What the execs at Quizno's should have said to their advertising agency.

The pups licking his face is the 2nd version. The first one actually had him sucking with the rest of the litter. In his business suit, no less.

I ate at Quiznos once. The sub was okayish, but cost twice what I really thought it should. Meh.

As for the commercial, I kinda like it. I was more surprised that the guy actually describes the competition’s sub as “crap”. :slight_smile:

What would someone say if some stranger asked them if they were raised by wolves soley because of their lunch selection?

“Blow me” comes to mind…

Yup, the message of “eat here, because all of our customers are obnoxious jerks” seems a bit off point …

However, when the “Wolf Tit Cafe” opens in my neighborhood, I’m THERE!

The first time I saw it, I just sat there with my mouth agape and a feeling of utter disgust. I work in the advertising department for diapers and we can’t even show a mother nursing her child lest we offend someone. I just can’t imagine what idiot thought that a wolf nursing a man (who was making slurping noises) was the least bit clever or funny. It just turned my stomach.

Yup. That ad agency and the people at Quizno’s who agreed to air it should have all been thrown out to the wolves.

That first guy was pretty obnoxious, in a smarmy I’m-so-much-better-than-you way. And what was up with the way he was holding his precious Quizno’s sub? He had two hands around the thing like it was a Louisville Slugger.

Oh I don’t know dantheman I put two hands around…Um Never MIND :smiley:

I thought the commercial was hilarious.

However, I don’t eat at Quizno’s. I don’t care for overly toasted DRY sandwiches that tend to cut the roof of my mouth.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Turkey Bacon Quacamole. Like manna. (Not like mothers milk)

Most places list nutrition info on their websites. Quiznos only lists a few of their sandwiches. That’s why I know it’s good. Nothin says wholesome goodness like stuffing a sammich worth prolly over a thousand calories into my pie hole. For that reason I hold myself back and only have it once or twice a month, but I look forward to it. I put it on wheat bread so it’s healthy.

They could show the mother wolf pooping out a fresh Turkey Bacon Guac and I’d still eat the damn things.

The truly mind-blowing thing about the “raised-by-wolves” scenario is that a SECOND ad agency thought it must be a good idea and used it in another commercial. (I think for Nissan.) It’s not blatantly gross like the Quizno’s commercial, but it does beat you about the head with unfunnyness.

The thing that strikes me is the sheer number of people on this board willing to pay hard earned money to have someone make them a sandwich. IT’S A SANDWICH! Make sandwiches at home, pay money for things people actually have to cook for you!

You know, I really don’t like Quinzno’s subs. Turkey Bacon w/ Guac, though? I think I’ll have to give them another whirl. Like, say, today.

Err…CanvasShoes, do you know something I don’t?

But that’s another reason he shouldn’t be holding the sandwich like that. He looks like he’s doing something he shouldn’t be doing in public.

In fact, I’d go so far as to say that from the looks of his sandwich and the way he’s holding it, he’s obviously compensating.

:smiley:

Quiznos rocks. Togos rocks too, but differently.

The commercial sux.

I stand corrected then.

THAT’s where they get it???

I ate at a Quizno’s once. ONCE.

I get my sandwich made and ask the guy to put Mayonaisse on it and the dude tells me “Packets. How many packets do you want?” So, I have to put condiments on my own sandwich, and pay 7 bucks for the pleasure. Last Quizno’s experience.

I will say that I loved what they did to the place. It was a donut shop that they turned into a retro 1960s art deco type of joint. Too bad their food sucked and expensive.

That was Boys For Pele.

As for the whining about mayo, anyone dumb enough to put something as uncouth, banal and disgusting as mayo on one of Quiznos’ slices of heaven, deserves whatever annoyances befall them.

You’re right! Enough with people having their own tastes! Join the establishment! Fight the noncomformist! Death to the rebels!

Death to mayonnaise! :wink:

I’d rather see this ad (on cable, later at night) any day than see network ads for Fear Factor showing people gagging as they push around cows’ brains with their mouths.
