clarification...
does no one remember the anti-drug ad where the druggy kid says to clean-as-a-whistle-tom "hey you want some drugs" or something similar (and equally unrealistic) to which mr. clean says "no" (attaboy, just say no! would you care to take a bite out of crime while you're at it?)
so then part-time middle school student/part-time dealer boy says " what are you, chicken?"(since that's an extrememly likely retort) to which johnny-be-good says "i'm not a chicken, you're a turkey!"
and keeps his knee caps. in fact i think proposition joe just walks away leaving ace to smile with satisfaction.
you can't tell me i'm the only person who remembers this ad. it's so classic.

aha! i knew i wasn't insane! i have yet to find a moving clip of this psa, but it talks about it in depth here [link] and has still photos of the video.
in case you aren't interested in reading the article, i'll summarize. it basically says i was right and you were wrong [insert shit eating grin here]
apparently my chicken/turkey psa was part of a larger, teenage mutant nija turtles anti-drug campaign back in 1991. the article goes as far as saying (and i quote) "'I'm not a chicken, you're a turkey.' The line that defined a generation. The comeback that's saved millions from peril."
thankyouverymuch.
