Tho Burger King sucks, too. 3D Megadoodoo has issued a correction as of 09:41 on Mar 21, 2023 |

LOL I had no idea Hesburger was an international chain with hundreds of restaurants. There are two Hesburgers on the Reeperbahn in Hamburg (apparently the only ones in Germany) and I always thought it was a local company, just some dude who has two burger stands.

KFC outside the US i'm told is somehow good and every so often it tricks me into buying KFC and I'm reminded how garbo it is. The only KFC that was any good were the regional flavors and they cut them all so who cares. Go to popeyes. It's better in every way.

I got the cheapest Samsung last time round and it's great because the interior is coated with something that makes it super easy to keep clean. (Same as with the expensiver models.)

Are things actually cheaper on Black Friday? I almost never shop during sales because (apart from the few attractive products every shop gets like three of, all of which are sold to staff or staff's relatives before the store opens) nothing seems cheap.

I also don't get that one. I'm particularly gripey about these because they clog up the bike lanes.

I've bought quite a few heavily discounted things because they were being replaced by new models (or becoming "obsolete" like my loving great TV that was probably the last one sold here that didn't have Ethernet), but never during an "event" sale.

gently caress Caine’s, it’s objectively not fried chicken if they don’t have actual identifiable chicken parts (sandwiches excepted). And it’s subjectively even worse because dark meat is the best. In summation, Popeye’s owns, and Church’s can be shockingly good if you get it when it’s fresh (meaning after church in the long lines, thus the name).

KFC is trash, yes. Maybe Popeyes too, I haven't been in years. The thing is, we have some great local soul food joints, but they aren't chains with drivethrus, so I guess they get looked over.

And it’s subjectively even worse because dark meat is the best. The sandwiches are just 3 strips on texas toast. I give Cane's a pass because the original one is this absolute hole in the wall right off the LSU campus with a great vibe. Now that the owner is doing TV shows and poo poo, I expect him to become the new Papa John in a few years with some off the wall racist remarks which would not surprise me since founder is an LSU graduate.
