Trauma. Horror. Despair.

Which of the myriad demons of marketing had to possess someone to create a commercial featuring The Burger King, Spongebob Squarepants, and "Baby Got Back"? Was the world not full of pain enough before this monstrosity was released into the wilds???

asking questions, television

Trauma. Horror. Despair.
Those were my feelings exactly.
I watched the commercial and couldn't believe it. I turned to Greg and all I could say was "Who the hell would think....?"
Awful.

Considering that the commercial is supposed to be targeted to parents rather than children, I can actually think of ways to combine those three things in a way that could be amusing. Unfortunately, the ad they came up with is just plain nightmarish.

Yanno, there are times when I miss TV... this isn't one of them.

There are now many places online where you may watch the commercial in its entirety. I strongly urge you to avoid doing so.

My brain threw up when I watched it.

I'm a little scared to turn on the TV ever again.

Maybe it's actually a working by someone who feeds off those emotions?

That would explain a great deal.

ME thinks you need to add my new wanna-be "friend": pobpurpeg

Also, how do you report bots?
