So, when I pulled up to the Chik-fila window this morning, the lady handed me my breakfast....(chicken biscuit, large black coffee, and 2 bottles of water)......but when i tried to pay, she got all giddy and said that the car in front of me had already paid for everything.

Random anonymous act of kindness, baby! Maybe theres some hope for clown world after all.

Embarrassed that I didn’t think to pay for the car behind me then and there, but i will definitely pay it forward and do same for someone at next opportunity. Unless they have a Coexist or Bernie sticker or anything like that.


Anybody else seen this? Is this a new thing? (Besides for soldiers & cops, of course, who get all their shite paid for all the time)

But how would you see the bumper stickers of the car behind you?

There is always the risk that the car behind you might look normal from the front, but the rear bumper could be hiding a Coexist, Bernie, or Darwin animal eating Jesus fish bumper sticker.

I had it happen at a Starbucks in Lawrenceville several years ago.
I have also done it randomly a couple of times myself since then.
Thanks for reminding me it’s probably time to do it again.

Happens often at Chik-Fil-A. I have had it happen to me several times and ususally turn it soon after. I once had a police car behind me and tried to do it, but the car in front of me had already paid for the police car two cars back.

I bet that you would accept the free meal even if the car in front of you had a Bernie sticker.

It's happened to me twice at Chick-Fil-A, usually lunchtime. First time I did the same as you and was so surprised I didn't think to pay it forward, but I did the next time. Thankfully the person behind me was only getting food for themselves.

The reason why you’re confused is because you have to have a sense of humor to understand why I’d throw a Bernie/Coexist jab into a post about voluntary random acts of kindness...

Move along please.

I've heard of this happening (a lot at CFA it seems) but never to me. Knowing my luck the first time it does will go something like this

-Hey sir, your $2 order of 1 chicken biscuit was paid for by the car ahead of you in a pay it forward chain!
-Oh awesome! Hmm, ok I guess I'll get the folks behind me, what'd they have?
-The XL Van behind you is a daycamp service that has ordered 8 nugget meals, 8 extra juices, and 2 #2 meals large sized for hte adults. That'll be $87 please.

It was Kirby in front of you. He buys for everyone. CMR was behind you.

Because eating CFA makes you a better person. It’s science, look it up.

My mom used to do it all the time. I do it occasionally. The last time I did it, the guy behind me had a $27 order for breakfast at McDonalds. I was at a poker game a few weeks later and this guy was talking about how someone did it for him. I said that was me man. What the heck were you spending $27 for breakfast? He said that was the day he bought his office all biscuits.

We are all God's creatures and we all need some free Chic every now and then.

Good thing is that will never happen. Bernie supporters area all about free shite...as long as they're not paying.

Plus, a true coexist/ berntard wouldn't be caught dead in a CFA. Thinks were safe to pay it forward

Play it safe with Full sized trucks(Diesel especially), anyone pulling a boat, Cars playing masculine music, anything that may indicate patriotism, cars with kids+both parents, Fishing poles or ATV’s in the back.

Dead giveaways: station wagons, subaru’s, Prius’s, or overall shitty cars..






But I wouldn’t worry about it too much because liberals tend to stay away from companies that are opposed to killing babies or stand for religious liberties
