Anyway, who goes to a restaurant known for seafood and orders chicken? Why not go to a place that is known for chicken?

Congratulations. The OP didn't say anything about not liking seafood, which was why I asked how old he was. I don't know anyone IRL that has never been to a LJS.

I'm real, alive, and I've never been to LJS. Now you know.

I ate there about a year ago since I hadn't been to one since I was a kid and have never felt so repulsed by a fast food place in my life.

So salty and greasy it was absurd.

In nearly vomited half way through eating it and had to stop and throw the rest away.

Never again will I eat there.

We had one combined with a KFC when I was going to college. Good stuff, I liked their meal with the chicken and fish combo. Malt vinegar for fries, tarter sauce for fish, and hot sauce for chicken? Godly. Too bad there isn't one where I live now.

I love LJS chicken but feel like my heart is slowly dying everytime I eat there.

French fries + gallon of malt vinegar = bliss.

Their fish with some malt vinegar on it and a side basket of crunchies (it's not on the menu, but they'll make you a basket of them) with malt vinegar and hot sauce is some of the best food you'll ever have.

Long John Silvers rocks so damned hard! I mean, usually the eating area is a bit greasy feeling (and the place stinks like friend fish), and the food is unholy in its calorie content... but it's SO DELICIOUS!

Today was the first time that I ate from Long john silvers. I ordered the number 8 which had 2 strips of chicken and couple of fries and 2 hash puppies. It sure wasn't the best chicken that I've tasted but it was pretty good. But all day today after I ate from that place, I've been craving for more chicken from long john silver. It's like they added stuff to the food to get people addicted to it. I've eaten stuff a lot better than that and I've never been addicted to it. I still want more chicken from that place even right now. Even though I'm full. How strange....

mmmm, hash puppies... wait... aren't those illegal? :Q

rofl. haha... I had it to "hash browns," then I changed it to hash puppies. I forgot to change the "a" to a "u."

You folks must have a much better LJS where you're at than the one here...OMFG! the place is horrible! The fish is greasy and doughy, the hush-puppies...well, greasy fried balls of corn mush suck anyway...(/me is a dammed yankee) and their fries are never done right.

Skippers used to do a great job with fish & chips, but sadly, they left Kahleeforneeya about 15 years ago...Haven't found a decent place for fish & chips since...and we've tried them from every place around that we find...

The trick to junk food is to gorge on it until you vomit. Then you bring a little of that vomit near your nose and when you smell it, you vomit until all that comes up is bile. You won't want that kind of junk food anymore after that.

Well, I'm not a big fan of seafood. That's why I ordered the chicken.

Our Long John Silvers burned down. You gotta love a restaurant that gives you crunchy deep frier squeezins'.

K, but that doesn't explain why you went to LONG JOHN SILVERS in the first place, unless you're some sort of food clueless pr0n-o-phile who thought you could maybe get a foot long with extra "mustard". J/K
