    I'm not sure what's going on in the world in general, but I specifically don't understand what's going on in the world of advertising. I feel like there are just a few junior high school kids, somewhat dazed and confused, that are at the helm of ad agencies for companies like Lincoln and KFC.

    "Hey, let's get Matthew McConaughey really high and film him just driving around all the time."

    "Now, let's have a different KFC Colonel every 8 days, and put him (or her) into a new commercial. Oh yeah, let's also get a fire log that smells like KFC and sell that."

    (By the way, the KFC Fire Log is sold out.)

    Millenials suck. And I am allowed to say that since I am still a teenager for another month.

    I love millennials.

    They are dope. And rad. And lit.

    I just wish I could get my hands on a KFC log.

    I once heard that if an advertisement doesn’t make sense to you, that means it wasn’t targeted to you in the first place.

    I have found Millenials to be very intelligent folks that understand far more than we use to think they did.

    And just as a side note, the ESEE Fire Log is sold out also.

    Probably true. Although I have a hard time seeing how Lincoln and KFC are going after young people. Not many brands targeting older people than Lincoln and KFC. Maybe Buick and anything advertised during Wheel of Fortune, but that's about it.

    I think they get a bad rap, as I am sure all generations do. They are certainly a unique bunch, which I don't mind.

    But everyone's getting away from the true meaning of this thread and Christmas: The KFC Fire Log.

    KFC firelog? What's it smell like? Rancid deep fryer oil and mass production chickens fed their own S#!T o_O

    It would be cheaper to just get a wad of money together and light that in the fireplace.

    Yes... in fact, I'm enjoying it more recently. It needs to be fried just right. I haven't been able to do it at home but there are two places near me that seem to have figured it out. :)

    Ugh. If you can eat that, I don't see how you can turn your nose up at the world famous bucket o' chicken!

    Sheeit... I was just joking. I don't think I even have a KFC near me. Haven't been to one in ~30 years.

    You're missing out! Nothing better than eating a chicken leg and having the grease run down your arm.
