Only time will tell.
On some level I kind of appreciate KFC basically just doing capitalist shitposting by trying to step into every market in existence (sun screen, Lifetime originals, virtual novels, game consoles, etc.), but it also just makes me want to scream until I collapse upon myself like a dying star.
It's the whole Wendy's clapback Twitter personality branding marketing thing. See! We're cheeky and humorous! It makes me want to remove my eyeballs as well.
At first I thought KFC is doing a branded airfryer, okay probably not a bad idea, I can see that. But no, they are actually doing a console with a tray to keep your tendies warm in and I'm just like :what:
My friend and I have been trading "the junk of late stage capitalism" photos for years in our little contest for who can depress the other more. I think my friend has beaten me. I can't top this one. The last one I sent him was the "blue line bullet beer glass."
Yeah this is too good...
...until next week when Disney comes out with a bidet that plays a musical number while simulating a team of 7 Dwarves scrubbing your asshole.
I would like to have my asshole cleaned to the tune of "Colors of the Wind"
holy shit, I thought this was an invention of one of those hobby-specific parody publications
as a matter of fact, I still haven't truly accepted that it isn't
Is this going to be like that episode of community where they get trapped in the KFC space simulator?
KFC making a game console won't change the fact that their chicken tastes like shit. All of their marketing in the past few years has seriously just been one gimmick after another but I have a KFC and a Popeyes near me and while the KFC is always empty the Popeyes always has a line of cars going all the way into the nearby grocery store parking lot, so I don't think it's working.
Depending on the price this could actually be a cool product. Trying to think of what the fuck you'd use the warmer for though... Warm sake maybe? Use it to heat up ISO when I need to clean my bong?
Unless it has a lineup of chicken themed games I don't give a shit. I already store chicken inside my computer case, this is nothing special.
