You could have quoted another great movie - of a somewhat different genre: Ghostbusters[^]
Louis: [possessed by Vinz Clortho] I am The Keymaster!
Dana Barrett: [possessed by Zuul] I am The Gatekeeper!
But then you would have had to implement a gatekeeper method as well, of course! 
Anything that is unrelated to elephants is irrelephant

Truthfully, I thought some of them were 0% chicken meat. And no, not the vegan ones.
In a world where you can't pronounce most of the ingredients on packages it really isn't surprising anymore to find out what is in processed "food." Or what isn't in it.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Not surprising at all, what I am surprised at is that they are still allowed to refer to it as chicken.

I guess technically "beaks and cartilage" counts as chicken.

I guess you're right but do they classify it as white meat or dark? I thought nuggets were supposed to be white meat?
I ate at Wendy's the other day and it was nearly $9 for a single meal with chili and it didn't have near the flavor as what I remember. It's been a long time since I've eaten at a fast food burger joint, I do do Taco Hell occasionally and it'll be a long time before I ever eat in one again.

They may be nuggets, but they certainly ain't no chicken.

Yeah, as I saw one person comment, "If it were a real part of the chicken, they'd call it that. Nothing edible has nuggets that I know of."

One of my favorite jokes when waiting for the microwave at lunchtime, and folks are browsing the vending machines:
"Let me know if you find anything made of organic compounds."

Chicken nuggets?
I can just about get my head around wheaty-pop oat flakes. Come back in a few hours.

I always thought that KFC should be renamed KFEN (Kentucky Fried E-Numbers).
Thanks for reminding me never to eat there or similar places serving "chicken" meals.

Anyone know what the market rate for WPF contractors in New York is?
I too dabbled in pacifism once.

Can't we stop this nonsense. Waste Professional Faculty is still a trash man. Let's stop doctoring up titles.
OK, to answer you, to get that specific you may need to purchase a salary report from a company. I personally have not seen WPF called out individually in recent salary reports.

Because you said NY (I'm assuming - perhaps incorrectly - that you mean NYC) I'll answer, "it depends". WPF devs in NYC with a quant background (or some experience in quant) command $150K+. More quant experience pays more than more WPF experience.
(If this is not for a quant position, please disregard my reply.)

What is this quant you are talking about?
$150K? Do you need any bloody foreigners hey!?!?!

A quant is a financial analyst who evaluates market trading conditions mathematically.
Well, that's what my mate Google tells me.

So a bullshit artist willing to make inane/insane predictions about stuff they don't understand. I think that sounds like me 3 hours into a big drinking sessions.
