Someone's feewings got hurt. I would probably go grab a free beer though.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 63 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Grab a beer, kiss a dude and then shout "this fucking bar made me gay!"

Then leave a bunch of positive online reviews and make videos about how this bar makes people gay and you've never been happier.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago (3 children)

You need to wear tear-away clothes with the (pardon the phrase) gayest possible outfit on underneath. It needs to be a show! Make it loud and fabulous! 🏳️‍🌈

[–] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Seriously though, this sounds like a terrible idea in a bar full of homophobes and free beer.

"Hi, I am a very straight man who... loves looking at red meat and eating... hooters. AT Hooters, where the straight men are. I would like my free beer now, dollface."

[–] Sludgehammer@lemmy.world 23 points 5 months ago

Yep, grab the free beer so they have to absorb a loss, avoid the place like the plague the rest of the year.

I think this was the invitation flyer:

Every once in a while it looks like a bicept. I know the joke is penis, but I don't see penis. I see chicken leg.

Does anyone else see chicken leg?

[–] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 15 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (3 children)

I see an elephant. What does that mean, Dr. Rorschach?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago (2 children)

"The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll whisper "no.""

Oh wait, sorry, wrong Rorschach.

I thought it was a poorly drawn air pod for a second there.

[–] herrcaptain@lemmy.ca 6 points 5 months ago

I think we all see what we want to see in it. I also think you may be hungry?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

I think it looks more like a bicep.

Freud is spinning in his grave.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 46 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Two men come in: "Hi, I'm straight, give me my free beer and one for my buddy here who's also straight."

Bartender: "Here are your free beers."

Man: "Thank you, and now here is our beer celebration"

The two men proceed to make out.

[–] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 22 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

I’m tempted to go in there as a trans woman & try to convince them to give me free beer because they think I’m a dude. Given that I like women, by their logic, that just makes me a straight guy dressed like a woman, ergo… FREE BEER!!!

[–] sparkle@lemm.ee 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Please never imply temptation to go to Idaho again. I live in the deep south and even I'm afraid of that hellhole

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

I would just generally avoid Idaho if I were in your no doubt chic shoes.

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago

Would be utterly hilarious.

[–] SeaJ@lemm.ee 42 points 5 months ago (1 children)

And how exactly do they determine if someone is straight? Do they have them jack off to a woman before they enter?

[–] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

“Get out back & motorboat Doris. If you’re not at least at half mast, no beer.”

[–] SeaJ@lemm.ee 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I picture gay men coming in like Straight Holt to get free beer.

How is this legal? Is bro gonna throw up a "No Darkies" sign next?

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 31 points 5 months ago (4 children)

Charging different prices for different people isn't illegal. It's the basis of ladies night.

What I want to know is how can you tell if someone is gay or not. People think I'm gay. I'm not. But there are people who keep telling me I should be true to myself. And I should. And I AM. Which is why boobs are just great. They just brighten your day. Just like "TA-DA!!! IT'S TITTIES!!!" and you make that public domain sound of the asian girl in amazement. WOWWWW!!!!!!

[–] dogslayeggs@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I think some cities/states have determined Ladies Nights to be illegal... after lawsuits from the exact same types of dudes who think a heterosexual awareness month are a good idea.

I’m right there with ya pal. Everyone thought I was gay growing up, but I liked boobs enough, I had a pair installed.

You should try it, they’re great!

I hope the campaign goes so well that literally thousands of straight men go there to have a free beer

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 17 points 5 months ago (2 children)

"Yes I am straight."

"Prove it."

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Kiss that amazing guy over there without getting a boner! (Filters out bisexuals too).

"sigh"

(Unzips pants while looking at a nekkid lady)

"Finally, a place for us straight men. Do you have a jukebox, because somebody plans to put on Bob Srgar's greatest hits.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 5 months ago

All right, fellow-cis people. We have a duty to drink this bar out of business. I recently quit drinking, but I can take a night off for the team. Let's go!

[–] TheFunkyMonk@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I made the mistake of looking through some of the IG comments and I don’t want to live on this planet anymore.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I already don't want to live on this planet, but the universe is federated. Problem is, Earth is the only planet with a userbase.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 5 months ago

The others defederated us after we killed their admin's son
