KFC chicken shortage blamed on DHL

Maybe the problem is hiring a logistics company instead of a postal service. They’re too fancy for themselves and forgot what they actually do.

I was going to say, the one time the spoonerism ‘fustercluck’ is appropriate.

I believe it’s blocked because a lot of people have a serious word aversion to it, it makes them uncomfortable.

Other common aversions:
-Blog
-Lugubrious
-Gurgle
-Curd
-Smear
-Chunky
-Squirt

Makes me think they need this place to take over their deliveries:

New phrase I’ve used since finding this place in Naples Italy:
Guess what?!? CHICKEN HUT!

When I used to eat KFC, and my friends would say, “Oh my god, do you know where that chicken comes from?”, I never thought the answer would be DHL. :thinking:

Because @beschizza hates it. BB employs a word filter which blocks the unpleasant wetness as well as various racial slurs, and if I recall that’s it. The actual answer, if I recall correctly, is that he added pleasantly-wet to test the filter, found it funny, and so left it in. So no granny-kiss-undryness cake or juicy-synonym chicken for us.

I heartily recommend capitalizing it with a lowercase l (ell) for the uppercase I (eye) as the font makes them indistinguishable. It is my dream that newcomers to BBS see that the word MOlST is always shouted – and attempt to follow suit, never quite learning why.

Hey thanks for some new needlepoint project ideas!

So many words. So little time.

Will not be sending a cross stitch sampler of the M-word-that-ends-in-S-T to Rob. They take too long to make.

surely DHL must be liable to KFC for the massive amount of lost revenue and stock? Delivery companies need a warning shot like that, DHL in particular. They get away with treating their employees like absolute crap and their service really is the worst

Yay late stage capitalism!
Only there do you entrust a vendor who burnt you once with your business because you got a low cost deal

Yeah people’s idiotic personal word preferences are totally a good reason to block a legitimate non racist/ defamitory word.
Thanks for saving us from m o i s t idiots

I feel for you. DHL misdelivered a package for me that was then stolen and when I tried to send in the claim form to the address they told me I later found out they were giving people the address of a law firm in NYC who sent me a nice note telling me that DHL had been pulling this stunt for a few years. Of course by the time I got the letter back the claim window had closed…a pretty nice scam

Irritated. probably from excess stupidity and moisture

I used to use a little shipping company based in the Midlands to transport six figures sums of goods from Sri Lanka regularly. They were brilliant. I wouldn’t touch DHL with a shitty stick.
