I think what she means is they don't have any chicken already cooked, so you have to wait up to 15 minutes for them to cook something fresh.

Yes, usually they've got a bunch stored in warming racks.
That was why they were such a haven for low grade food poisoning back in the day. They've changed their policies in that regard, and therefore don't keep as much of it pre-cooked today... so if they hit a meal rush, you'll probably have to wait for it to cook.

Yep. Although, we would usually go to pick some up about 7:30ish on a Saturday night. Having it happen once or twice, eh, understandable. But it started to become a running joke that they'd have nothing available during off-times either, so we just swore off KFC for good. I rather like Popeye's biscuits better anyhow.

Up here my preference is Lee's Chicken, though there are only a few around.
I too have experienced standing around for 15 minutes at a KFC waiting for the next batch of chicken to finish. I was not happy.

I haven't eaten from KFC or MacDonalds in like, half a lifetime. Seriously, 1999/2000 time. I made a decision and I stuck to it.
I do enjoy a cheeky Nandos from time to time, though. The Super-Dirty Chicken to KFC's Dirty Chicken.

You guys apparently need to move to Asia. There the KFC chicken flows freely and generously, and is damned tasty.

I honestly don't like fried chicken all that much. When I do want it I normally get it from the two older ladies who work at the Publix near the lakehouse. They do a great job.

KFC was good when I was a kid, because they used fairly good quality chicken and the spice mix on the original recipe was genuinely savory. Somewhere along the line they started using absolute shit chicken from bottom-of-the-barrel battery farms, they modified the spicing to make it less tasty, and started making the chicken even more greasy and nasty in how they prepped it. Plus most KFC outlets became just about the dirtiest of all the fast food places I've been too--like, stomach-churning.
There's a chain of four donuts-and-fried-chicken places in Philly that's just great--they have a chicken with harissa and za'tar spicing that is fantastic and an Asian-inflected 'wet' chicken with a chili-garlic glaze that's also great. Federal Donuts. Worth stopping in town for if you're in the mid-Atlantic, just get there by about 1pm or so, because when they're out of chicken and donuts for the day, that's it, they're done.

But I have a high blood pressure. Around 165. Doc told me if I don't quit, I might not live past 40.
Yeah, that's pretty high. The important thing to remember about why high blood pressure is bad for is because the higher it is the more damage it does to almost all of your internal organs. When that damage heals you have a tiny bit of scar tissue. Obviously, as time goes on you get more and more of this scar tissue until you reach the point that stuff just stops working. That's a pretty loose explanation for a lot of different things that go on, but yo get the picture. I think one of the ways that the health promotion part of our industry fails is they abstract the results of hypertension and diabetes too much. They say it's "bad" for you, but if they explained all the different ways either or both of those just wreck your body people would be horrified. Honestly, I'd rather work in a coal mine than have poorly controlled diabetes.

I've also found Hammond's Colonel to be creepy in a very GW Bush way (though I did like Chicken inna biscuit chicken inna bean song).
And just like that we have Norm MacDonald as the Colonel and he's awesome.
Also, having a guy named MacDonald as the mascot of a McDonald's competitor is very Norm subversive.

That video of leboueuf in particular has been a thing to mash up since he went crazy in front of a green screen. There's some pretty good ones out there but this one is more subtle and inspired In its execution.

Is there some reason you keep editing your last post with vaguely only sorta funny pics instead of just.. making a new post? It's making me think something is wrong with the boards since I keep seeing a "new posts" alert under a bunch of un-updated threads.
