Urgent Breaking News!!! : The Barack Obama Administration Approves Reparations For All Descendants Of Slaves!!!

Okay, so it isn't exactly 40 acres and mule, but KFC (with a co-sign from Oprah, oddly) is offering a free Kentucky Grilled Chicken 2 Piece Meal. All you have to do is go to their website and download a "coupon". Apparently you can only download the coupon today, but can redeem it anytime over the next couple of weeks, with the exception, not surprisingly, of Mother's Day. Clearly they know what time it is.

I had a look at the site, and will admit I didn't bother with the "coupon" since it required the install of a small bit of software for printing security purposes. If this all seems a bit too challenging for a thigh and chicken leg, perhaps KFC is increasing the level of difficulty to avoid such random Negro Nonsense as what happened at Popeyes, when they weren't even giving anything away free, merely slashing the price of their 8 piece meal a couple of dollars.



"They shoulda had a tractor trailer out back, with extra chickens on ice, ya' know!"

"Peoples [sic] have kids that they tryin' to feed... you mean to tell me that we can't feed our kids?"[1]

"They shoulda had a stockpile of chicken for this day!"[2]

"I was trying to feed my family tonight!"

"It's THE ROC!!!"[3]


So, print the coupon and tread lightly. Reparations (or as close as we'll ever get to em') and coleslaw await you.

Question: Were to able to print the coupon?

Get Your Reparations Coupon @ The KFC "Unthink" Website

[1] She is pushin' a gas guzzlin' SUV, wearing stunna shades and an expensive white bubblegoose. Yet she complains about not getting a $3 discount on chicken? Do better, Black folks. Please. What Would Obama Do?

[2] Why does the window sign at the :40 mark look like a ransom note?

[3] Sorry TD1016, that sh*t is still hilarious!

The youtube video saddens me on many, many levels. One, this is not a story. Two it plays to a stereotype but there probably weren't any intelligent bro's and sis's in charge to stop this story. Third the newscaster gets a jab in with that "cluck" comment. Fourth, why are they making it seem that this chicken is part of the survival of these people.

The coupon software told me I'd already printed my limit, even though it was the first time I'd tried.

Popeye's is good...but not that good. I'm quite sure that if they're closed due to a lack of chix the fast food restaurant just down the block will have some for sale...maybe just not on special.

@ AB...WHATEVA!!! LOL. You know you like us here in the R...O...C!

@cjames. Funny thing is Channel 13 normally does excellent news coverage and has quite a diverse staff, so this must have been a slow newsday in the area.


Can we get a break? I'm just sayin', at least they didn't have to call the national guard like they did in MN. Can we talk about how we're one of the Top 100 Best Places to Live in the country.

Wanda said...

you are so wrong for this blog title lol.

i got the heads up this morning on Twitter, so I got my coupon before the rush! i'll take a free two piece dinner.

I just uninstalled the coupon printer after I printed it.

@ TD:

The National Guard? Tell me you're joking. Tell me people aren't that psychotic.

Wave said...

More black people willing to fortify racist stereotypes. Good that KFC is willing to add healthier options to their meals. Tip throw away the biscuit and get mash potatoes without the gravy. Trans fat would negate all of the benefits of eating grilled chicken.

I can't get over the lady acting like without Popeye's there's no way to feed her kids. I guess KFC's trying to market this grilled chicken till people buy into it. I don't know why Oprah is affiliated with it though.

TD1016 said...

@ Marbles. I thought I read that's what happened in MN, when their Popeyes ran out of chicken.

Marbles said...

@ TD:

Googling "Minnesota" with "Popeye's," "out of chicken," and "National Guard" didn't get me anything that looked relevant.

THANK. GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AverageBro.com said...

The National Guard wasn't called in MPLS, folks. It's called hyperbole.

TD1016 said...

@AB, you don't play like that :).

And I guarantee that white bubblegoose is from one of the Arab (No offense gotta call it lke it is) clothing stores.

Hell, I work in the Department of Human Bldg and see people driving up in Beemers and Lexus all the time complaining that their food stamps aren't on their card when they're suppose to be.

I got a text from a friend tonight that she was KFC trying to get her yardbird and that there was a line and a 30 MINUTE wait.

I can't.

If you don't want to download the app, just click the "can't download" link a pdf will come up.

I think it's great they're getting people hip to their grilled chicken. Healthy fast food is still healthier than that other ish they're selling.

I printed the coupon and headed to KFC. The line was out the door and cars were sitting in the intersection trying to get in the drive-thru. Wow!

MissJay said...

I didn't hear about it until last night. I did try the chicken today though, without the coupon. It's pretty good. I don't know about going crazy about it but it's good.
