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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Wife and I have had a few completely heterosexual meals at Chili's in the past, but we are averse to dining there any more due to the fact that they use entirely pre-packaged foods. I am a teensy weensy bit of a food snob, just to the degree that if I am going to consume totally pre-packaged foodstuffs, I prefer to buy the packages myself, open them at home, and eat in my undershirt in front of the TV. If I am going out, I prefer to have something that has been cooked in the same time zone.

That said, Wife and I had a terrific hetro dinner at Ruby Tuesday, a place that I was predisposed to dislike. The salad bar was fresh and great quality and the burgers were excellent. We would have to give it two straight thumbs up!

If you're gonna spend 11 bucks on a burger, I'd take the Kobe burger at Folsom Bistro over the Triple Prime at Ruby Tuesday any day... Mmmmmm

I also refuse to eat at Chili's because of the pre-packaged food. Why pay for teenage service and boxed dinner?

I did the 2 mini burgers and salad at Ruby's and it was like $8.95 and totally filling and good. And straight. Definitely want to try Folsom Bistro, though!

Folsom Bistro sounds really promising, but I was afraid that it might be a little gay. Your thoughts?

It is french, and baby blue, and they have roasted beet salads.. so bring a female if you need to defend your masculinity. I brought a baby too, so there would be no question that my wife was just a stand-in hetero.
