Wait. Hot dog restaurant? What the ever loving fuck is a hot dog restaurant?
Chez Frank?
Here you go.
Sonic, for one. Their food tastes like boiled Oscar Meyer on cheap Sara Lee buns. I live in Wisconsin, the brat is sacred here, so I have no use for hotdogs that are worse than what you could get at a gas station. And eating in your car when you’re not on a stake out is just stupid.

Grin! Already answered, of course, but hereabouts, at least, we’ve got Der Wienerschnitzel, which is…okay. Industrial grade hot dogs, comparable to what McDonald’s does with hamburgers.
When you’re as hungry as I am right now, you throw caution to the winds…
I’m not whining about it, I am laughing over it. My father was a Republican & if he saw what the Republican Party is doing these days he would be crying in the grave he now resides in.
I must say, I no longer consider myself a Republican and for good reason. But this no longer concerns me for they are imploding from within. Now I am just sitting back and watching it all unfold before my eyes
I do believe their political name or party should be changed to—
Republicons

Sitnam, you joined [Join Date: Mar 2003] & still you are classified as a “guest”

Guests don’t pay for a subscription. Members do pay for one. It has nothing to do with join date.
Then you’ll be sadly disappointed.
Who says I want you to “take me back”? (whatever the fuck that means) :dubious:
I generally don’t give a shit about someone’s political leanings. I do give a shit how a person acts. And sometimes, I don’t feel they deserve to be treated with kindness or respect.
Besides, people can be just as hateful, if not worse, without even using a single insult.
You’re from Pittsburgh and you’ve never heard of The O? Shame on you!
“Take someone back” is just a reference to complete forgiveness for all past history and transgressions as long as both parties are honestly interested in it. It doesn’t work all that often because people tend to be petty creatures but it can be a valuable alternative to chronic conflict as long as all parties have a stake in ending it. I have done it with several people before successfully. It is simply a ‘reset’ button when interpersonal conflicts start to get out of hand unnecessarily.
I believe that almost all people should be treated with some degree of respect. That doesn’t mean that you agree with what they are saying or what they represent but it is simply much more pragmatic in my experience to treat almost all people well. Forming bright lines of one group versus another, singling out the weak for personal attacks and declaring virtual wars based on nothing but simple tribalism won’t get you anywhere. That type of thinking explains the Middle-East over the past few thousand years. We should be well beyond that in places like the U.S. and we are in most cases except where that tribalism starts to rear its ugly head again.
Political Correctness makes the fundamental mistake of thinking of this problem as a political rather than an inter-personal problem. You cannot legislate or make blanket policies that force people to be nice to each other. That has to come from individuals and one-on-one interactions and many liberal movements have a horrible track record at the latter. I refuse to shop at the local Whole Foods because the white, upper middle-class people (I am one myself) that dominate it are among the nastiest and most aggressive people that I have ever encountered in my life. The same is true for every other congregation of white social activist types that I have ever encountered. They love to talk about how progressive they are but do little to promote it in their day-to-day life other than asinine policies that mostly apply to others.
My position is to stop worrying about what your other white friends think and just be nice to almost everyone consistently. I am starting to think that makes me a radical for the first time in my life.
Yeah, I just farted. That was me. Sorry.
Holy shit, a farting turnip! :eek:
Ye gods, I agree with you!
(In the Whole Foods parking lot, I was nearly run down by a Prius with a “Coexist” bumper sticker and a bumper sticker for a hot yoga studio.)
SHUT UP Trinopus, you stinky, poopie-headed tard, you!
I apologize for my previous outburst. I had a stressful day and I took it out on Trinopus. I have no issue with him. In fact, he’s one of my favorite Dopers. I also have no issues against people with low IQ’s, nor people who stink, nor people with heads made out of poop, nor actual pieces of poop (embrace your fecal individuality, poop).
So… Are you a Der Wienerschnitzel fan?
You’re actually one of my favorite Dopers, so if you had seriously been irked with me, I’d have been quite distressed.
I grew up around cattle, so I have very definitely been poopie-footed at times. A reg’lar ol’ shitkicker! And, yeah, I’ve had it on my pants, and shirts, and… Well, you know how it is with cattle! Potty training just does not work!
I had many a drunken late night dog at the dirty-o in Oakland.
I just use a stricter definition of “restaurant” than all y’all.
I have no idea. Perhaps they’re not sure yet. 
I think the other thread that got started about how the Vagina Monologues was cancelled because it might offend women without vaginas pretty much debunks the OP. Political correctness does in fact go too far, and when people’s lives aren’t being ruined in the name of it, it’s actually really amusing.
