    the Kentucky Fried Thread

    New studies conducted at Stanford University indicate a clear link between the "mullet" hair-do, and high blood pressure. - Scientists believe that the high blood pressure may come from long periods of elevated stress levels caused by the feeling that everybody is laughing at you behind your back, because they think you can't afford a decent hair cut. - well ... that, coupled with the realisation that you don't recieve any discount for only getting 75% of an actual hair cut.

    Rented? Heh, I've owned that movie for a decade or more. Every martial artist should have it for the excellent Enter The Dragon parody (you have our gwwwaatttitude!) and everybody else AND all martial artists should have it for Catholic High School Girls In Trouble. The rest of the movie is bonus material! And **** good bonus material at that!

    what about "They Call me Bruce"?

    any takers?

    I thought it was pretty funny.

    KFC Japan Celebrates 'Colonel Day' With Fried Chicken Computer Accessories, Jewelry
    posted on 2014-09-04 22:00 EDT by Lynzee Lamb

    If only there was a way to make computer keyboards and mice tastier, crunchier, and fried. KFC Japan is ready to fill the marketing void in chicken-based computer products with some limited edition items to celebrate "Colonel Day."

    Colonel Sanders is celebrating his birthday, and on the auspicious day of its creator, KFC Japan is holding a Twitter campaign where participants have a chance to win one fried-chicken mouse, one keyboard with chicken keys, and one giant fried USB memory stick.


    Tasty.


    Tastier.


    Tastiest.

    The fast-food franchise is also giving away 47 pairs of fried-chicken earrings. In total, 50 winners will be chosen after the campaign ends on September 24.



    To enter, Twitter users need to follow KFC, link to the campaign's promotional page with the hashtag “#KFCカーナルズデー” (“KFC Colonel's Day”).

    If you only glance at it, that 'drumstick' looks a lot like something else, and it ain't a piece of chicken, unless it's chicken that's been eaten, digested and excreted. And can someone actually 'win' with earrings like that?

    Karate Fried Chicken

    KFC is fairly successful in Asia because it's easier to get chicken than corn-fed beef (a basic requirement for most fast food hamburger chains). The KFC in China used to have a Col. Saunders statue outside with slanty eyes.

    KFC Commissions Tasty Martial Arts-Inspired Mural to Launch All New Teriyaki Boneless Wings

    'Karate-Kickin' Colonel' Mural Painted with Special Ingredient to be Auctioned for Charity

    LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 10 /PRNewswire/ -- To showcase the unique flavor of KFC's new Teriyaki Boneless Wings, Kentucky Fried Chicken challenged experiential artist Phil Hansen to create a one-of-a-kind mural of Colonel Sanders. To give the mural a tasty twist, Hansen used KFC's new boneless wings' Teriyaki sauce as his medium.

    "When we saw Phil's work and his karate-style painting technique, we just knew he had to be involved in the launch of KFC's new Teriyaki Boneless Wings," said James O'Reilly, chief marketing officer for KFC. "After all, the distinctive taste of the new Teriyaki wings delivers a one-two punch -- restaurant-style flavor at an inexpensive price."

    Karate Kickin' Colonel

    It wouldn't be a KFC product without some sort of secret, and Hansen's mural is no different. Hansen, from Eden Prairie, Minn., employed a specially concocted 'paint' made from Teriyaki sauce to create an image that tastes as good as it looks.

    Drawing inspiration from the Japanese martial art to reflect the origins of the Teriyaki sauce, Hansen used his unique 'karate-painting' technique by coating his hands and feet (and even his cheek at one point) in the 'paint' and karate chopping, kicking and head butting a wall-sized canvass.

    A minute-long film posted on YouTube shows the mural's eight hour production in high speed, finally revealing Colonel Sanders in mid karate kick. To view the video, visit http://www.kfc.com/ or http://www.youtube.com/justanotherphil. The finished painting will be auctioned on eBay with proceeds benefiting Colonel's Scholars, a charitable program providing students nationwide with much needed college scholarships.

    Teriyaki Boneless Wings, the latest innovation from KFC, are boneless 100% chicken breast, marinated and breaded in KFC's special seasonings and fried to crispy golden perfection. Then, they are fully dipped in KFC's Teriyaki sauce, the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. The new Teriyaki Boneless Wings Combo (six boneless wings, potato wedges and a medium drink) will be available starting July 10 and priced at $3.99, plus tax. Prices may vary by location.

    Fried chicken takeaway called 'Hitler' opens in Thailand and comes complete with logo of Nazi leader in a bow tie
    Bizarre restaurant opened last month in Bangkok
    Images of Hitler have also been seen on t-shirts in Thailand
    By DAILY MAIL REPORTER
    PUBLISHED: 04:54 EST, 5 July 2013 | UPDATED: 04:54 EST, 5 July 2013

    Schoolchildren dressing up as Nazis and a billboard advert showing Hitler were just the start.
    Thailand's obsession with so-called 'Nazis chic' just won't go away - and now a fried chicken takeaway called Hitler - complete with a logo showing the Nazi leader in a bow tie - has opened its doors.
    The bizarre restaurant opened last month in Thailand and images of it are doing the rounds on Twitter as shocked customers take photos of the offensive eatery.

    The fascist dictator's head has been grafted onto the body of bow-tie wearing Colonel Sanders, the founder of KFC.

    Among the grub on sale includes fried chicken and chips, burgers and kebabs.

    Londoner Andrew Spooner, who spotted the takeaway, tweeted: 'Very bizarre Hitler Fried Chicken shop in Thailand. I kid you not. Complete with pic of Hitler in bow tie.
    Alan Robertson, 43, who lives in Bangkok, said: 'The place opened last month and nobody quite knows what to make of it.
    'I went in for a bite last week and got some fried chicken, which was pretty good, and asked the guy behind the counter why it was called Hitler.
    'He just shrugged his shoulders and said the owners had thought it was good image.'
    Cartoon pandas, Teletubbies and Ronald McDonald have all been spotted on show around the capital Bangkok.
    The craze has seen more and more teenagers strutting around in T-shirts bearing cartoonish images of the Nazi dictator.


    'Nazi chic': A shocking new trend has seen Bangkok flooded with cartoonish images of Hitler - including a popular design in which the dictator is merged with red-haired McDonalds mascot Ronald McDonald



    Incongruous: Cartoon pandas and Teletubbies are among the characters merged with Hitler in the bizarre fashion trend. The designs feature a characteristic vicious expression and variety of Nazi symbols.


    Popularised: Thai Shopkeepers admit that foreign tourists often complain about their Hitler kitsch merchandise - but say the t-shirts are extremely popular with young people

    In a particularly popular design, Hitler is transformed into a cartoon Ronald McDonald, the fast-food chain's clown mascot, sporting a bouffant cherry-red hairdo and a stern look.
    On another T-shirt the Führer is shown in a lovely panda costume with a Nazi armband.
    In September 2011 in the northern city of Chiang Mai, a group of high school students showed up for sport day in homemade Nazi uniforms, complete with swastika armbands and toy guns.
    Leading them was a teenage girl dressed in a faux SS uniform with a fake Hitler mustache.
    Locals cheered the students merrily from sidewalks as foreign tourists reportedly looked on aghast.
    In 2009, a waxworks museum in the seaside resort town of Pattaya advertised itself with a giant billboard featuring the Führer with the legend in Thai: 'Hitler is not dead!'
    In 2007, hundreds of students at a Bangkok school staged a similar Nazi-themed costume parade.
    Following international outcries, teachers at both schools apologised, saying they had no idea the students had planned to dress up as Nazis.
