Popeyes anyone?

I was driving a friend across town. He has been in Canada about 2 years now having fled Ukraine and its crazy war. As we were driving he saw a Popeyes place. In his broken English he told me that Popeye was one of his favourite cartoons. When the Soviet Union fell he was able to watch American TV and as a kid he loved to watch Popeye. When I explained to him that Popeyes sells chicken he was a little disappointed.

Never had it! I don't think they have Popeye's in Massachusetts...so I will have to fill out one of those applications! 🤣🤣🤣
The Popeye’s in the south are so much better than the ones here, imo. They just seem to know more about how those side dishes are supposed to taste.
@DrWatson Yes, in NOLA it would be, that’s where the company was founded. I first had it there in the late 70s, too, on a road trip to visit family. I remember thinking it was the first fast food chicken I’d tasted almost as good as my grandmother’s.

@bijouxbroussard Do you have your grandmother's recipe?
@DrWatson Yes. She used buttermilk, before "buttermilk-fried" chicken really became commercialized.

Exactly! I love it!

I refer to the sign, never eaten there
DrWatson · 70-79, M
That sign is a brilliant metaphor that applies to many situations: instead of griping, do something yourself to improve things.

I love Popeyes.

I assume that's an application for patience rather than a job.

some of the people in the comments are so mad about nothing and are completely missing the joke of the post 😐
InfernoTouch · 41-45, M
@Frostcloud exactly I find it funny they're talking about how unhealthy the food is. The post has nothing to do with how healthy and unhealthy it is. Society sometimes has trouble staying on topic lol
@Frostcloud That meme is pretty clever. 😄
DrWatson · 70-79, M
@Frostcloud I have experienced something similar with comments which surprise me on my own posts.

I think it boils down to two different ways of reading a post: Either the post is primarily about the title, or the post is primarily about what follows. The two readings will give two different kinds of responses, if the title is connected to the body in an ironic or light-hearted way.

Fried chicken is disgusting and incredibly unhealthy to eat.
Nitedoc · 51-55, M
@RedBaron And delicious!
RedBaron · M
@Nitedoc In your opinion. I find it greasy.
HumanEarth · F
That place is gross
Lostpoet · M
@HumanEarth I've never had Popeyes
