AGREED! When I’m in Korea for long periods of time and I want some American food I go straight for the KFC.

I have no idea what any of that had to do with an article that reviews a fast food burger.

I think Sharp might be trollin’!

Earlier today, I read China ex-pat lit that was about the author’s obsessive former Chinese mistresses and found it stereotypical, played out, and boring for being written by someone who considers themselves a real writer. This evening I find this and L’dMAO and read excerpts to my wife. I like this blog.

So you’re proud to be an American. The US is ranked: 48th innaft mortality, 72nd overall health, 44th freedom of the press, 55th literacy, 35th voter turn-out. Babies born to unwed mothers: Blacks 72%, Latinos 66%, Native Americans 53%, Whites 29%, Asians 17%. We’re fascists with troops in 155 of the 195 countries. We preach pro-life while murdering women and children with drones. We have CIA torture camps like Abu Ghraib in four other countries.

KFC China menu grows more Chinese by the week/month. In there recently, they seem to be promoting a series of ‘gaifan’ type meals, all around 30 yuan, for the likes of breaded chicken cutlet with curry rice etc The classic fried chicken/hot wings stuff is still there in its usual location but has zero pride of place on the menu. I wonder if its a condition of the franchise that they have to keep it, coz they don’t seem to be marketing any of the stuff you actually associate with KFC: namely, kentucky fried chicken. I just ordered my original recipes chicken and wings and enjoyed that on my own. Those people don’t know what they’re missing!

Truly funny and inspiring, not to mention absolutely relevant. And I’d say McDs were Republicans and BK (unmentioned here, sadly) were Dems — they’re much better but get less press. Whereas the fucktards at Mickey D’s suck up all the oxygen in the room so the ones left with brains can’t survive. Bravo, sirs! Oh, and more please…

By the way, this was fucking hilarious. These guys truly do set an unacheivable standard for ridiculousness and stupidity.

I personally don’t take sides on bipartisan struggles such as this. Take for example the one we all hold near and dear to our hearts back in the home land. Both sides make valid points but in the end, they’re all a bunch of insufferable pricks, as are the majority of their followers. Now McD and KFC aren’t nearly on that scale, but likewise, while they do have some tastey food at each establishment, I inevitably end up with either the shits or a just an upset stomach for at least a little while.

Enjoyed this. Though personally, i’m firmly in the kfc china camp, great admirer of the colonel’s unwavering pan-Asian hegemony: a chicken zinger at 4am in the backwaters of guangdong? Inspired. Up-water on the Mekong, with a craving for a family bucket? Yessiree. Popcorn chicken in the suburbs of Seoul? Okay Bubba. Still, partisan preferences tend to be installed at a young age, and this one just happens to chime with own my longstanding fondness for the South.

A visiting Brit who stayed with me last week loved the thing. He called the tangy mayo sauce “magic sauce.” However he also noted that the thing tasted like he just dug his teeth into a salt mine.
