LOL. You've got to be kidding me?

She's why I can't ever get through to 911 when there is a legit emergency; like when the neighbors house is on fire, or there's been a real bad car wreck on the freeway.

Yes granted, it's funny and she is clearly a nutcase.

However, I think they need to press charges against her for hogging up the 911 system. This could have had real repercussions.

After I start laughing I will start to get pissed.

Have you guys seen those new Burger King commercials they keep showing during the NCAA tournament? For the bacon cheddar ranch? I think they were smoking crack when they came up with that one.

The ranch flows up to your knees!

I love Darius Rucker and he can do no wrong. The commercials are top drawer.

You know what's ironic? Any attempts by this woman to damage Burger King's reputation were in vain, because if anything, her stupidity just might bring in more business for the chain!

And ditto on the Darius commercial. That's Brooke Burke on the swing yelling "Come and get it!," right? Pure genius.

valkyrie 03-28-2005 06:27 PM

Shit man, I don't know who any of those people are. There was like floating bacon! WTF??

Peaches-n-Cream 03-28-2005 07:01 PM

I thought that guy looked like Hootie. I didn't think he really was Hootie!

And by Hootie I mean Hootie and the Blowfish, not Hootie from GC.

I just like writing Hootie.

Banana peels. ;)

Their entire current campaign is totally creeping me out. Starting with the "Wake Up with the King" commercial using that same Mardi-Gras-type king mascot. :::shudder:::

BK can't come up with a decent ad campaign to save their lives. I can't believe they're still in business. Anyone else remember the flop of a "Herb" campaign back in the 1980s?

Yep, that's Brook Burke with the janky King - it's not as good as the 'morning after' one, but it does get bonus points for passing the ". . . uh . . . are you fucking kidding me?" test the first time I saw it.

Good stuff, like the old Miller Lite ' by dick' campaign

From Ad Week:

Raunchy Ranch
February 14, 2005 -RANDI SCHMELZER

Bringing a red-blooded American guy's most hedonistic fantasies to life may seem an ambitious way to sell fast food, but that's what Crispin Porter + Bogusky is attempting on a Van Nuys, Calif., soundstage at a one-night shoot for Burger King's new TenderCrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch chicken sandwich.
The set for the "Fantasy Ranch" spot, which breaks nationally this week, is a whirlwind of ad execs, actors and stylists against rich land-and-sky colors more often associated with rural Montana than the Valley.
Agency executive producer David Rolfe describes the set as an "ideal dreamscape" for BK's target of 18-34-year-old men.....
