    It's hilarious that most people have no clue what happens when they flush the toilet...

    They already turn human waste into fertilizer.

    When I flush it goes to the local treatment plant, and then is dumped into the river. The same river that the next town downstream takes its drinking water from.

    But in 5th grade we went on a great field trip, learned about the process of taking it from the river and putting it into the supply system, and then ate at McDonalds. Didn't everyone?

    Well that explains everything...

    That water treatment plant removes all the solids and non water liquids. Those are then shipped off to be pasteurized to kill bacteria, dried, and then turned into fertilizer pellets to be used by farms to grow things like wheat to make bread.

    Doh!

    Large KFC order lands group $18G fine for violating coronavirus lockdown order in Australia
    Partygoers ordered 20 meals at a KFC at around 1:30 a.m.

    A group celebrating a birthday party in Melbourne, Australia, was slapped with a $18,050 fine for violating coronavirus lockdown rules after police followed a KFC delivery order to its destination.

    The partygoers had apparently ordered 20 meals at a KFC in the Melbourne suburb, Dandenong, at around 1:30 a.m. Friday, The Guardian reported.

    Police were reportedly tipped off about the large order. The officials then followed the delivery car to the townhouse that had placed the order and discovered the gathering – despite guests attempting to hide in the backyard and under beds, the outlet shared.

    The group was issued 16 fines for breaking lockdown orders.

    The Victorian police commissioner, Shane Patton, called the behavior “absolutely ridiculous” in a statement to The Guardian.

    “That’s $26,000[AUD] that birthday party is costing them. That’s a heck of a birthday party to recall and they’ll remember that one for a long time,” he said.

    Melbourne, the second largest city in Australia, has started its second lockdown in response to a spike in positive coronavirus cases. The newest lockdown will reportedly be in place for six weeks.

    Eh, I don't know.

    Somewhere in my body is a "Grease Low" light.

    When it comes on, only a KFC or a Krystal will extinguish it.

    I'll be good for 6 months or so, then it comes on again and I have to find one of the aforementioned cures that will last another 6 months.

    Drat! Reading about KFC and my light just came on...

    There is a Popeye's nearby but it's not a good one.

    I got food poisoning there once. Never again.

    There is a Bojangle's, but for whatever reason it just doesn't put out the light like KFC.

    I've eaten at Popeye's 3 times, at 2 different locations. All 3 times very bad things happened to my digestive system. Never again.
