So the Smart Chicken people apparently think I'm dumb and won't notice that there are now just three bone-in chicken thighs in each package, down from four and costing even more.

@briankrebs @Viss I think you've been on the Fediverse long enough to know enchickification means something entirely else, usually involving progesterone and cute outfits.

@LinuxAndYarn @Viss Sorry, I'm just wingin it here.

@LinuxAndYarn @Viss 3 wings?? What is this, a Boeing scrapyard?

@Viss @briankrebs I still remember the most visceral example of shrinkflation (and austerity programs, and fake bonuses) is from 1984, when Winston Smith has to adjust the historical numbers when the chocolate ration is cut from 20 grams to 5, and later write a story about the party doubling the chocoration to 10 grams.

@LinuxAndYarn @Viss Yes I too recall the Chocolate Wars. We had to sell chocolates to the nuns...oh wait, nevermind that was a book I read in 6th grade in 1984.

No door prizes at the Boeing grave yard. They all fell out over the ocean.

Bold of you to think I can call ANYBODY that - just looking at it makes my tongue hurt.

@briankrebs @Viss enchickification sounds like a disease where one's flesh is gradually transforming to chicken. At least it's not painful.
