i love fully inelastic chicken

[-] HiddenLychee@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Yeah that's the part that erks me the most. Ain't no way that chicken is staying together.

And no heat losses from slapping the chicken either

And they're not accounting for any amount of cooling between slaps. What's the ambient temp? What's the rate of slap?
