I learned today from a Crossroads employee that a Cracker Barrell was going to go where Bob Evans resides, at the corner of Meeting and Walnut, but Cary wouldn't let them in because of their tall-ass sign. 7/25/2010 10:53:43 PM |

cracker barrel is anti-homosexuals. they pretty much fire you if they find out you are gay
so my whole family has been boycotting them for years

Having to drive to Morrisville to eat at one is a first world problem.
Their side salads own. The onlt thing I have found comparable is an Outback side salad. 7/25/2010 11:00:52 PM |

it smacks of boring family gatherings and long road trips

why does it matter what the owner of the cracker barrel thinks about gay people? they are serving food, and that's it. I'm pretty sure everyone has their own loves and hates, it's not plastered on the wall to offend anyone, so who cares? 7/26/2010 1:14:42 AM |

Cary is a nice place to live.
Avoid an HOA and you're fine.
Or, just bitch about everything incessantly.
Having moved to an area that costs more, has significantly more crime, has less accessible shopping, has more actual problems, has less desirable education options, has much higher poverty, has a relatively uneducated populace, has crappy healthcare options with long waiting times, and has clusterfucked traffic, I can see the good parts in what Cary has done and am more than willing to live there and peacefully oppose the sillier things they do. Maybe it's just the old man in me talking.

Cary is ok as long as you can ignore their stupid rules. Like the one that makes Bojangles inaccessible to most of Cary 7/26/2010 1:18:51 AM |
AstralAdvent All American 9999 Posts user info edit post |
why would you live in a place that has rules that you hate?
Don't say because its cheap, because of location or because it has cool stores. It does however have nice grass and water runoff, and houses that are 30 feet from each other.

I mean, I live in a really old neighborhood near downtown Cary that is much more diverse racially and age-wise than any other place I've lived (excluding on campus). I'm within walking distance of an old ass drugstore that still has a soda fountain, a hippy cafe, and a fucking strip club. Insular.

That used to be the case. The board recinded the policy in 2002.

They just opened a new Bojangles near the corner of Chatham and Maynard. I guess you could consider that inaccessible to most of Cary considering Cary somehow expanded all the way out to Jordan Lake, beating Apex in the annexation frenzy.7/26/2010 8:11:33 AM |
