I am disturbed and strangely entertained. Just type in what you want him to do and... he does it.

Yeah see that's the disturbing part! It's really some guy in his living room dressed as a chicken and taking requests. People have a lot of time on their hands!!

I asked him to die, to get out of the room, to watch tv and he did everything. When I asked him to take off his pants he came closer and made the funny "no-no" sign with his finger. I think it's a program, not a real time thing but it's so much fun!

Hahaha, that's great.

I told him he rocked and he ran up to the cam and did the "metal fingers" It was hallarious. I think it's just a program but it's a funny one. It totally made my day!

I respectfully asked the chicken to take off that foolish costume and get into some proper clothes. He did not. VERY strange.

TINK
I told him to show me he loved me and I think that he kissed his pillow.
I told him to pray to God and he got down on his knees and did the sign of the cross then I told him to pray to Satan and he got down and was doing that things where you move you arms and body up and down to the floor, then I told him to pray to himself and he did the same thing and I asked him if was Satan since he prayed the same way and he did the finger wag thing. And then I asked him why he prayed the same and he shrugged.
I told him to trash his apartment and he hit is couch with his pillow a couple of times.

That's funny! I got that in an email. I asked him jump and he did, asked him to scratch his butt and he did, I told him to have a seat, so he went and sat on the couch and crossed his legs, then I told him to blow me a kiss, which he did, and then he came up to the camera and looked right into it, and then he wouldn't do anything else i asked him to do. There must be a 3 or 4 requests per person limit.

I think he's a real live guy with a web cam. It says Chicken for hire, sponsered by Arby's (was that who it was?) so I think he's actually getting paid to do this.

Crazy, man...a bit disturbing, although I'm not sure why.

I ask him to pick up the bible & he sofa threw cushions at me. Then I ask him to hit the t.v. and he scratched his butt. If he`s a real guy, he needs a new job...

LOL That was weird but very funny.
The only thing he didn't know how to do was the macarena, lol, but he did the chicken dance just fine. Burger King, you say? Does anyone know for sure if it's a program or some guy actually responding to our prompts live?

I'm inclined to think it's a live guy. I told him to pick up that blanket and he did, lay on the floor, he did, roll over, he did..When he doesn't respond, you may have hit your quota, or he's doing somebody elses request.

This is the freakiest thing!!!! I asked him if he got paid for this and he nodded. The only thing he wouldn't do is stand on one leg. I even said "please" and "why can't you stand on one leg". He would just look down at both legs. whatever.

I think it's a real time person, not a program. he did nod that he's getting paid for it. Boy, what kind of freak would want a job like that.

Oh well, to each his own.

I don't think that there is a quota because I was on there for about 15 minutes and he did everything that I wanted him to do. I think that you have to wait for him to finish doing what you told him to do and then let him go back to his original place and freeze.

wow, I was expecting a cartoon chicken from the way you all described this, but I just had to check it out...very weird. The chicken/guy sat down like i asked him to, and even jumped up and down when I asked him to, lol.

Oh man, that thing has been around for awhile, it HAS to be pre-recorded footage, which is why it takes a bit before you can put in another command (you HAVE to wait until he is done what he is doing). I guess it is really easy to set up a program that kind find 'trigger' words and the program will do the pre-recorded message/footage based on those.
