How do you feel when companies do stuff like this? Are you grateful they're trying to help, or do you feel like they just want your money?

I think they want my money and I'm glad about that. It wasn't that long ago that just about any corporation that dealt with the general public would have done anything to keep themselves from being associated with "queers". Now we are mainstream enough that they want our money (and the money of those that like us) more than they want the money of the haters. Good for us.

When I first heard about it, I felt absolutely nothing. I'm a vegetarian (not self-righteous about it or anything, and think PETA people are shit) so I never go into those places since in my area, they never have veggie burgers. Then I saw a video about it on youtube and cringed. Surprised I can't find it in this thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBk AAortU_g

It's a good thing. Of course they want to make money. When you get a girlfriend or boyfriend don't you want what's best for them, but also want to fuck them? It's the same fucking thing. Shut the hell up and just let burger king do their promotional gay pride thing. This couldn't hurt the gay community any less than if they didn't do it.
