Sure, but they're KFC because everybody knows what the letters stand for. Circle, I can't figure out what they're trying to sell me.

So FWIW, the thing about the state of Kentucky isn't true. It's listed in 'The Repository of Lost Legends' on Snopes, which is their section of made up stuff.

I'm only mentioning this as I didn't realise for a very long time that the T.R.O.L.L. (now it should make sense) was all made up and I had a tendency to quote that section a lot.

I hope you haven't spent as many years believing that section as I did :)

That's a better description than the Art Director at one Digital Agency who explained that the reason for the name change to KFC was because "they weren't allowed to call it 'chicken' anymore."
