2. YES, I got a little emotionally involved over this one.

3. Ladies have fingers.
Most of them, anyway.

4. They get'em from the same animal as buffalo wings
PETA was pretty pissed, killing all those buffalo just for the wings and discarding the rest of the animal. So now they use the fingers, too!

5. It's the nuggets that get me.
Where the hell on a chicken are its "nuggets?"

Actually, don't answer that.

22. Yeah, Let's just let that one go, if you don't mind. (But have you ever noticed,
when you get chicken nuggets, there's never an odd number of them?)

7. How about Fish Fingers then?
A great British staple to many, a way to ruin perfectly good cod if you ask me.

8. Stand down, comrades. "Finger" can refer to any finger-shaped and -sized object.

9. Scientifically
They do have fingers... they have the same number of digits as humans do. It may not look like it though!

Those certainly aren't chicken fingers as their own "fingers" are tiny. I'm sure it's referring to "finger food" for humans of course.

21. Now that you mention it, don't forget to give thanks to Arnold Ziffle and his cousins
for the gift of Mountain Oysters, although you won't find any pearls in there.
