McBitch, Please: An Open Letter To #McDonald's of Houston

Dear Houston area McDonald's franchise owners,

I understand that you have recently posted signs making patrons aware of your new dress code that state, "Pull up your pants or don't come in. Try to have some decency and respect for others. No one wants to see your underwear."

I'm a little perplexed by your motivation. Why would anyone give two thoughts about what they're wearing into McDonald's-- an establishment that cares so much about the consumers that they add anti-foaming agents and petroleum derivatives to their McNuggets.  

You REALLY have a soapbox? Who are you kidding? You're lucky anyone still comes into your establishment- pants, or no to purchase your toxic food. 

It's also interesting that sagging pants are your only fashion-related issue. I didn't notice anything on your sign mention a problem with short hemlines, or excessive cleavage being offensive. This can only leave me to assume that you're targeting a specific demographic. Do you really want to go there, McDonalds? You're opening a potentially giant can of worms here unless you also begin taking offense  at the sight of an exposed bra strap. 

Here's the bottom line. If you want to be a bigot, then go buy a Chikfila.

    1. Thanks, Michael. It's not that I love seeing underwear, but their problem seems to run a bit deeper than that...

  2. What a bold, stupid, misguided move. It will be interesting to see how long that lasts.

    1. At least we have the right to openly mock them for it. There's always that.

    1. Thanks, sister! You may already know this, but I'm fond of you, as well. I'm getting ready to make a pinnable graphic to add to this that is just too much fun.

  5. You're so right on - I'm not wild about the sagging pants, but really? That's where they've decided to draw their line? Because it's already such a classy joint.
