Marriage Equality... Not that big a deal

Now a Food Blogger posting a picture of a Deep-Fried Double Cheeseburger on Instagram, hell, yeah.

That's number 1 on the Facebook trending box. Marriage equality is number 3. Sorry, LGBTs.

controversial here, it led to endless, non-stop flamewars?

Nice to see how times have changed, at blazing fast speed.

Whether deep-fried or not, they all deserve to be blogged!

And equality will soon be number 1. It's like the equality under the law: it takes a while to get there, but in the end it becomes inevitable.

... not two deep-fried cheesburgers, not two orders of fries, but one of each kind.

--- Thomas, Alito, Scalia, Roberts' lunch menu.

Something tells me he'd have preferred not to pander to the burger and fries orthodoxy.
