But you don't buy KFC for the grease. It's a byproduct of the frying and skin.

You're not from the South, are you?

I had a coupon for a free KFC grilled drumstick so I had one last night. Yeah, still totally greasy.

Basically, it's still awful for you, but you can no longer taste it.

By the way, their new ad campaign for it is awful. I haven't seen any commercials (and don't feel like looking them up), but around the store were signs that said "Unthink dinner!" and "Unthink etc etc"

Honestly the problem really was that they launched this shit two weeks after April Fool's day.

Speaking of KFC the ones around me stopped serving anything other than original recipe after the original recipe strips came out. The original recipe strips suck, and it seems like they were just being cheap. Also, the stuff they do serve was always slimy and undercooked.

I'm not sure if they've gotten any better as I've not been in at least a month now. And there are no other fast food fried chicken joints like popeye's around here.

There's a popeye's right up the street from me.

I sat in the lobby for a little while longer and the kid came out and said, shit you not, "Are you looking for the Electronic Gaming Club?" I just said "No, I'm waiting for my girlfriend," but don't you fucking think that if I were looking for an electronic gaming club, and I stumbled upon a room full of electronic games, that I would have realized that I found it?

Kazz you see there are people that like being assured of things in a strange environment and that also do not consider being talked to a personal insult

WHO SAID YOU COULD ADDRESS ME, PEASANT

COME SEE THE VIOLENCE INHERENT IN THE SYSTEM!

HELP, HELP, HE'S BEING REPRESSED!

If one learns best through one's mistakes, why aren't I a goddam supergenius by now?

Misha · « **Reply #952 on:** April 24, 2009, 01:12:52 PM »

you're forgetting the caveat that it only works if you don't also make the mistake of never learning from your mistakes

Norondor · « **Reply #953 on:** April 24, 2009, 01:15:28 PM »

Nobody learns from their mistakes. They just keep making the same ones over and over, for their entire lives.

It might be possible to learn from other people's mistakes, so it might be helpful to know enough people to replicate all your personal failings through the actions of others.

So I usually make a point of plunking a dollar or two into whatever charity case my local supermarket is mooching for whenever I go. But lately they've been laying it on pretty thick; I got checkout people asking me if I want to donate like three or four times, under different names for the same organization. Makes me feel like they're out to bleed me, so fuck 'em, no handouts for you and your little pets. So now I get to leave the grocery store feeling pissed off, and also a little like a jerk for being a cheapass, which makes me more pissed off. Fortunately they've got angel food cake on sale for two dollars to the pound so I can douse my irritation in a heavy layer of sugary fluff.

Those charities at the counter are going to make you fat.

I had that happen to me once when they were pushing for mental disability donations.

"Would you like to make a donation to help people with mental disabilites?"
"How does one donate to themselves, exactly"

The akward silence was palpable.

So, due to crazy scheduling and a poor sense of time, I watch the Daily Show on their website. Those who do the same might understand the following.

Anyway.

They've been doing the same shit practically paint-by-numbers for cameras and printers for so long that didn't even register to me as anything except "unoriginal"

But yeah, pretty shameless.

Geo worked for RIM, so I blame him.
