A black woman told a man to be careful because he almost hit her daughter with a door and he BEATS HER!

I hate to make a joke, but what else do you expect outside a Cracker Barrel.

Emokid is throwing slomo dove at my face, I guess that means he flipped me the bird

I love me some Cracker Barrel. That guy is a gigantic douchenozzle.

We don't have Cracker Barrel. I've never been to one. But apparently, some of those crackers are mean.

Cracker Barrel has really tastey, wholesome food at great prices. Their coffee is outstanding too.

That mullet is a hate crime in it's own right.

My family decided one year to go to Cracker Barrel for Thanksgiving in place of having our traditional giant homecooked meal. I've hated the place ever since.

They serve a tasty serving of turkey sausage. God knows what's in it, but it tastes good. Heh.

But to see a firefly means it reminds me something I lost in the past time or imagine some hope in the future,so shimmery bug light is adequate for me.

Well, that was just dumb, Corey

Fah rah rah, rah rah, rah rah rah raaahhh

LMAO at Caps!!!

I know I've eaten at one, since my southern inlaws were very determined to take me, however I can't really remember anything about it, other than it was attached to a kitschy shop. It didn't make much of an impression on me, obviously.

ugh, the shop is the worst part. They sell a whole bunch of things that nobody could possibly want. Given every item in a Cracker Barrel shop, I'd throw it all away.

That place is a country hell.

On a recent road trip, my niece and nephew discovered Big League Chew (at the cracker barrel store) and are now smitten with both the store and the gum.






ETA: Clarity

Isn't A Christmas Story just the best movie ever? I want to be at home with blankets and it be cold out and watch that movie with my cats. I wasn't even at work Monday and this has been the longest week ever.

Hey! I love the kitschy store!

I don't get the hate crime thing. Does anyone ever get hit in the face after being complimented?

What a Cracker Barrel douche-bag. Beating the woman in front of her daughter just because she pointed out that he nearly hit her daughter with the door. WTF?

I hate crime. I also hate the term 'Hate Crime'.
Somehow it's not as bad to beat the crap out of someone as long as they are the same race as you. Would this have even made the news if it was two crackers involved?

Wasn't there a South Park about Hate Crimes once? I think Cartman hit Token or something like that.

I don't dispute this was a hate crime based on the definition of a hate crime. Clearly it was. I just hate the term hate crime. It implies that if you chose to beat the crap out of someone that doesn't fit into certain groups of people, then it's not a crime involving some level of hate, which is bullshit.

I think the point is JR, that say it had been a white woman and her daughter, he may not have had such and extreme over-reaction... Which is possible.

I totally appreciate the Cracker Barrel jokes, but I was unable to join in as much as I do like Cracker Barrel breakfasts. Remember, I see rednecks like that everyday as I'm sure some of you do too. Just, hard to have a sense of humour about a prick like this.

I could not keep from thinking "There are not black people here because Cracker Barrel has a history of treating African-Americans badly."

This particular mullet-wearing racist could not have picked a worse place to beat up a black Army reservist. The dude is obviously a dinosaur and deserves everything the law can throw at him.

It's quiet. Too quiet.
