Its Just Chicken!!!


OK!! OK!! This just happened and it was sooo ridiculous that I had to talk about it. So yesterday my mother came knocking on my door, yelling my name as if something crazy just happened and it needed my full attention. So I stopped what I was doing, and came to give my full attention, with the impression that I was going to be hit with some life changing news. Like someone died, or i lost my job, or we have to move, or something... -____- sadly i was miss informed. I open my door and she says, "Bryce Popeyes chicken is having a sale 4.99 for and 8 pce chicken box set. -___- really? ..... No, seriously really?...(closes room door slowly)... Im looking at this women and shes so excited for some chicken. Anyways I continue going on with what i was doing. Then today my mother asked me to run some errands, as she passes me a list of tasks to do, things to get, etc... On the bottom of the paper I see go too Popeyes and get the 4.99 chicken sale. -___- whatever,fine I'll go. Mind you popeyes is two towns over and gas is like $5 now.(just saying) But its my mom ill go. So i get there and the drive through line is down the street literally. "DOWN THE FUCKING STREET!! ITS JUST CHICKEN PPL!!! ITS NOT THAT SERIOUS!!!" So im in the drive thru line for about close to a half hour -__- "A HALF HOUR!!!" That is 30 minutes of my life i will never get back over some damn chicken. It isn't that serious!! So im in line and im looking at the ppl walking from parking lot across the street and walking to popeyes to get some damn chicken. Not one person is white.(Not One!!!) Minorities love them some chicken and im looking at all these beautiful black faces, and Spanish faces and all i can think is NIGGAS...(smh) All these people coming from god knows where, mad happy, over 8 pieces of chicken. EIGHT PIECES OF CHICKEN!!!! I mean if you were hungry, on a lunch break, thats cool get ur chicken boo boo but this was crazy i never seen so many black people so happy. As if it was the reparations day' and white people all across ct was giving away free tickets to a Jayz concert -__- Really ?? REALLY!!!! What pissed me off was that we had chicken at home in the damn freezer. Homemade fried chicken is better anyways. We didnt even get any sides. Just chicken! To top it all off. They had the nerve to have a sign next to the drive thru mic of a black women(mascot) smiling mad hard just cheesing.*ching* Why?? WHY!!! So i see what demographic they are trying to appeal too. Stigmas! People dont be apart of them, prove them wrong. All i pictured was a bunch of black people toe tapping and shining their pearly whites. That may be a little extreme but its true. ITS JUST CHICKEN!!!! BLACK PEOPLE STOP PLAYING INTO WHAT CAPITALIST AMERICA WANTS YOU TOO!!! REMEMBER ITS JUST CHICKEN!!!! The sad part of it all was when i finally get to the window all i see is pure Mexicans/Puerto Rican people working in the back; not even black faces it was pure Mexicans... *sigh* why!!!... Main stream America wins again i guess. *sigh*

Ha! It's a recession, playa! 8 pcs of chicken can feed a family of four and sometimes you don't have the time to be cooking fried chicken (although we know with mom that isn't necessarily the case * side-eye * The part about mom knocking on your door had me rollin. smdh). And I definitely hear you about Popeyes' problematic marketing, BUT I'm also sure you went to the Popeyes in the South end of Hartford. Lol. You're not gonna find any white people out there (unless you go to the movie theater around the corner), so I'm sure that also has to do with the demographics of the neighborhood. But alas, I agree with you. Black folks need to be eating less (fried) chicken and more vegetables. Sigh.
