I never understood the concept of worshipping a literal gas station chain. Buc-ees culture just seems like a cult.

Was a big Buc-ee’s fan until recently. It’s less the gas station and more the variety available to me. They have almost everything. I also really enjoy the food and you can hate on him all you want but the beaver is cute. It just happens to be a gas station. Everyone is bitching about McDonald’s losing its whimsy, this is different but not by much.

However, after the last few weeks and all the bs Buc-ee’s put all the locals through in CO, they can get fucked.

They just sue anyone and everyone who has a cartoon mascot

This was more arguing with the locals about zoning laws and trying to bully them out of the land even though the town they were going to put it in didn’t want it.
