KFC's Policy

Last night while driving Miss Trash home we decide to grab some KFC for dinner. I knew the KFC, we had been there before. Now whenever I go to a KFC for some of that great chicken I usually get the same thing cause it is awesome. I get the ultimate/extreme burger meal with the burger as a Zinger with no mayonaise and replace the peice of chicken replaced by a chicken strip. Its not that much to ask for. I have been getting this same combo with these alterations for the last few years with no problems.

Last night however, I walked up to the counter and asked for the usual and then when I got to the chicken strip part I was slapped in the face with a "I can't do that". I promptly replied with "Sorry, what do you mean you can't do that?" and was told "Its against store policy. We can't change it". So apparently, every KFC I had been to in the last couple of years and ordered my combo with alterations(including that store I was standing in) had been breaking company policy even though all they all were kind enough to do it and add $1 to the price (that store included). What a crock of shit.

In the end I just had a Zinger burger combo upsized. Then while eating it, I had the privledge of listening to a 18 year old (According to what she told the security guard) who looked like she was about 15 who was great reprasentative of KFC. She had just finished and was out the front chatting away loudly. I could have dealt quite happily with just eating my zinger combo if only they offered to chop my ears off for free so I didn't have to listen to that little twits mindless ramblings. Although, here is a simple list of things I learnt that I didn't know about before listening to her talk:

- Everyone at schoolies is a slut and they all have diseases
- Education isn't important because she was smart enough (immediatly said after she said a sentence like "Can I borrow a smoke" but managed to use the work fuck 5 times in it
- Fresh chips are disgusting. Better if you leave them for a bit so you get steamed chips
- Re-edits of Justin Timberlake songs are amazing when the lyrics are changed to be talking about the shaving of back hair
- Drugs are horrible. Tabacco is ok because alot of people do it. Other drugs are terrible and thats why not many people do them

I'm sure there was other things but Miss Trash might remember them. She really really made me wish that I wasn't born with the ability to hear or born with the ability to make people explode at my stare. Fuck she was annoying.

Well, until next time, keep eating those steamed chips.

Cure of Social Networking

I know. It is an arguement that has been asked for quite a while (well, since the sites were created). "Social Networking Sites" as people would know have become quite popular. Now, for this arguement sake we are going to ignore the little ones that are insignificant such as Bebo and focus on the 2 big hitters. Myspace and Facebook.

Myspace. I love it. Its good. Easy to comment. Easy to see peoples pictures and comment them. Easy to view 'bullitens'. It is simple to use and has a nice layout. I like the build in flash music play that you have on there for your personal profile and can add songs that bands have on their profile to your profile.

The only downside to myspace is that people become offended too easily. You decide to have 8 top friends on your profile. Picking 8 people can be a hard choice. Who do you give this elusive privledge to and who do you say "Sorry but your too retarted" to.

Luckily. With a little bit of fancy html work on your profile, you can hide your friends list so nobody know and you can also hide your comment so that a sibling can't see comments like "OMG! Last night was great. You did so much cocaine. YEAH! PILLS! WOOOOOOOO" from your fucked up drug friend who you went out with for one night or the "I just want your rock hard cock between in my tight pussy right night like it was ast night" comment that comes from the town bike who honestly believe the world will end if she stops having sex for 5 minutes.

Now, facebook. Face book doesn't have the easy to use music player or the fancy profile layout creation but it does have Apps. Now, I know, how are apps meant to make up for all that Myspace has to offer. I thought for ages that facebook was crappy and just to make up for its crappness with millions of apps. Much like the football stud calls every 2nd person a fag to make up for the fact that he is secretly a fudge packer.

Well, i thought it was crapy until I came across the app knowns as 'Pirates'. This is fantastic. Its like a really basic RPG (Role Playing Game). You are a pirate. You sail around and search land for booty. Raid towns for booty. USe the booty for upgrades so you can attack other people playing pirates. The people at work got me onto it (Psssht. Sif facebook decreases workplace producivity by 10%) and they all play it as well.

Other apps include one called 'Booze Mail' which bascially means you shout people virtual drinks. Alot of use that is. Next time someone goes to give you one, be abusive back, when they look offended just say you are cyber drunk from all the free drinks they have been giving you before you cyber vomit on their shoes.

In the end though, after much deliberation, as fucking awesome as the pirates app on facebook is, it still doesn't match the quality of myspace. I will keep playing pirates though. Its awseome.

In the end, this blog is just for me to say...

Myspace >>>>> Facebook.
