The Lo Zone

A groovy place in cyberspace run by author Lolita Files. Come on in. Bring some Pepsi.

 
Lo Fun Fact #1
"Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is.
Lo Fun Fact #2
I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.
Lo Fun Fact #3
Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all?
Lo Fun Fact #4
I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay?
Lo Fun Fact #5
I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!!
Lo Fun Fact #6
I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position.
Lo Fun Fact #7
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.
Who's The F*cktard That Came Up With This? Seriously.

I've seen these things advertised a thousand times too many, and I've finally decided to speak up. I mean, as if the fried chicken alone isn't enough to stop your blood flow (yes, I am fully aware of the dangers of my favorite food). Noooo. They had to pile on a heap-a sh*t at once, so you can have your stroke as you're sitting at the table eating.

That's right, I'm talking about those damn KFC Famous Bowls.

Sure, they might taste delicious (I wouldn't know...seriously; even I have limits), they're hideous to look at, and it's as though they threw everything at it, including the kitchen sink and the toilet.

Check out the contents of the Mashed Potato Bowl.


Mashed pototoes, corn, fried chicken, drizzled with gravy, then topped with cheese?????? My bad---a three-cheese blend.

Look at how they've got the cheese sprinkled on top like it's some sort of festive confetti. Yeah. I'm sure there's a party in your colon as it's all going down. The rice bowl is the same as this, except there's rice instead of pototoes.

I would have loved to have been in the room when this idea was thrown on the table. And it would have been even more fun/frightening to watch the idi-boob executives sign on to what a wonderful idea this new line of fried sh*t bowls is.

And we wonder why we're fat in America.

    Lo, Kris loves them. But think about it, it's a meal in a bowl so it saves on those three-sectioned plates. Of course for those who don't like their food to touch this wouldn't work. But I agree looks like someone has piled the scraps for garbage. But apparentl -- if Kris is any indication -- they are tastey.

    I am one of those people who doesn't "like their food to touch." These bowls gross me out. Plus, just looking at them is enough to send me into cardiac arrest.

    well, you know how this "bowl" thing was created...

    some KFC exec was putting some dinner straps in a doggie bowl and then, an "idea" popped into his head.

    "there's some good shit in this bowl, THAT WE JUST ATE!, just add some cheese and voila!!!"...

    there goes another great marketing deal from kentucky!

    Hey, don't blame the Colonel for this bullsh*t. I recall him being quoted back in the day when he was called in to corporate hq to test their new "gravy" recipe. He tasted it and, you should google this cause it's true, said, "I wouldn't feed this to my dog." Something about mass produced food eateries that I hate. That's why I stick to family owned or little places like L'Kesh here in Los Angeles.

    This is hilarious!! This stuff is the bomb!! I feed them to my mother-in-law all the time. But I'm trying to kill her so that doesn't count. But, they do taste good...if you leave the gravy off. LOL. Lo, crack me up.
