In my area, they opened a "Hoots Wings," which was apparently some sort of quick-serve takeout version with no employees-as-sex-objects at all.
I say "was apparently," by the way, because I never felt tempted to go there myself, and it's already out of business.
Still, I guess I gotta give them credit for being true believers in their wings standing on their own merit, and also correctly figuring out that my (very progressive) part of town probably wouldn't be the target demographic for their traditional model.
Every job I've ever held seems to have the same recurring character: a middle-aged+ balding obese man who regularly makes creepy/sexist/racist comments, and when told off, dramatically throws their arms up and laments about not being able to make jokes anymore.
Anyway, one of the talking points this character routinely brings up is that they'll go to Hooters, but actually just for the Wings - they're really that good!
...no, David, no one's buying your bullshit. You go there because you like tits, and apparently not the ones hanging off the poor woman you've Stockholm syndromed into becoming and remaining your wife.
But apparently the whole "I go there for the wings!" lie is so common that even Hooters execs started to believe it.
...and seriously, why is David following me?? New job, there's fucking David, sometimes with a mustache, sometimes with glasses, or a funny hat or something... but he's always there.
It's like when Playboy stopped printing nude photographs because "people read it for the articles", then reversed that decision within a year. The brand just needs to own its demographic, which yeah for some things is just creepy, middle-aged dudes who need a veneer of non-sexuality to keep up appearances.
Funny enough my straight mom was a hard-core fan of playboy (I'm fully convinced in her heterosexuality considering her decades as an ally and all of her kids being queer). She was generally straight laced, but loved the counterculture that the articles of playboy contained.
But yeah the business model was always that the tits pay for the ability to publish Fahrenheit 451 and Hunter S. Thompson, not the other way around.
Or when onlyfans wanted to have us pay for 'engaging family friendly content' 🤭. Sure the original idea was for regular movie celebs to monetize their fans. But at this point none of those will ever want to be found on onlyfans. Except Sasha Grey maybe 😅. Onlyfans has become a caricature. You don't pivot away from that. Just like hooters won't be for the wings or McDonald's for the salads even if they happen to be really good.
Did you just insult my favorite twitch streamer Sasha Grey? What are you insinuating, sir and/or madam?
No on the contrary. I was just joking about her former field of acting. I wish it was viewed as more normal. And that she would have make to get a foothold in regular movies 🫶
I didn't know she did twitch now. I've never watched that. I game a lot but I have no patience for watching streams.
Sorry! I should've put a "/s" at the end. I was also joking.
Yep. I too would have loved it if she had a proper acting career right now. She's always been very charming and has had lots of creative outlets. She was one of the first people that taught me not to understimate adult performers
You must have great ~~tits~~ wings
looks at scale
looks back at computer
...naw I'm sure it's fine.
