[QUOTE=WF Tomba] It’s the second. So you think they’re trying to appeal to “a certain demographic”? [/QUOTE] Yeah, I do. The article you linked to even said that the ads were supposed to appeal to young, working class, regular-guy type people. I think it’s insulting to the young, working class regular guys to think that they’ll be more apt to use a product that uses bad grammar in their ads. ---

[QUOTE=Purgatory Creek] I had to stop reading this thread because it was making me laugh way too hard for the Pit. [/QUOTE] Don’t worry, I’m not exactly foaming at the mouth about any of this. I almost put it in MPSIMS, but I was feeling a little Pitty last night. ---

[QUOTE=bufftabby] And **zsofia** , I will likewise be telling everyone I know about the pizza with high school children as the toppings. I know a lotta wannabe cannibals, and that’s probably the closest they’re ever gonna get without taking communion. [/QUOTE] They should license other Disney characters as well. Who wouldn’t want to eat Hannah Montana? ---

Do you guys have Liberty Tax in your area? With the guy/gal standing outside as the Statue of Liberty, and balloons, and flags? Haven’t you ever wondered what kind of person makes financial decisions based on a homeless guy dressed as Lady Liberty? ---

Haven’t you ever wondered what kind of person makes financial decisions based on a homeless guy dressed as Lady Liberty? [/QUOTE] You mean it’s a _chain_? I was sure only a small business would be capable of such a loony advertising campaign. Ours doesn’t have homeless people, though. They look like pimply high school seniors. ---

[QUOTE=C3] Yeah, it sucked, too. Back to Papa John’s. Good grief, I wish there was decent delivery around here. I’m pretty sure it’s “who knows.” Or was that a whoosh? [/QUOTE] That was a whoosh-- I gave it away by snickering. ---
