Wtf does « gave my life to Christ » means in that situation? Did mf get baptized in the parking lot??
i think he gave a life altering blowjob in that parking lot
To Jesus?
i don’t expect cracker barrel parking lot sex partners to give real names
Dedicated it to Jesus
Swallowed for the lord.
Got engaged to a guy in the parking lot. That’s my made up story and I’m sticking to it.
Can someone seriously answer this question. I’m losing my mind over here. WTF does it mean?
Got shot by someone named Josh
Only Baptists baptize, and it’s literally dunking your whole body into water. We had a huge tub behind the pulpit, it was about three feet deep and 12’x8’. I can’t imagine that happening in a Cracker Barrel parking lot, unless it’s one of those pool-in-a-pickup-truck-bed situations.“Giving your life to Christ” is basically what it sounds like. An often emotional moment in which you make a personal commitment to the Biblical idea of Christ and his teachings. Think of it like an epiphany.
Edit: my bad guys, I got the terminology wrong about which sect of bigots have wet tshirt contests.
Only Baptists baptize
No, absolutely not. Baptism is arguably the most important sacrament for all christian churches! Where I’m from, the catholique baptism is typically done for babies by gently pouring water on their forehead. Ofc it’s less spectacular than the “full immersion” baptism by the Baptists (also used by the pentcotalists as well btw).
But anyway, none of that make sense to be done in a parking lot. Reading the other comments, I like the idea that the dude got suddenly touched by grace after eating a gross fish meal at Cracker Barrel!
Only Baptists baptize
Uh, can you clarify what you mean by this?
No, my bad. Of course other Christian sects baptize, though not all of them practice full immersion.
Baptisms aren’t just a Baptist thing, though they generally put more weight behind it than most other denominations that do it. At least from what I’ve seen.
I was Pentecostal growing up, and a few times a year- generally around Christmas and Easter- they’d do an open baptism and anyone who wanted could get dunked. I went to one church without that big tub behind the pulpit you’re talking about- they’d do it in the river nearby. Cold as hell in the winter.
Basically every brand of Christianity that I’m aware of has some form of baptism, though the exact way it’s done varies a lot.
Matthew 28:19 is, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”
I was baptised in the Church of England.
The new one
He was right. Jesus would never tolerate this. Time to flip some barrels.
It’s on like Donkey Kong!
Tbf the old logo is much better
Lmao they got rid of the cracker and the barrel
What? How is this any « woke » even for the MAGA lunatics ??
[edit]: Apparently the company had a diversity / non-discrimination campaign in recent years. It explains.
Anything they dont like is “woke”
They had a DEI/nondiscrimination campaign because of several high profile stories where restaurants were accused of racism (black diners being asked to move away from seats visible from the entrance, at least one black person being told “we don’t serve your kind” or words to that effect.)
I mean, it’s less visually noisy, but that’s it?
This dude’s willing to go to arms over this?
I remember getting on my knees for Jesus in the cracker barrel parking lot.
Life made so much more sense once his warm love filled me.
~To each their own.~
I’m confused. The new logo is great, or it’s shit, I don’t care. But what does it have to do with wokeness? Did the old man sitting by the barrel start sucking dick on the billboard? Has he transitioned? Does the new logo secretly spell out black lives matter in invisible ink? It’s just the name in a sort of blob? How is this political? What am I missing here?
But what does it have to do with wokeness?
See this handy guide for the way these dipshits think.
At this point it’s just that a thing changed from “back in my day.”
Austin A-series - small foreign engine. Definitely woke.
Woke doesn’t mean anything specific more, it just means “thing I don’t like.” So when somebody says they want to end wokeness, they mean they want to remove everything they don’t personally approve of.
I’ve been messing with the idea of stealing this from them. Just call everything I don’t like woke 🤷🏾♂️
Racism is woke now. Misogyny is woke. Conservative Christianity is woke. Trump is woke. Just give them the whole word and confuse the hell out of everyone.
The new logo is definitely worse, I’ll give them that.
Just typical corporate mediocrity.
All these black people thinking Trump will help their careers 😂
Do we know if this is a real person or an AI “black person”?
Edit: He’s right, he’s a trumper.
Neither. It’s a white conservative piece of shit pretending to be a minority. It’s been around far longer than “AI”.
This guy is a republican congressman. Definitely a real black guy.
His twitter handle is different.
Edit: dude is a trumper.
Either way, there is a well estbalished history of conservative dipshits pretending to be minorities on social media that support conservative ideals.

Did you go to his twitter? It’s a different handle.
I mean does anyone else remember the story about Cracker Barrel refusing to seat black families, or is that just me?
I mean aside from it basically being in the name and having never seen a non pink person there… ever, there’s these

But like I said it’s in the name dude. If you don’t look like a cracker they’ll put you over a barrel.
i don’t remember it, but i believe it.

I remember. So was Denny’s
in the 90s there was a Denny’s near me. When you were just in the door, in front of the counter, if you looked up, there was a swastika drawn on one of the ceiling tiles. It was, reportedly, there for like 4 months. Thing is, you basically would have to work there, or do this in a way the employees would definitely see. So they were cool with it.
Conservatives crying buckets of tears over a corporation’s new logo is my kink.
The heraldry of corporate feudalism is no laughing matter for capitalist serfs.
It’s not just the logo, they’re remodeling the inside to be more “modern”. The kitschy americana vibe was the only reason people go there.
According to people I know who worked in the kitchen there, the correct reason to go to cracker barrel is actually their biscuits and gravy.
The cheapest way for them to make 'em is from scratch. Everything else is premade bags and mixes, but the biscuits and gravy are made fresh a few times a day.It sure as fuck it wasn’t the food!
Cool story, bro. Where are the Epstein files?
As a European, I don’t know what Cracker Barrel is, and I couldn’t care less.
I ate there once and it was horrible. It takes a ape isl kind of incompetence to be bad at breakfast.
*special
This was far more difficult than it should’ve been.
Sorry about that.
The old man goes to one once in Frasier.
Southerner here:
Cracker Barrel is literally the worst restaurant I have ever been to. By far.
It was years ago, and I got fried fish and mashed potatoes, and it was so bad I couldn’t eat it. I am not picky: I have never skipped a plated meal at a restaurant, or even at home unless I’m deathly ill. But it was like a tv freezer dinner someone had dipped in water.
…And this is bizarre, as you have no idea how much food is part of the culture down here. Maybe it’s because my family in the south is suburban, not rural, but I have no earthly idea how that chain would get idolized.
I went to cracker barrel semi-regularly growing up. Imo, it is pretty good. Certainly better than fast food or, like, a Chili’s. Maybe their food quality has diminished in the decade since I last ate at one. But iirc, they had good pancakes, mashed potatoes, and mac and cheese. The hash brown casserole and country fried steak were the reasons to enter the building, plus the gravy. Plus you could play checkers while you waited for your table.
I had the fish one time and also found it to be not great. I assume they just have it on the menu to have it.
Maybe fish wasn’t their strong suit? Hmmm.
And man, Steak and Shake or Raising Canes or Rosas are great. Way better than the biggest chain restaurants TBH.
Never been to Rosas.
Steak and Shake was always a little off putting to me because it alwasys smelled like bleach when I walked in thr door. Imo, decent burgers (def better than fast food) and good milk shakes.
I have extremely mixed feelings about Canes. On one hand, I think their food tastes good. On the other hand, I feel like that restaurant is the result of some kind of sinister corporate science experiments in an underground bunker to create feel-goodery. Every peice of chicken is perfect. The sweet tea is too sweet, just like it should be. The canes sauce is distinct enough to be memorable, but not so different as to feel unfamiliar. Their logo is a golden retriever in a bandana. The name of the restaruant rolls off the tongue, but makes literally no sense when you think about it. It’s kind of unsettling on an existential level to me.
Raising Cane’s is as bland as Chick-fil-A, it tastes like nothing. Somehow they made it as bland as unbreaded, unseasoned chicken. And their special sauce is just mayo ketchup and mustard mixed together. Whoopee. IHOP has a better chicken sandwich.
I went to one couple of years ago. Order a chicken fried steak dinner. Fucking thing was tiny, and only got one scoop mash potatoes. It was shit to. Glad I wasn’t paying, and have no plans on returning.
Their pancakes and hashbrowns slapped when I was a kid. Has it just gotten worse or do I have rose tented glasses because of how old I was at the time?
The real positive to take away from this is Cracker Barrel is dogshit food, and there’s so many other equivalent dogshit chain restaurants usually located in the dogshit vicinity of a Cracker Barrel, that you can still eat dogshit, and not have to go inside a new, modern, dogshit Cracker Barrel.
… Just go to Applebee’s or Chili’s. It’s the same dogshit.
Can we also offer another option called “respecting yourself” and ordering a pizza instead?
now that I’ve been forced to hear about this shit halfway around the globe, can someone tell me what’s the significance of the bean-like shape of the original’s background?

I mean… was there anything else to understand there?
