Prefer this over the Quizno’s commercials where the toaster makes suggestive comments to the employee about putting it (the phallic sandwich) in him.
If you think this is bad you should hear some of the shit that passes for commercials on satellite radio. They say, in no ambiguous terms, that diamonds make girls wet, and men and women have an agreement that men buy women stuff so that women will have sex with them.
Obligatory link. Diamonds: she’ll pretty much have to.
That’s a joke as far as I know and the funny thing is that the real commercials are WAY raunchier.
Is there any chance that this Burger King ad is a joke, too?
Have you guys noticed they’ve re-edited that Quiznos ad a couple of times now. I’m sure they must have gotten complaints.
Those new truth in advertising rules finally kicked in eh ?
“Hold the pickle” indeed.
Obligatory “special sauce” reference.
Oh, and:
Yeah, this trend of fast food joints using sexual metaphors in their ads is fucking disgusting.
Well, at least they are still one leg up (heh) on virtually every other business that uses just plain sex to sell stuff.
I gotta admit I like the recent ads. The Kingons had me busting a gut, as well as the Quiznos porn.
As far as the print ad in the OP, all I can say is, it dont look like its gonna fit.
I dunno, I just don’t find the building blocks for a bigger, better, slower fatass to be all that sexy. Sexualizing an artery clogging death machine is well just kind of gross to me. It’s got all the sexiness of the episode of Seinfeld where George hid his Pastrami sandwich under the pillow.
It’s definitely not one leg up on ANY other business that uses just plain sex to sell stuff. Selling clothes with sex makes sense, but I don’t want to think about a burger when I am coming just like I don’t want to think about jizz when I am eating a burger.
Serenity now Mswas, serenity now.
Does bacon get a special pass?
Yeah, I noticed that too.
No, I don’t jerkoff with my bacon.
The best part was that I saw an article the other day that said that BK has actually lost market share while running the creepy King ads.
And yeah, that Quiznos ad was altered. Seriously creepy.
Can someone enlighten me as to what the very original ad you guys are referring to said?
The ones I’m seeing have the oven saying “I’m waiting for it [name of guy].”
Good I am glad they lost market share.
Maybe they’re losing market share because of their noxious smoke-flavoring, comical overuse of mayonaise, fish-flavored french fries, “onion” rings, and sit-down restaurant prices. They seriously have a combo on the menu now for $11.05, and I don’t think that’s large-sized.
