Sandwich with fried chicken as the bun? Didn't Carl's Jr already do that? Or is that deep-fried bread?

― nickn, Thursday, 14 February 2013 02:33 (thirteen years ago)

KFC did the Double Down, although this appears to be a flakier breading

― mh, Thursday, 14 February 2013 02:35 (thirteen years ago)

Oh right, KFC. I'll bet the real ones aren't so flaky. It kind of qualifies as trypophobic / trypophilic.

UM HELLO

I just searched for Shamrock Shake to talk about how excited I am that it's that time of year again. SHAMROCK SHAKES ARE DELICIOUS YOU WEIRDOS.

I had one last week I felt mugged

― 乒乓, Friday, 8 March 2013 02:12 (thirteen years ago)

They can vary from place to place. I mean, I have like one maybe two a year but some are amazing and others? Not as amazing. I'm sorry you had a disappointing shake experience.

I clicked on the link and one of the banner ads was...

Cut 9 pounds of stomach fat every week by using this 1 weird old tip

In this case, that 'weird old tip' would be 'Don't eat the new sausage double beef burger at McDonald's China and you'll avoid injesting 9lb of meat'.
