Crappy Chicken
My former flatmate and I, many years ago, loved spotting risible uses of "n" as a substitute for "and", especially in shop signs. So much so that we started taking photos of them ("Duckin'n'divin" was a favourite). If we'd had the internet in those days, we'd have put our photo gallery online and become an inexplicably popular cult site. On another theme altogether, but with us in spirit, is this site, which made me laugh like a drain*. Yep, it's photos of really crap fast-food chicken restaurants, mainly in the UK. You'd have to be very, very drunk at the time...
* They do, you know!
