Why do they all talk about bland restaurant chains changing logos like they're Winston Churchill standing before Parliament in May 1940? It's a little unbecoming.

I asked AI to write an appropriate speech for Sir Winston. It did not disappoint.

🎩 Churchill Defends Cracker Barrel: A Stirring Climax

We shall go on to the end. We shall defend our biscuits and gravy, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight in the rocking chairs, we shall fight in the gift shop, we shall fight in the parking lots and at the peg game; we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the breakfast hours—we shall never surrender.

And even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this quaint establishment or a large part of it were to fall under the tyranny of minimalist logos and avocado toast, then our loyal patrons across the land, armed and fueled by country-fried steak and nostalgia, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the old barrel and its faithful leaner are restored once more to their rightful place.
