Why?

Thank you for the inquiry.
I find it fairly ethnocentric to call this "Terrible". By your "western" standards I think you are comparing it to what is "normal" for you and not what is "normal" for their society. I understand that the countries where this would be made/popular, it is the cats ass and they eat it up like KFC Gravey.
Thats why I changed it. Although it does seem subjective to whoever is watching it, thats why I changed it.
Hopefully that makes sense to you.


Yep, makes sense that you would have that view, totally.

I had a similar experience with some homemade napalm and a KFC bucket full of water.

"KFC to the rescue!!"

Fixed and thanks.

We have a Taco Bell here twined in the same buildings as KFC.
That has got to be the worst food I've ever had from a fast food place. and don't get me started on the salt content - I've never been able to finish anything from there because of the salt.

I guess it isn't, but sounds like Peter Serafinowicz (Shaun of the Dead) pitched it as such:

Love it. Surely this isn't a real commercial? It's not doing the KFC brand any favors if it is.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Lol this is pritty funny ,
I do however think its strange how culturally its ok to laff and beliitel fat people but it would be socially unacceptable to mock sum one that is anorexic.
Im pritty sure most people would rather not be fat/obise ( to the exstent that its crippling) and its due to phisoligy , depresoin , lack of education or other factors largely outside of the individuals control as to why they end up super fat.


I'm not referring to slightly overweight people here, disclaimer;

I'm sorry but i don't believe that. I'm fairly sure only a very small amount can blame physiology. Depression perhaps, but i'd say from my experience only a small fraction of depressed people turn to COPIOUS (and let's face it, that's what it would require) eating to help them out.

Lack of education i don't believe whatsoever - no one is gonna turn round and go "Hang on, what? Eating 3 buckets of KFC a day makes you fat? WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME! I'VE WASTED MY LIFE!" Haven't humans known about food (too much = fat, too little = starvation) almost as a basic instinct but certainly as a learned property of that thing we crave from birth? Could a human REALLY go for a day without reading, hearing or otherwise gleaning some knowledge of calories or weight gain in the current world?

Maybe i'm wrong, i find it as hard as anyone to lose weight but i just make a plan and stick to that plan. And the people who sit there (other than medical problems) i just think - not enough willpower. Just get up and do it.

@MaxWilder - i've had to lose weight in the past (due to depression, no less, but only because the tablets caused me to retain weight), and it's simple maths - if you burn more calories than you take in, you use up some of the energy that your body has stored (energy has to come from somewhere). Willpower is all you need, and exercise/diet becomes easier the longer you keep it up, it becomes habit. As for eating healthily - surely not? I can get food which would last me for 3 or 4 days of decent eating for the same price that it would cost me to get a KFC meal. And if we're talking a KFC meal suitable for someone weighing 350 pounds then i could feed myself for over a week i think. I don't think it's that hard unless you are one of the very few people who have something medically wrong with them.

Or am i wrong and "lack of willpower" is now seen as something that you can't help? Because i've always seen lack of willpower as lazyness. I feel almost like it's getting too easy to blame a label. I would get up and exercise but i've got <x>. Maybe you have willpower but it's not my fault, i have <y>. Am i a bastard for thinking that, no, i feel the same way, i don't want to move - humans like electrons want to be in their lowest energy state. But i just god damn do it anyway.

This is almost as whack as those commercials for KFC that M.C. Hammer did back in the 80's-Oh wow-It was here on Videosift!

Which is part of the story behind Colonel Sanders and the racism behind KFC.

@ant, they toss fried chicken into his case. Here is some info from Wikipedia on fried chicken and it's relationship to African American stereotypes.
Since the American Civil War, traditional slave foods like fried chicken, watermelon, and chitterlings have suffered a strong association with African American stereotypes and blackface minstrelsy. This was commercialized for the first half of the 20th century by restaurants like Sambo's and Coon Chicken Inn, which selected exaggerated depictions of blacks as mascots, implying quality by their association with the stereotype. Although also being acknowledged positively as soul food today, the affinity that African American culture has for fried chicken has been considered a delicate, often pejorative issue. While the perception of fried chicken as an ethnic dish has been fading for several decades, what with the ubiquity of fried chicken dishes in the US, it persists as a racial stereotype.

My friends and I had fun in high school.

We didn't have many "Bullies" per sey, but there were a few groups of them here or there, and one friend in particular was an easy enough target because of how he looked. (He dressed in purple misfits plaid shorts, with a leather jacket, combat boots, and had a giant mohawk, etc.) and the way we diffused those situations were funny.

We were walking back to school one day from lunch, and these idiots decided they were going to throw a half eaten banana at us from their car. However, not one of them even seemed to be relatively aware of physics, so they decided to A) Speed up so it would hit with more force, then B) throw it at us AS they were passing us.
The banana missed us by 2 houses and when they confronted us at school we made fun of them so hard infront of a group of people that they just took off.

Another time (When he was alone) he was just walking the halls when their idiot ringleader was doing a science project (with a meter stick) and hitting people who passed by. He was walking up behind my friend and was winding up his swing when my friend just turned, pointed at his face (finger two inches from his nose) and just said "NO!" gave him a stupid look, and just walked away with the ringleader just standing there stupified.

My favourite (although, mean) situation though, was at an elementary school. To get to the plaza with the McD's, KFC, Tim Hortons etc. for lunch, you had to pass through an elementary school, and on the way back they were out for recess or something. So the two of us were just walking through shooting the shit with each other and minding our own business when the bell went and the kids started lining up to get back in.

One little idiot we passed by started saying "HA HA, LOOK AT THE ROOSTER! HEY EVERYBODY, LOOK AT THE STUPID ROOSTER" (because of the mohawk) I finally sanpped, dropped my backpack and started to charge towards the kid. He instantly looked absolutely terrified and raised his hand (wriggling fashion, to note that he REALLY wants attention) I came up to him, face to face, and just started giving him shit about "What gives you the right to make fun of people? He dresses the way he wants to, you dress the way you want to, keep it to yourself" etc. The teacher finally came out and said "What's going on here?" so I even told her "This kid here was making fun of my friend, I was having a discussion with him."

She actually thanked me and said "We're going to be having a discussion on this in class."

I've never wanted to get into a physical confrontation, my method of choice was to belittle the bullies. Granted, a lot of places this'll get you decked, but it worked for me as a way of non-violent confrontation.

In a perfect world, there'd be no bullies, and I'm one that advocates not using force, but there are unfortunate situations that do call for it. I feel for the big kid here, because he was put in a no-win scenario. He lets the little kid get away with it, or he gets in trouble for defending himself. I guess not everyone can be as lucky as I was.

Looking at this as "Its only one person not the whole group of people, so see him as a shit head" is still not a full analysis.

Taking the meaning of this video as blankfists' comment shows (a man is angry about ordering bacon in a halal restaurant), we have to wonder, why is he angry? Would this piss him off under all circumstances? Is this a result of him being religious?

Of course, we are not able to infer much. I would argue that, really, this anger is not a result of him being a 'naturally angry person'. He's fucking working at KFC! He doesn't get paid shit, lives as a minority in a white-based nation (Australia, the product of colonialism), probably doesn't have much dignity left after it was taken away from him, and thus didn't have much patience to deal with this crap.

The theme may seem at first glance religious, but this is a class/race issue here. I would get really fucking angry too if I had to work at KFC and serve white people

It's funny because it's true?
