The Day I Lost My Faith in Humanity



You know that level of "oh, what the fuck is THIS now?" that leaves you stumbling, fumbling, bumbling for any sort of coherent articulation of your boiling indignation?

Yeah, well, recently I've decided I'm not even gonna try anymore. Instead, I've decided to deploy the "Gleason Face" to succinctly and accurately communicate those feelings:

Ahhh, perfect.

Let's give the Gleason Face a test run with a little stroll through today's headlines, shall we?

Blahblahblah - oil spill - blahblahblah - British elections - blahblahblah - Times Square bomber

Oh, what the fuck is THIS now?

"KFC announces 'Buckets for the Cure'"???


Read the KFC press release here.

To the Colonel's credit...At least selling chicken breasts to battle breast cancer makes more logical sense than doing it with ribbons, or walks and shit, which have little or nothing to do with tits at ALL.

Just think...while enjoying your big ol' bucket o' boobies, you're thinking how awesome funbags are. And that's an across-the-board awesome. So, I can see it, honestly.

Double Down = DD.

Oh, come on… they're not suggesting that every person eat the entire bucket themselves. I mean, those things are for like 4-6 people, right?

I think it's a great effort by a popular food chain to raise money for important research.

@ mizz and merts
... yeah, they just so happen to be using the cause to peddle more of a product that has been scientifically linked to cancer (research fried foods, fatty foods and cancer). it's laffable and absurd. the whole commercialization breast cancer makes me sick. especially when it comes from a company this evil.

can't wait for marlboro's "Heaters for Heart Disease" program.

"I think it's a great effort by a popular food chain to raise money for important research." Ah, yes. KFC, the ultimate in corporate phylanthropy. Yeahhhhhhhhh.

And it doesn't matter if they're suggesting that every person eat the entire bucket or not, their food is horribly unhealthy.

Is the irony of all of this completely lost here??
