I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

A rando who killed one of his clients with sepsis. Hmmm. I'll just keep my teeth, is that an option?

We can make a movie about this. Two dumb thugs asked by the drug distributor to find food for a party for his 5 years old kid (or sex party, I have no idea what type of party has this KFC requirement more)

That's just what you do, though. Everyone brings KFC when they go to Auckland, but you have to do it in moderation.

"Hold it right there, sir. KFC? Ok, decent size bag, good choice. You're free to go."

"Whoa nelly, put your hands on the wheel where I can see 'em, sir. That is a *lot* of KFC. Buuuuut, it checks out. Go on by."

"Dear lord... sir! SIR! Get out of the car, now! That is far too much KFC!"

I think people in the USA don't understand that first world countries have better quality control with food and thus think their KFC taste is universal. Thus a 'better than our KFC' standard is just regular KFC standard elsewhere.

The KFCs I've lived near have uniformly been the most poo poo tier restaurants with terrible staff, even for low tier fast food. I think the US branch just doesn't give a poo poo about its franchises.

I'm so bored with the USA.
KFC totally went to poo poo sometime in the last 20 or so years. Not sure when it happened, but it’s very different than it used to be. I’m fairly certain that isn’t just due to me aging.

Even in Harlan Sanders' lifetime it started to suck.

"Once in the kitchen, the colonel walked over to a vat full of frying chicken pieces and announced, 'That's much too black. It should be golden brown. You're frying for 12 minutes -- that's six minutes too long. What's more, your frying fat should have been changed a week ago. That's the worst fried chicken I've ever seen. Let me see your mashed potatoes with gravy, and how do you make them?"

When Mr. Singleton explained that he first mixed boiling water into the instant powdered potatoes, the colonel interrupted. "And then you have wallpaper paste," he said. "Next suppose you add some of this brown gravy stuff and then you have sludge." "There's no way anyone can get me to swallow those potatoes," he said after tasting some. "And this cole slaw. This cole slaw! They just won't listen to me. It should he chopped, not shredded, and it should be made with Miracle Whip. Anything else turns gray. And there should be nothing in it but cabbage. No carrots!"

He's later quoted saying:

"This ain't no goddam Tennessee Fried Chicken, no matter what some slick, silk-suited son-of-a-bitch says." "

Every thread in PYF will eventually experience its own food derail, but yeah, honestly, chain fast food in America has gotten both more expensive in the last 10 years and, in my opinion, demonstrably worse almost across the board. I think the only chain food / takeout we still regularly get and enjoy is Domino's.

I thought it would be relatively easy to find some sort of chart, or a dedicated site, that tracks the course of fast food prices, but it's not!
