[rant] Is it just me or are all those Carl's Jr. ads where the people are porking there way through a sloppy burger WITH ALL THE SOUNDS TO BOOT just the most annoying, repulsive, disgusting thing you've expenence in a long time? :disgust:

Sorry, but I just lunge for the remote mute button when they come on. I cannot stand it; gonna think seriously about boycotting Carl's

PLEASE!! MAKE IT STOP!! :Q [/rant]

ok, I feel better now. :cool: :)

Never seen them myself, but I agree on principle. I HATE those KFC ads where everyone is smacking and cruching and chewing with their mouths open!!!! Did these people never learn how to eat in polite company? Those disgusting sounds are definitely not the way to get me to buy your product.

Lemonhead, Palad - Perhaps this is a marketing strategy... to show how delicious and juicy the burger and chicken are, the companies have decided to show inviduals like yourself eating loudly and obnoxiously because they are indulged in such great food that nothing else, not even their etiquette!

I'm sure that Carls just want to show how overloaded their burgers are w/ the good stuff that you would have a hard time keep the burger from 'dripping'

And the KFC people are probably just so impressed by the crunchiness (is that even a word?) of the chicken that they can't help but drop their jaws ;)

><GG>

Well, the ads don't work for me. They've lost at least 1 customer and actually every person I've talked to hates those ads just as much as I.

I did't ask for your approval on my rant thread. Perhaps if you &quot;don't really care&quot; you should not crap in my thread, thank you very much. :p

The food is good though.

do you listen to the radio in LA? I listen to 97.1 the FM Talk station and not only do you get commericals on tvs, but those radio commercial are worse. But I do have to say that everytime I hear it, it makes me want to go and buy a burger, i'm not joking. I can see how advertising works so well. I give the ad guys credit, but the radio commericals are much worse than the tv ones, TRUUUUUUUUUUUST ME

danny~!

Hey dude! chill! WTF? Haven't you ever had something annoy you just a little no matter how trite(sp?) or silly? Dang, man! Take a pill, I'm &quot;all about&quot; just voicing an annoyance that many people feel. If it doesn't matter to you then say so, but keep your personal attacks to yourself.
