sumi, that guy is luckier than he deserves.
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
It's kind of a great ad, with Hootie singing Western and Brooke Burns (Burke? The brunette) on a swing, all cleavage-y. And then there's the fast food.
I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Here's a little essay on the Scary Burger King.
Somehow, an advertising agency has managed to take the concept of a king who gives you free sandwiches and turn that into something you’d run away from when confronted by it in an abandoned hospital.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The BK ad gets Meijaed here.

OH! I have seen these. They air on the Food Network sometimes. They confuse me. (And I don't think it's a gender thing, because my attention was first brought to them when my male co-worker asked me to explain it to him. Apparently being a movie buff means I understand EVERYTHING in the media.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
There is a lot of funny commentary about that ad. Here's more: [link]

Shit's all sorts of different now.
It's really Hootie.

I thought those were the Carl's ads, which are just nasty.
I have a penis, and therefore uncooked meat, buns still in the bag, and avocados confuse and frighten me.
(Okay, maybe I'm not the best guy to get defensive about those commercials, but even I am not as intimidated by cooking as the guys they show in those commercials.

Huh? I had to look up the lyrics just to make sure that that was indeed what was really said. All the while during this hypnotic trance is a visual bombardment of more cowboys, buxom burger wenches and soft-core porn starlets lusciously devouring chicken sandwiches.
Ok, babe? It's a rewrite of "Big Rock Candy Mountain." Learn your hobo songs.

Not having seen the ads in question, I just had a frightening moment of wondering what "buns in the bag" was a euphemism for. Nevermind the uncooked meat and avocados.
