This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.

This community exists for the following reasons:

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.

Rules

  1. Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.

  2. No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.

  3. Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.

  4. No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.

  5. No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.

  6. No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.

  7. No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.

Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.

But why?

It would take longer to drive there sit in that line and then drive home than it would take to just make chicken for yourself. Add some pickle juice to your chicken seasoning and it’ll taste just like Chick-fil-A. Then you could have delicious chicken at home without all of the Christian hate, er, love.

I was reading the chic fil a guys biography in a thrift store other day. It opens with how he was going to give a guy a free car, but recorded the "you get a car" message at the end of 3 consecutive cassette tapes of Christian preacher sermons. Presumably, that's, what, between 3 and 6 hours worth of church to have a chance to catch the message that you get a free car?

Then the guy didn't listen to them all the way through so didn't get a car.

The guy was essentially orphaned from an abusive home and walked hours to work every day. The chic fil a guy was like "what an unfortunate story!"

motherfucker you tricked him like some kind of goblin

Cfa moves fast. That's probably only a 10 min wait. If that was a mcdonald's or burger king it would be an hour wait.

Is it true that you had to perform oral sex on an effigy of Pat Robertson as a means of entering timecard punches?

Only my manager. It was her punishment for being a lesbian.

Do you still enjoy the taste of fried chicken?

[–] transientDCer@lemdro.id 3 points 11 months ago

It was almost 20 years ago that I worked there, but yeah I still do. Used to get a spicy chicken wrap for my free meal everyday.
