Once again this is all wrong. The Congo is always starving because KFC is closed. Now, you're probably wondering, Why is Joe Kony adopting so many kids?
Well the answer to this is because he is a great man who cares for the poor and the starving KFC community. Now, I actually live in the Congo, and I'm going to go rape with my uncle. [Not women]
