He then countered with “Please make women promise to stop asking if whatever clothing they were wearing made them look fat”.

The article doesn’t say. Maybe this goofy guy really thinks people will come to believe that chickens don’t have bones.
And I think he’s got a point. For years I thought that cans of “Starkist Tuna” were actually kissed by Hollywood stars.
This goes in the file with other failed efforts to salvage the language. It is certain that idiots control the language. Best you can do is use proper terminology yourself and try to stay away from the pigsty.
Boneless chicken “wings” are not wings - they are made from white and dark meat trimmings - then chunked, formed and glued together.
I thought they were made from pink slime.
But buffalo wings don’t contain any buffalo meat.
He mentions that “boneless chicken wings” are not actually made from chicken wings. He says it’s breast meat.
Woohoo!!
That was always one of my favorite Gary Larson cartoons.
When you allow the other side to play Humpty Dumpty with the language then you have lost the argument before it even begins.
“Call them “deboned chicken wings”,”
Bobbit Wings?
Is Chicken of the Sea chicken or tuna?
The term "boneless chicken wings" infuriates me. There is no such thing!
I remember being at Buffalo Wild Wings one day and the waitress asked me "boneless or traditional" and I was only halfway paying attention because I was focused on the beer list. So said "the first one" thinking it would be nice to try the new-style chicken wings.
What they brought me was basically chicken tenders. Breaded breast meat! Now I'm a dark meat guy and I like bones on my chicken so I was really upset with that order.
Boneless chicken wings...I have never heard of something so ridiculous in my life.

Thanks. I guess it was in the video. Anyway, I’m quite ready to riot over this.
The French have been fighting this war for decades. They are concerned that true French is being diluted by Anglicismes’, such as email, marketing Facebook or weekend.
Maybe the French can finally get it right and make 70 "Septante" instead of "Soxainte-Dix" (sixty-ten), I mean, what's up with that?
He has a point.
The worst chicken wing experience I had was ordering a pound of “boneless chicken wings” only to discover to my horror that it was made of white breast meat and lacked the flavors of actual wings.
Luckily the trauma was alleviated after I ate another pound of actual wings.
They are not deboned chicken wings but are actually cut up chicken breasts.
I made that mistake once and will never do so again.
