    Out here KFC has offered to fill the potholes, instead.


    But only if they can put their logo on the patch!

    Mmmm-mm, that delicious Penn Station KFC , with that extra-smoky flavour and side order of bleak commuter despair.

    Sounds like they tried to wing it, but couldn't keep demand cooped up, hen or now. So rather than KFC getting a leg up on its grilled chicken product, people are flipping it the bird.

    In other words, somebody plucked up.

    March in any KFC with a drive-thru, declare angrily that you just went through the drive-thru and purchased a 3 piece meal and you were not given a chicken breast. Do this bombastically, with a tinge of menace. You will get your chicken breast even if you don't own a car.
