    Hello! I wrote this as a recognition of the ingenuity and creativity of OzBargainers. Obviously, not the most hard hitting news piece but I feel like OzBargain has been underappreciated as one of the biggest forces in Australian internet culture. Happy to answer any questions - CW

      Yeah I got a question, how did you feel after getting your absolutely deplorable journalistic integrity put under the microscope by FriendlyJordies?

      Really!
      Way to shut down a loophole.
      Seems like you (profanity) over the OzB community so you could please your boss with some column inches.

      Wow you contacted KFC, really? Please hand in your OzB membership.

    Can you please take down this article?
    WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
    Why would you expose all of this?
    You're screwing us over for two seconds of fame.

    I love it. I also love that kfc is so fkn far from me I end up never getting it. Still don't know if that's a good or bad thing.. I could be saving so much more on food imho.
