  • Why don't we get cool commercials like this in America?

    Black metal KFC commercial.

    Wait, where the hell do they have fries at KFC?

      They...don't have fries at your KFC? Really? This is right up there with learning that you don't have fries at your Taco Bells. Geez.

      As an aside, that's a rockin' commercial!

        Ok, that commercial is a riot!

        ... however, the comments section is what you get when you've got an unmoderated forum. What a bunch of twaddle.

        The fact that some black metal fan with "vampire" as part of his name is crying about how chickens have souls strikes me as incredibly funny, since the origins of black metal have to do with some serious bigotry that goes so far as to burn churches and murder clergymen.

          WTF is up with that bright green salad? I hope it's just a problem with my monitor or the YouTube compression algorithm.

            I've never heard of black metallers murdering clergymen.

              Black metal, in it's infancy, was started partly as a statement against the Churchrun state of Norway. In that way, it's somewhat like punk rock.

              I don't actually know a whole lot about it myself, but I watched a documentary about metal as a whole genre by someone who is a major metal fan and also getting his degree in anthropology. One part included a brief history of black metal and some of the forces that were involved in its infancy. I do know that there have been more than one murder committed in the name of black metal, but I think there was only one incident that specifically involved clergy, although in general, it is the church that was being rebelled against.

              I found an excellent blog comment by Manheim of Mayhem posted in November of 2006 regarding the state of religion and freedom in Norway and his feelings regarding it all.

                  No, our KFCs have actual fries. They also have what just might be (when room temp) the best gravy ever produced commercially.

                    I've eaten at a couple of KFC's here in America that have fries. They're rare, but existent, unlike the Taco Bell's with fries, which I've never seen.
                    Stop driving me insane, I'm already within walking distance!

                      It was bright green on my screen, too. Maybe a Halloween thing? I'll say the same thing I posted on there, though:

                      That is wicked funny.
