“Now where will I ever be able to get four fried chickens and a Coke?”

Jake? Is that you?

I remember watching You Asked for It as a kid. And they always had Skippy Peanut Butter commercials. We’d would spend the next commercial in the kitchen making peanut butter sandwiches. Someone talks about something they’re cooking and I can’t wait to make it, too.

Glad I don’t feel that way about politics. I’ve been a Republican since Eisenhower’s 1952 convention and have never been tempted much away since then.

We are adding so much to culture by these.

Thanks for the poetic art.

McDonald’s is starting to suck too

That was kind a like a High Coup. Nice!

I used to love Popeye’s, but I can’t find a good one anymore. In my area they all appear to be poorly run and dirty.

KFC’s around my neck of the woods haven’t been any good in many many years.

There's been something up with KFC in particular. It was odd to see them launch a breakfast menu of all things, as though they were like any other fast food chain.

These companies are run like a mall food court, where one shell company owns all of restaurants and each is treated as a branded variation of the same slop.
