Open Post: Hosted By KFC’s Handjob Tweet
Early Friday morning, KFC Australia tweeted this ad to promote their new hot and spicy fried dick dish, I guess? The ad was harmless. But, this is the era of getting highly offended over every single thing, so of course Internet hos threw holy water at it and KFC had to take it down. It does boggle the mind that people in this day and age can clutch at their pearls at a joke like this, but Ryan Seacrest is allowed to unleash his monsters on us every week on E!. One guy who wasn’t offended, but not impressed said:
Wait, is KFC introducing jerk chicken? Was that the joke?

And of course, KFC issued an apology after pulling it down:
We are very sorry for our earlier tweet on H&S – we didn’t mean to offend and removed it when we realised we’d made an error in judgment.

What confuses me about the picture is that the pixelated part, I imagine, is meant to be a bucket, right? That don’t look like no bucket. It also don’t look like genitals. That’s what’s most concerning. I’d suggest that guy have whatever is going on behind the pixels checked out.
