Make sure to update your Ad Blocker settings to include the whole site.

I don't eat there anyways, but I wish I could even more not eat there now.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Maybe you should cook some food and deliver it to your local KFC - would that count?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Nah, delivering better food is a loss

Their "joke" to shoehorn in a statement about their 11 herbs and spices doesn't even make sense. Like, it's implying you are using an ad blocker to gain secrets? What?

The overworked tech dude who had to build this page just didn't give a single shit I guess.

It's reverse upside-down inside-out psychology

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Does that make it right-side-up, ordinary psychology?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure, I can't even quite picture what I said because double-negatives and mirror images confuse me.

Ooh That's refreshing, finally a hug emoji exists that doesn't look like jazz hands

[–] [email protected] 41 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The overworked tech dude didn’t have a single say on what went on there. That was the out of touch marketing team and project manager.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

See though, the thing is my idea of "optimal performance" means using an app without seeing any ads. So, no I don't think I'll be turning it off.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 7 months ago (1 children)

looks like we need ad blocker detection blockers now.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago (1 children)

A username named "Reek" had one but it hasn't been updated in years

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

It's blacklisted by uBlock Origin, I don't remember with which claims.

[–] [email protected] 61 points 7 months ago (1 children)

How bizarre. I mean, you’re trying to pay them money.

Don't forget to tip your pop-up ads

[–] [email protected] 57 points 7 months ago (1 children)

experience optimal performance

Phone immediately bricks due to the sheer volume of malware and ads piling into the browser.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

That's optimal performance for “put your phone down and go to the restaurant yourself”, which makes more money for KFC.

adguard for desktop, adguard DNS inside your VPN on your phone.

Load adguard for desktop with anti-adblock killer and fuckfuckadblock. And use brave browser with fingerprint and ad blocking set to aggressive and strict.

I very rarely get any bullshit notifications like this.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Went to some kind of restaurant chain once (red robin I think?) and there were ads as we were eating.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

Yeah they put ads on that little screen you use to pay. Also it never has any receipt paper loaded.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 7 months ago

optimal performance

WTF

[–] [email protected] 88 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Remember kids, adblock stops more than just the ads you see.

Also, fuck yeah I'd download a chicken tender.
