Satire from the scene in the film Forest Gump in which Forest is drafted into the army and he meets Bubba on the bus. Bubba goes on to reveal his history in the shrimp business and say every conceivable way to prepare shrimp.
Forest: (looks for an open seat on the bus).
Bubba: You can sit down if u want to. Hey, you ever been on a real chicken farm?
Forest: No, but I been on a real big farm.
Bubba: I’m talkin bout a chicken farm. I been workin on a chicken farm all my life. Started out on my uncle’s farm, that’s my Moma’s brother, when I was about maybe 9. I was just about to buy a farm of my own then I got drafted. My name is Benjamin Buford Blue but people call me Bubba.
Forest: My name is Forest Gump. People call me Forest Gump.
Bubba: I know evrythin there is to know bout the chicken business. Matter-of-fact, I’m goin into the chicken cookin business wit my mama when I get back. I’m a cook wit her at this school in Ohio with lots a little kids.
Forest: Okaayyy.
Bubba: Like I was sayin, chicken is the bird of the earth. You can Barbeque it, bake it, grill it, there’s key west chicken, bourbon chicken, sweet and sour chicken, teriyaki chicken, there’s chicken vegetable soup, southwest chicken soup, chicken noodle soup, chicken tortilla soup, there’s chicken nuggets, grilled chicken breast, fresh chicken strips, chicken drumsticks, chicken pot pie, chicken stir fry, oriental chicken salad, chicken ceaser salad, chicken parmesan, chicken tornados, chicken crispitos,…, That’s about it I guess.
Isn't this too much of a Hawken "In" joke?
