So in case you haven’t seen, it looks like a Hooter’s is gonna be opening up in Shrewsbury at the old Chili’s. This is like Michael G. Scott’s wet dream. Chili’s followed by Hooters.
But apparently it’s become the buzz of the town because it’s a controversial restaurant, what with all the misogyny and all. Our take on this is pretty simple.
- Hooters has good wings. It’s not quite Smokestack Urban BBQ, but it’s delicious. And we like wings, so that’s good.
- Anyone who goes to Hooters for the women is a moron. If you want to see boobs then go to Sweaty Betty’s.
- Hooter’s doesn’t objectify women. They wear shorts and a low cut t-shirt. Considering the world that we live in today, and the clothes that some of these hoocy-momma’s be wearing, this basically makes Hooter’s Amish.
- If you think Hooter’s objectifies women and you have a problem with it, then don’t go there. Boom. Problem solved.
- Sex sells. People apparently like to look at boobs while eating their food. This is how capitalism works. Welcome to America.
- 99% of the time the girls who work at Hooter’s are nothing special, so you just focus on the food. When I first went there I thought I would be walking into a house of burlesque. Instead it was a bunch of 45 year old single mothers who smelled like cigarettes serving me wings. They want you to think that the waitresses all look like this:
But in reality, your waitress will almost always look like this:
Let’s look at what people are saying on the Telegram’s Facebook page about this. 
OK first of all Nicole, no one gives a shit where the food came from. It it tastes good and we don’t get sick eating it, then life is good. Only a tree-hugging hippie would care about that. Secondly though, if you think Hooter’s sets society backwards, I would suggest you Google “Miley Cyrus.” Then get back to me. She wasn’t done though.
So now the women who are CHOOSING to work there are “sexist objectified women?” I’m not gonna go on Nicole’s Facebook page, but quite frankly this smells like anger coming from someone who is still angry that the head cheerleader was voted most popular in her high school year book. Honestly, who gives a shit? If you find it offensive, then don’t go there.
But clearly she’s got the hippie mentality – “I don’t like it and I find it offensive, therefore it shouldn’t exist.”
Speaking of hippies and boycotts, look who else chimed in:
Ahhh yea, Dana Remian. He is the leader of the Turtleboy hippie boycott 2015. This is a guy who has sent dozens of threatening emails to local businesses, merely because they had the audacity to partake in a capitalistic enterprise. Dana Remian has never been to ANY of the Turtleboy sponsors before, yet he lied in several emails and said he would stop doing business with them. He also pitched a tent on the Worcester Common back in 2011, and then abandoned the cause when the cops came to arrest people. Because just like Kevin Ksen, he’s willing to let younger hippies take the fall for the cause while he hides in the background. The fact that he thinks Hooter’s is “Ick” tells me that it’s probably going to be pretty successful in Shrewsbury.

Nicole the Troll: no one has “blocked” your comments/responses, we don’t have that ability. Maybe you should take a breather, stop staring at yourself in the mirror, and figure out how this page works.
Before I join you in bragging about how I am also a “hot feminist” who has been a vegetarian for over 15 years, blah blah blah, I’m going to suggest that we all just concede that you’re awesome, better than everyone else, you know everything, and will someday save the world??? Then you can STFU, go away, and join discussions once you’ve grown up and acquired a sense of humor.
Rena,
You ROCK! Only she can’t save the world. She’s too busy piling on the makeup, and discovering new and interesting ways to dye her hair. I think some of the peroxide she uses has seeped into her brain, and has accelerated oxidation. Anyone who posts a photo like hers, to demonstrate how “hot” they are, is obviously a tad hung up on self image. You are right though… Nicole is some brand of awesome. Perhaps the heavily discounted store brand found at the likes of Price Rite or Aldi. Good enough for consumption in a pinch, but falling ever so short of elegance and grace.
Aww Tim, is it okay that I love cats though??
Lol. Absolutely. I have nothing against cat lovers. I myself am I cat lover, just not of the feline variety. Lol.
It’s a restaurant. Not a slaughterhouse, not a hunting/gaming facility, not a brothel. We have this fantastic thing called “choice” in our society, which allows us to CHOOSE to not patronize places that we don’t agree with!!!!!!! I personally have no use for Hooters, but I am very pleased that the building it will be going into will be an improvement to the pitiful plaza full of multiple empty buildings, and hopefully initiate more businesses to return to that area.
I’m aware, but a blog can still reach many. It doesn’t matter what the media content. He still is a copy/paste, limited writer who should sharpen his skills.
You sound like a fun person to hang out with.
I’m going home tonght and slow boil some lobsters.
He’s only a limited writer because he disagrees with your plight. The liberalist agenda in this country holds this notion that anyone who even remotely disagrees with their thought process, is immediately reduced to the level of moron, unskilled, or flat out ignorant. If turtle boy had written a piece about how hooters objectified women, or contributed to mass farming, you’d think he was the most prolific writer since Shakespeare. Albeit that this is not the case, his writing is limited, and he is subsequently inferior.
What people like you fail to realize, is that regardless of your persistence, people have always and will always disagree with you. It doesn’t make them stupid, or limited, it just makes them different.
I for one don’t agree with you, as I firmly believe that our social adoption of politically correct and overtly sensitive practices, has contributed to a mass inability of many individuals to cope. Loss of said ability has led people to seek out an all too familiar neurological blunting, inspired by big pharma and over medication. I don’t however assume you’re stupid, just different.
Get a life already, and come down off that pretentious pedestal.
No, he’s a limited writer because he lacks the sufficient skill set, period. It has nothing to do with agreement. I do recognize, based on your several paragraphs above, that you may also lack sufficient skills to properly evaluate TB’s writing skills, but I’ll give you credit for trying really hard to look like you do.
How was vacation?
Vacation? You’re obviously confused. I just wrapped 80+ hours of work over the past 7 days, which left no time for this unimportant nonsense. Glad to know I was missed, though. 🙂 Kiss, kiss…
80 hours of work? Chili convention in town or something?
Guess the toilets really don’t clean themselves.
Trying hard… hardly… I haven’t the time to devote to this nonsense. I do appreciate your vote of confidence. Keep spurting.
Lotta comments here for somebody who hasn’t the time to devote to this nonsense, Timmy boy. Besides, I seem to remember your having administrative privileges here, which means you’re actually all about this nonsense. It also means Nicole now understands who was fucking with her comment availability earlier.
Get a life and read above since you are blocking my posts you little coward
I had to look at the picture you posted, because anyone who is as egocentric as you, deserves an evaluation. Jesus that fake blonde hair is heinous. Honey, you are the type of girl that looks fake and relies heavily on the cosmetics counter, to project some sense of greater self worth. Do not post that photo as some sort of bragging right. That photo could be two clicks away from a mugshot of one of the dolls on main south, or piedmont.
Nicole, are you retarded? No seriously… I’m beginning to feel bad, like perhaps you are on the spectrum or something? Asberger’s, mild autism? Socially speaking, people who don’t have some sort of developmental delay don’t act the way you do. Maybe you are just some 15 year old troll blogging out of your parents basement. That would explain a ton.
Part of my life Tim, is to stand up for animal rights. I’m do not believe in animal cruelty. That is my charity. I am sensitive to this. If you were seeing a cat shivering in the cold dying, would you ignore this or help? I would help, I am a Christian as well as an animal activist, a woman, a scholar, “hot”, and many other things that women can be. Open your eyes and realize that people’s lives can be about helping make the earth a better place by helping creatures less fortunate than themselves. As for human cruelty…You can see it on here, and see me standing up for myself. I am strong, not sensitive to these things, only towards the meek who I help.
I don’t like cats, they are dirty, nasty, foul little creatures, who if given the ability to instantly grow two times my size, would eat me or you in a hot second. So, I guess the feline would freeze on my watch. Now a dog on the other hand, I’d save a dog from freezing in the cold any old day of the week. Regardless, I do appreciate your judgement of my timed vocabulary skills, but I can confidently say that two hours of my typing would yield a dissertation. Nobody wants that.
Mr. “Turtleboy” and I do mean “boy” You obviously require a website to boost y our ego and or give you a sense of accomplishment in your “writing career”. You will have to excuse my excessive use of quotes as it can not be helped. I am many things. Call me a “Hippie” if you wish. That is not, by any means an insult. I dare you, you little coward. hiding behind the face of a cartoon turtle…..to watch just ONE u-tube video of my choosing of an innocent animal being slaughtered alive for FOOD in this factory farming industry. And you are right I was “sheltered” as a child. I did not know about the factory farming as a child, I did know about ethical farming practices however. I have educated myself, and recently become a vegetarian. I think that these women who work at Hooters are beautiful but are also many other things. Unfortunately this restaurant does not broadcast these things first and foremost. I have must to say on the topic of feminism that would probably go right over your head. My assumption about you, (since you made many about me, )is that you are a 20 something year-old who has failed at a writing career. I would try and educate you in the ways of feminism and or communicating your ideas to a broader audience besides mindless sexist men, but obviously you would rather COPY AND PASTE MY WORDS FOR YOUR PAGE IN ORDER TO GET RATINGS. DO I GET A CUT? You probably won’t even paste this since it will display your utter weakness as a writer and human being. I’d like to meet with you one on one. As soon as possible. Lets call it a meeting of the minds. I do not take kindly to someone judging my character based on a few lines and boasting about them on his lame website. I heard about your comments from a family member who lives in Northborough. She is a vegan and I was supporting her by writing these comments. Please let me your private e-mail and we can set up a time and place. I will never give you my real name. You don’t deserve it. I am a scholar, a professional, and as you will see in person the hottest “hippie” you have ever seen. My husband (a real writer ) will be with us. I look forward to our meeting, if you are brave enough…………. Then you’d have a REAL interview to write about…….
I agree, sweetness! Me, I’ve been a vagitarian my entire life! 😀
Keep up on the Herpes medication
Nicole Galvin. Wasn’t too hard to figure out through FB. Have a nice day! 😀
Oh did I hit a nerve with the herpes comment? Sure and here’s my picture too
http://st.houzz.com/fimgs/1b2309e6039ae579_0218-w173-h173-b0-p0–nicole_galvin1962779.jpg
She’s clearly way out of your league, COB. It’s quite telling that in the end all you were left with was a weak attempt at outing Nicole, no doubt in an effort to silence her. Of course, unlike you and TB, she’s obviously not embarrassed about the positions she holds and isn’t afraid to voice them in public with her name attached. TB’s such a coward even the mere mention of his name or reference to his former career gets a comment pulled. I will say that I think she’s off base with the herpes comment, because you’d actually have to have had sex with a woman for that statement to hold. You simply cannot contract herpes from internet porn and baby oil, no matter how long you sit in your mommy’s basement.
Well, even the loyal opposition is starting to think there’s more writers. Progress.
Vegetarian? So still milk and eggs?
I drink almond milk. I do not have eggs.
Local farm raised. You pay extra, but it’s worth it. Plenty of little spots around the city in surrounding towns.
That photo isn’t you. We all saw your FB profile from the Telegram article. Stop playing childish games and get started on your blog that no one will read! 😀
Damn girl you are hot. Wow!
Hmmmm, chin omelet anyone?
I am writing to you since COB blocked me. He hides behind the name COB. Yes, COB there are many Nicole Galvins. Mine is spelled Nicole Galvan. If you can’t take it don’t dish it. Guess I hurt your feelings, how does it feel?
Thank you Finnish Goalie for being respectful. 🙂
I didn’t block you, sweetie.
Oh and I will be writing my own article about you as well, you have inspired me to write my own blog. Thank you for the inspiration. 😉
You’ve found your muse!
I doubt I’d call him/”it” a muse. My passion is animal/human rights. I doubt this coward will meet with me one on one. I will keep all of you updated. Who copies and pastes a bunch of comments, makes assumptions, and then doesn’t meet face to face when it is requested. A writer impersonator that’s who. I will let everyone know the name of my blog soon. 🙂 Thank you Turtle Boy for the forum.
It’s a blog, not the New York Times. 😉
So do you have a problem with all of the restaurants and supermarkets in the area or just the one with women in short shorts?
I am obviously a threat to Turtleboy’s reputation. He no longer allows me to post since I make him look stupid.
Oh wait it worked!
Now who looks stupid?
Yep. Still you.
I’m watching one of those u tube videos right now, while eating a steak n cheese sub. Not gonna lie, I’m kinda hard
ROFL
Dat wall of text.
Learn how paragraphs work, you mouth breather.
“Dat?” I like your cat picture cute.
🙂
Yes. Dat. It’s an internet meme. As in “dat ass.”
In this case I’m talking about the poorly formatted soliloquy you vomited out.
I am replying to you Wabbit since my posts won’t appear on Tim’s
Tim and Rena,
You are both cowards by not allowing my posts to appear on your threads. A feminist can be “Hot”, beautiful, smart, a daughter, a sister, a scholar, and many, many other things. Look up what a feminist is. I am not a vegan. I am a vegetarian. I am against the factory farming industry NOT EATING MEAT! Stop twisting my words like TB did. I had a right to defend the sensationalized response TB twisted up, in order to gain ratings about my post. He labeled me wrongly, as you are misjudging me based on your own biases. Also, I am not writing a damn Doctoral thesis on here. Congrats on the essay you wrote Tim. Great vocab usage. What did you spend two hours on that?
You keep referring to yourself as a scholar, a feminist, an animal rights activist, an educated person, and yet in the same breath, you reduce humans to the likes of animals, or merely mammals. Either you have selectively chosen to remove yourself from the food chain, or you resign yourself as part of said food chain. You can’t have it both ways. What I can tell you, and what I know is for certain, it’s that your garnered sense of educational superiority, does not displace you from said food chain. Ergo, be the foot stomping, sign carrying vegan activist that you are. Realize however, that once removed from the comforts of your domicile, and placed at the mercy of a much larger and insecure eco system, you’ll make a wonderfully tasty snack. A grizzly bear, mountain lion, garden variety jungle cat, pack of timberwolves, or any other natural predator of the human race will hunt you, and will invariably eat you. Trust me, none of those cute and cuddly little creatures will pause for a moment of spiritual reflection and contemplation, before they devour you whole.
To erase the genetic predisposition humans have toward hunting and the consumption of meat, is an undoing of 200,000 years of evolution. I applaud your plight, but a plight of this magnitude is not going to be easily accepted by most members of the human race. I don’t care how self righteous, and dignified you present your babbling scholarly wisdom, people are genetically programmed to survive and thrive, like any other species. One of those survival mechanisms, is the art of hunting. Another is the art of gathering. You have resigned yourself to the latter, which works for you, but don’t try to assimilate the rest of us into your realm of thought. Or at very least, don’t get discouraged by those ethical plights and defer to your garnered sense of educational superiority. It’s unbecoming, and has zero relevance.
In regard to your feminism, every woman who works at hooters, walks in and fills out an application. They also wake up, put those nasty Orange spandex camel hoof shorts on, and go to work of their own volition. You have an axe to grind, grind it on your own sex, for perpetuating the objectification of themselves. No one is forcing their hand in regard to place of employment. Just as no one is forcing you to patronize the Hooters franchise.
Turtle boy, keep on writing. There are those of us who enjoy people who don’t pull the proverbial punch.
Read above and stop being a coward by not allowing my responses.
“Classy town like Shrewsbury”
Hell yes! You better believe I’m going to tongue-punch every fart box in that place! And the wings are delish! Almost better than Auntie Dot’s! 😀 😀 😀
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS COB FLMAO!!!! 😀
I was concerned that there would have been too many fart boxes to punch for just one tongue but I was wrong.
Wait for it, wait for it… COB showed a lot of restraint here. TB outright baited him with this piece.
And he’s back with a vengeance! It’s a veritable tongue punch-a-thon.
On board with COB on this one. I have been practicing the tongue-punch fart box technique against cardboard boxes with pictures of really hot chicks. I’m sorry. It’s not the same. So I am going back to real babes.
In my dreams
Friggin’ lovin’ it. Best Buffalo Chicken Breasts or rather Wings EVER! Ice cold draft beer and the service is always really really really really REALLY good.
That’s a lot of reallys there BobnMic. Where’s our buddy COB? Plenty of tongue punch fodder in this article and not a peep.
COB will show up for this one. I have total faith.
I have no problem with Hooters going on Rt. 9, but its going to fail. Shrewsbury is chock full of families, most of them with disposable income that regularly eat out. Those families aren’t going to hooters. They DO go to Buffalo Wild Wings.
Sure, the dads will go there with the guys once in a great while, and the teenage boys will once they get a license. Not enough of a customer base unless they can draw from Worcester, which they won’t.
As a 30+ year resident of Shrewsbury I could care less if they put Hooters on rt. 9. What I find disappointing is that all we seem to get are chains. Mrs DM and myself don’t dine out frequently, but when we do it’s rarely a chain and that’s usually because were meeting folks that picked the restaurant. We prefer a local business with a unique menu and even better if its local ingredients.
BUT, if it’s going to annoy the hippies, I may have to swing in there with the boys to indulge in some beer, wings and ogle at some mediocre hooters from time to time.
We don’t mind, keep clogging your veins, less of you to go around.
Ha, I’m at he right weight, good cholesterol and quite healthy, thank you very much. Off to the deli now for some tortured beef.
I sure hope Nicole Gal doesn’t go to any other chain restaurant, because they aren’t exactly serving up farm to table meals. Does she get meat right from the cattle farm? Does she get milk at one of the local dairy’s? Where does she think most of the pre-packaged food in grocery stores comes from? Factories where the food is processed, frozen, and sent on a truck. Nicole must live a pretty sheltered life if she’s complaining about factory processed food served by waitresses in attractive themed outfits. I guess Nicole would probably object to NFL cheerleaders too, because they have essentially the same attire and probably show off more.
Sweetheart, I have not had a sheltered life. You know NOTHING, about me. I am an animal rights activist. I have more degrees than you can count on your piggy toes. Want to call me a hippie, go for it. but I wear deodorant and yes it is ethical. I wear make up, and my husband thinks I’m hot. I take care of my body and while, no I wasn’t on the cheer squad, I danced and have nothing against “cheer leaders”. I am grateful for all of the attention that my post got. Obviously it was VALID, and HIT A NERVE of the author. THAT IS WHY IT WAS RE-POSTED. Thank you. Please watch a You Tube video of an animal being slaughtered alive and then go sink your teeth into some meat. I repeat……………I am not sheltered. I grew up on an ethical farm. I am a vegetarian. I am a woman. I am a scholar, I am many things. I unfortunately am not just your example of “the hippie”
Baby, you sound feisty! How about you leave hubby at home and let me treat you to a tubesteak dinner at Auntie Dot’s tonight?! 😀
Ha ha you wish you fat creep. My husband deserves this intelligent, gorgeous, “feisty” woman. Oh and I doubt you need the steak, how about a veggie burger.
I am not fat, but I would love to do a little snacking on your “veggie burger” 😉
The only thing fat about me is the 10″ burrito stuffed in my pants, and it’s filled with shredded tubesteak and tangy queso! Do you want yours with or without Fromunda cheese? 😀
No, it was reposted because you were the butt of a joke honey!
If it was a joke to you, then that is a compliment. I wouldn’t want to be anything like someone like you. You are an internet troll. Say that to my face. I doubt you’d have the intelligence to keep up with me in a conversation that doesn’t involve insulting someone else’s beliefs.
Soooo you were equally enraged when price chopper opened further down route 9? Because their meat ain’t locally sourced humanely treated fare either. But go ahead, take to the internet and convert us all to vegans.
Animals > People <3 <3 <3
I don’t shop at Price Chopper and yes I am outraged by the factor farming industry and I post on those websites as well thank you
By the way we are animals…. people = mammals…. however your intelligence proves that some of use are lower on the food chain……….:(
Suddenly I’m in the mood for veal… fresh, young cuts are my favorite! 😀
Sweetheart?? I would think an animal-loving, vegetarian, hippie, feminist like yourself would be above using such terms of endearment. Anyone who starts off an argument with how many degrees they have and follows that up with how “hot” they (think) they are, usually doesn’t bring much to the table. You should brag to us how much money you make too, you seemed to forget that one.
You criticize TB for his writing ability? Might I suggest that you learn how to properly form the foundation of an argument, (since you clearly need some work on that).
It is a blog not a Doctoral thesis you moron
You’re the one who keeps beating the dead horse, (ironically), about how high falutin and scholarly you are, which leads me to believe you’re not quite as educated as you claim. Although, it’s very clear by your keyboard rage and need to repeatedly list out all the alleged super qualities, that you’re trying to compensate for something that’s missing.
Since when is Shrewsbury classy? It’s not Newport, Rhode Island.
Route 20 contaminates every town west of Northboro it runs through. If Edgemere were to officially secede Shrewsbury still wouldn’t be Newport but it would be solidly thought of as metro west instead of the buffer between Worcester and the nice towns.
Hooter’s is good. Hopefully it puts a cramp in that Buffalo dump. That place SUX!
“People apparently like to look at boobs while eating their food. This is how capitalism works.”
Hey! Isn’t that how breast-feeding works? Capitalist boob lovers are trained young I guess.
80085
I am a simple man. You put buffalo wings, cold beer, and lots of flat screen TVs in front of me and that’s already enough. I think the allure of Hooter’s is the regular joe going somewhere without his wife nagging the shit out of him. The scenery is just an added bonus to that.
Honestly- the food is pre-packaged frozen preservatives laden shit sent in trucks from hundred of miles away.
Why would you want to eat there? Shrewsbury has so many better options.
The women aren’t that hot and the food isn’t that good.
Just don’t go.
Don’t go
WAH! “Pre-packaged frozen preservatives laden shit” Welcome to America, you bone-smuggler! At least you get to look at titties while you increase your chances of heart disease later in life!
😀
Honestly, I think I’ve beed to Hooter’s 4 times in my life, all 4 were at diffrent locations. I was anything other than impressed. There are plenty of other, better places to get wings around Worcester County.
Wrong, asshole! Their wings are f’n tasty! Come to the Shrewsbury location and try ’em with my special white sauce! I promise, you’ll be hooked!
😀
One caution about ol’ COB’s endorsement of the wings at Hooter’s, this is a guy who thinks the creamed corn he tongue-punches from his grandma’s o-ring when her IBS is acting up is a delicacy.
The fact they have not been pitched out on Route 20 or in front of Hurricane’s every day says all you need to. This is “look at us” at its finest.
I don’t know what point you think you are making. But it’s cool that you think you are making one.
