Pretty much what the title says. The Chick Fil A guy is no more.
It sucks. Not because he's dead, but because where I lived he had his hands involved in just about everything. EVERYTHING! So for the next few days all I'm going to see on Facebook or hear around is "oh no the Chick Fil A guy is dead blah blah blah Gawd!". I should really just become a hermit.
He's now in a better place.
The old fart was homophobic and against gay marriage

It was his son who made the infamous quote that started the controversy, but the entire family, Truett in particular, are/were known for being hyper religious.

maybe the apple doesn't fall far from the tree in this case.
I have never eaten at a Chick-Fil-A because the name alone offends me.
Now he's burning in hell... if there is indeed a vengeful god like hus fellow fundie Christians say
Never heard of him....

It's never been an appealing name for me either. Chicks are too tiny to fillet. You have to eat them whole, bones and beaks. I've never stopped there either.
I ate a bit at CFA when I was a poor, starving college student with very little variety in my diet. I stopped going there one Sunday when I had missed breakfast at the caf, and found them closed. I had to eat at McDonalds. Bleah.
Sunday was the diciest day in terms of meals. If I couldn't depend on them for my Sunday meals (especially breakfast), then fuck 'em.
I didn't find out until much later about their religious bullshit.
There's not one near Flint that I know of so it wasn't even an issue with me.
I got food poisoning from them once. And their food was barely passable, even before I started learning how to cook. That was before the whole gay thing came up. They're boycotted twice.

We haven't heard much from David Lynch in a few years. It's about time for something really weird again.
