The Muskoxen

OK, so this *may* be TMI, but your boy is typing this entry from his toilet.  Not 10 minutes ago I tried KFC’s Double Down “ breadless sandwich.”  I should have known better.  Actually I did know better, but in the interest of informing the general public, I forged ahead to bring you this toilet blasting installment.

The Double Down (isn’t this a Blackjack or Poker term?  What does it have to do with a chicken sandwich? And on the topic of Poker: I’m sick of it already – it’s NOT a sport!  We don’t need TV shows associated with it.  Seriously, enough already, but I digress… I may have to another post on the oversaturation of Poker these days.).  Anyway, back to the Double Down… MSO Jess introduced me to the sandwich through an email she sent to the group condemning it.  I thought it looked amazing and vowed to try it.  Here’s what happened.

MSO Shade’ decided it was a KFC night.  I’m not sure why because I don’t eat KFC because whatever grease they use runs through my stomach and out my ass Usain Bolt fast.  I decided though that if she was going to get it, it was my duty to try this new sandwich.

OK, I'm sure I'm not the only person who's seen this, but it has to be shared.  Mr. T has an infomercial for a cooking machine called the FlavorWave Oven.  In a shocking turn, he's turned his gold chains in for an apron.  You read that right: an apron.  On Mr. T.  Do you think B.A. Baracus would have ever worn an apron?  HELL NO.  Unless Hanniball stuck him with a needle to get him on a plane and then put an apron on him... and if they did that I pity the fool who he sees first when we wakes up.  Anyway, Check it out:

How awesome/pathetic/sad/sweet is that?  How about his entrance?  He kicked down a door amid a cloud of dust (and damn near toppled over)!  DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN!  Not even a prop door can stand between Mr. T and some good grub!  I gotta get one!  And fast!  And not only does it bake flavor into food, you can actually BAKE with it!  I'd like to see someone make a muffin with a George Forman grill... take THAT George.

I kept hoping that at some point he'd go all Clubber Lang and challenge George Forman to some sort of fight or challenge.  "My prediction?  Pain!"

I'm not mad at him for trying to make money - I'm sure his Rocky III and A-Team royalties aren't what they used to be, but did he have to try so hard to blatently ride on the coattails of Big George?  And with such an inferior product?  Seriously - just look at that thing - it's huge and basically it reminds of of those Easy Bake Ovens that cook with a regular lightbulb that were so popular with girls and aspiring Emirrils when I was a kid... And take a look in the background... I've heard of product placement, but this infomercial took that notion to a whole new level - look how many FlavorWaves riddle the shelves... I guess they've got to have somewhere to put them when no one orders them, huh?
