What first world problem did you have today?

[CZroe]

That is weird, but it looks like you live in a non-standard Bojangles area (outside of NC/SC).



They have always had fried chicken at all times of day; breakfast, too. But I have noticed that outside of those regions it is a mixed bag of wtf kind of management and policy.

I ordered a box of fried chicken from one during the early AM in Palmetto, GA when I worked a graveyard shift nearby. It was nice to get dinner for breakfast, but their runny slimy wet chicken under the crust did not appeal to me so I only ordered biscuits/sandwiches after that.

Edit: As I recall, there was a waiting period. I think they are available as soon as they are open (10AM at his location?), but they aren't prepared in advance until later. It's like complaining that they didn't have Little Caesar's $5 Hot and Ready pizza ready at 10AM even though they are available to order at 10AM. The signage here clearly indicates a time range for them to be "ready."

Went into a Bojangles Chicken and Biscuit restaurant at 11AM this morning. I was hungry. I ordered for carry-out a 3-piece fried chicken meal. Order taker informed me they haven't made any fry chicken yet. I ask when do they start serving lunch and she tells me 10AM.

She goes and asks the kitchen when they are going to make some fry chicken and comes back and asked me if I can wait 15 minutes. I tell her NO and leave while eyeballing the manager standing right there.

Please tell me what good does it do to start lunch at 10AM and yet at 11AM you have not yet made your first batch of fry chicken? I could have gone to KFC and been confident in that KFC would have had some chicken ready for me.

Fried chicken is chicken that has been fried. Fry chicken is... I dunno. Chicken served with small fish? You confused them with tenses!

He just mentioned another terrorist attack, which has ballooned in the media business beyond what it's worth since that day. But yea.... I agree with you. It's terrible. I think it's also worse now because of all the social media bullshit too.

What's your problem? You don't want your TV to read out Twitter and Reddit posts from user lifsuxxx494 or hrthash420?

This Yankee living in the south confused the dumb fuckers that are Southerners. LOL

Finally deleted Huffington Post off my favorites bar -- it was a passable site to browse when out of other stuff.

Been getting tired of the max volume, auto-play videos for a while. However, the comments under one article sealed the deal. In short, no one bothered to read the article, just spewed talking points.

24/7, and better than KFC.

Can't decide if I should "invest" $750 for a season ski pass.

You've already missed the best of this season and next year will be terrible due to the ensuing la nina. So no. Waste of money.

For a 1st world problems thread, you motherfuckers sure are overly concerned with fried chicken.

Even when it's bad it's still way better than LA.

It's hard to find a good fried chicken place at 4 AM.

McD got rid of the 2 for $2 deal and is now upselling the 2 for $5 deal. Bastards.

 

[Sixguns]

Made all the stuff for some nachos, checked cabinet, no chips. Saddest moment ever.

About 21 hours ago (lower right):

That McPick 2 for $3 deal is BS though (top center). The only real choice there is two Bacon Egg and Cheese Biscuit sandwiches because $1.50 is 50% more than you'd pay for a large coffee, soft drink, or iced tea at this particular McDonald's. It's been that way at least a couple years now. Actually, $1 large tea has been that way at least since McDonald's introduced nationwide "McD's Sweet Tea" (they've always had sweet and unsweet iced tea available in this region). Going from $1 for a large to $1.50 for a medium is just idiotic.

Wait, aren't you in OC? Where the fuck are you skiiing then? You're not trekking up to mammoth for this "season ski pass" are you?

I'm in LA; the idea is that if i can spend 4-6 weekends per season in mammoth I'd do it. I'd rather ski less often but on better slopes. If I can do 6 weekends, that's a ~500 savings.

I see. Well then...based on this year's snow pack, you'll probably be skiing through the 4th of July, so sure, go for it. Should be able to find 5 weekends in the next 4 months.

If you're in LA, maybe you can tell me how the hell people on TV in LA can wear leather jackets outdoors during the day... 40 effing celsius. What the hell.

Spent a few hours going through my college notes, just to dump stuff I definitely didn't want and was a mess. Trimmed it down from 3 boxes to 1.5.

Worst part was coming across an assignment where I got low grade. That brought back a rush of negative feelings. Fuck you, school. Fuck you for making me feel inadequate for two decades and having so little meaning in real-life.

Because they're on TV?

In LA < 74 = jacket weather, > 74 = shorts and flip flops weather
