I just had a 20 minute conversation explaining to a customer what chicken wings were.

[1-hug-man]

Did you say that they were wings from a chicken? @cheshireinthemiddle

[cheshireinthemiddle]

Didnt work

[twofacetoo]

I can imagine the phrase ‘BUT THEY DON’T FLY, HOW CAN THEY HAVE WINGS?!’ being used at least twice

[cheshireinthemiddle]

It was worse

[bprinny]

Can you please explain in detail how it was worse

[cheshireinthemiddle]

Customer: what kind of chicken do you use for your fried chicken wings?

Me: im unsure of the brand, but i can check

Customer: no, what part of the chicken is it?

Me: im sorry?

Customer: like what is it made out of?

Me: they are chicken wings.

Customer: i dont think you understand my question. Is it chicken thigh, or chicken breast?

Me: it is made with chicken wings.

Customer: okay, you arent hearing me. Chicken is sold in different parts. What oart are you selling?

Me: chicken wings. The dish is fried chicken wings. Are you perhaps asking if they are boneless? They arent. They are actual bone in wings.

Customer: Im asking what *type* of chicken it is. You are making this way more difficult than it has to be.

Me: here, our menu has a picture of the dish. These are the chicken wings available today.

Customer: how can i tell what kind of chicken it is if it is covered in brown crunchies?

Me: brown…crunchies? These are certainly chicken wings. You can see the bone here.

Customer: can i speak to the manager? You dont know what youre talking about.

Me: actually i am acting manager until we get a new hire.

Customer: all i want to know is what kind of chicken you are serving.

Me: fried chicken wings.

This went on for 20 whole minutes. She didnt even order the meal.

Iron Fist fails to land on critics: 'Good luck, bingers: Getting through two episodes was a challenge'

The embargo dropped for reviews on Marvel and Netflix collab Iron Fist this morning, and it ain’t pretty. The 13-episode first season (arriving 17 March) stars Finn Jones (Game of Thrones) as Danny Rand / Iron Fist, a presumed dead martial artist who returns to New York City to try and reclaim his family business. Previous Netflix-distributed Marvel shows Jessica Jones and Luke Cage have gone down well with critics, but Iron Fist appears to be lacking a unique edge.

Here’s some pretty damning lines from early reviews:

Variety:

‘Iron Fist is the most frustrating and ferociously boring example of Netflix Drift [pacing problems] in some time.’

‘It takes forever for anything to happen on “Iron Fist,” and as it stumbles along, the uninspired production design, unexceptional cinematography, and painful dialogue fail to distract the viewer from the overall lack of depth, detail, or momentum.’

‘Good luck, bingers: Getting through two episodes was a challenge.’

Polygon:

‘I’m not surprised that Iron Fist isn’t a comedy. I’m surprised that it’s so bad. And it is laughably bad.’

Uproxx:

‘If Iron Fist was an otherwise boring series with a hero who kicked butt in exciting ways early and often, I’d forgive the bland expository parts in the same way I do for a lot of action shows and movies. And if Finn Jones couldn’t fight but was otherwise a riveting screen presence blessed with sparkling dialogue and a compelling character arc, I’d get past the alleged living weapon’s lame physical prowess. But when neither part works at all, why would anyone but the most devout, masochistic Marvel completist want to watch?’

The Hollywood Reporter:

‘Through six episodes, in addition to failing to introduce a main character I care about at all, Iron Fist hasn’t given me any season-long arc/objective that I could describe for you, much less one I’m curious to see resolved.’

Collider:

‘What could have been the boldest series is instead the quietest. Seriously … in the comics, the man gets his powers from punching a dragon in the heart, but that’s withheld from us? If I wanted to focus more on reality I wouldn’t spend so much time watching superhero TV.’

The Verge:

'Fans feared the worst when the series was announced, and all their fears came true.’

Big yikes.

[dr-archeville]

Yikes indeed

Honestly that except from Uproxx wasn’t the one that made me go OUCH! That show just got obliterated! It was this one:

Donnie Yen and Fans Campaigning For Him to be Cast as Namor for Marvel Studios

With recent rumors increasing about Namor the Submariner getting his own feature film in the [...]

So apparently Marvel has finally reclaimed the movie rights for Namor, the most empowered superhero and apparently Donnie Yen and his fan base have a great suggestion for who should play the lead!

I have to say, I can’t think of a man who could bring more empowerment (x):

Now that would be a comic book movie worth seeing!

HAD NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS CASTING UNTIL THIS POST, WILL NOW REFUSE ANY OTHER OPTION
