Any people on Lake Street? That never happens. What's next--seedy businesses and hookers after 9?




Hooray local references
Secret Messiah
that was supposed to be angry people, by the way.

I hate the sense of entitlement people have over the dumbest of things. The customer is pretty much always wrong.

5 stars for the "used to be owned by the renounced heart transplant surgeon".

What happens when swine flu shuts down all the rib joints?

No, Tom Lyden.

The moral of the story is that all the money your parents paid to put you through journalism school was completely wasted.
glendower
Fuck you. Lyden reported the shit out of this. Definitely one of the more interesting/amusing tv news stories I've seen in a while.

He seemed like he was goading people, I hate it when news "people" do that.

Herr Matthias
There are black people in Minnesota?

Also, extra stars for the patronizing reporter on the scene.

This is a government ploy to get them all in the same place. Small packets of crack cocaine were handed out by white men in business suits and sunglasses.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say only on Lake Street.

Price and participation may vary.

Five extra stars for the guy with the Obama hat.
MightierThanTheSword
you do not MESS

with hungry people




Five stars for the girl who said she was going to get KFC. She sounded wonderfully indignant and didn't fall for the trap.
joelkazoo
These stars are for that comment, as well. KFC has better coleslaw, anyway.

This Popeyes is basically run by racist chicken nazis. The inside and the drive through are plastered with home made signs about how they don't participate in any deals, no checks or debit cards, have your money ready, etc. The whole atmosphere is more prison cafeteria than chicken restaurant.
mashedtater
i am cry laughing because of your comment.

thank you

Chibisuke
No DEBIT cards? That's crazy!

pastorofmuppets
It wasn't that secured for a fast food joint in a bad neighborhood. I can think of a few places I've been to with bulletproof glass and teller drawers to stick the food through.

The really crazy thing is those are always the places with the best food.

Frank Rizzo
let this be a lesson to people everywhere, do NOT try to take fried chicken away from black people. They may riot. How else will they feed their children?

"Thats alright we'll go to KFC!"
CornOnTheCabre
"The Jambalaya wasn't the only thing jumping at Popeye's on Lake Street - "

the crew are also throwing themselves off the roof for being associated with that pun

Nationally Advertised Specials are the most sacred documents of trust we still have in America.

I like when white people own media venues, it reminds me how much smartererer we are than those other races.
azazel
It's amazing to me how much more upset the people of Minnesota were than those in New York, like, they were ready to take up arms or something. In New York, for the most part, the people shrugged their shoulders, sighed, and moved on.

Or is the local news in Minnesota just trying much harder to be racist?
almo
but stereotypes exist for no reason! this is what my professor told me!!

I can't quite place my finger on it, but this video touched stirred something deep inside of me.

1:46 YOU ARE ON CAMERA

How meta.
Mordant
Jesus Christ it isn't even that good of a deal.

Part of me died when the customers started admitting they know their Popeyes doesn't take part in national specials and never has.
pastorofmuppets
Yeah that was some bizarro world logic. But you guys said LAST MONTH you don't do the specials! That means this month you have to!

pastorofmuppets
In the battle for introductory puns in Popeye news clips, "customers are crying fowl" beats "customers are clucking their disapproval" hands fucking down. Someone needs to go to Rochester and show those people what's up.
