attention / threads and responses to him being gay.

Don't get me wrong, the guy can post whatever he wants, but if you post consistently that you're a homosexual, then you bring the issues upon yourself.

What work I have done I have done because it has been play. If it had been work I shouldn't have done it. Who was it who said, "Blessed is the man who has found his work"? Whoever it was he had the right idea in his mind. Mark you, he says his work--not somebody else's work. The work that is really a man's own work is play and not work at all. Cursed is the man who has found some other man's work and cannot lose it. When we talk about the great workers of the world we really mean the great players of the world. The fellows who groan and sweat under the weary load of toil that they bear never can hope to do anything great. How can they when their souls are in a ferment of revolt against the employment of their hands and brains? The product of slavery, intellectual or physical, can never be great.

My husband and I ate there and also had a very pleasant experience.

Oh sorry, I probably shouldn't have said 'my husband'... it's probably offensive to someone out there.

You guys need to get over it. Yes, swmr is gay... yes, we all know he's gay... yes, he's proud to be gay... and yes, he likes to talk about it... is it really that big of a deal? You guys don't like to read about it all the time and we know that... so don't read his posts. Problem solved smile.gif

My 5 year old son loves the ribs there and watching lightrail go by.

the food there has always been very flavorful and I've always had good service.

I guess that's why quite often the place is packed with customers.
I would rather be Backpacking

It's not a big deal to me.
My Wife is bisexual however I don't mention it in 90% of my posts.

The question I've asked in several other posts, many of which seem to get censored "what's his point? / Where is he going with it?"

Why consistently mention it unless one is looking to draw attention to themselves.

What work I have done I have done because it has been play. If it had been work I shouldn't have done it. Who was it who said, "Blessed is the man who has found his work"? Whoever it was he had the right idea in his mind. Mark you, he says his work--not somebody else's work. The work that is really a man's own work is play and not work at all.

I refuse to eat at Chili's

And not because it's gay.

My wife and I always eat in the bar area at Chili's, and we always have good food and service.

Sorry for mentioning my wife. It's probably not P.C.
I have opinions, you have opinions. We'll just call it even...is that OK ??
