saw this on comedy cental and goddamnit snickers, you got me all excited about a potential Robin Williams stnadup special. Only to find out it's an ad for your candy bar.

Good ad though.

btw, before anyone criticizes Robin Williams, I recommend watching this clip:

Is that the Ford ad? Because it actually says "Professional pilot in closed airspace. Seriously, cars can't fly" or something like that.

I would, but only because Wendy's closed in my area and the competition tastes loving terrible for whatever reason.

Why is the Wendy's girl so smug now? Some dude is all savin' some dollars with his no frills burger and she's all "Me too! Wendy's. :smug: and the dude is all :geno: and she's all "GOIN' IN! :smug:"

Goin' in more like go gently caress yourself you third rate burger tart.

The annoying thing about that Wendy's commercial is that they just redid their "value" menu to make things more expensive and removed items.

I don't know how old you are, but back when I was a wee kid (like, the 70s) Wendy's was loving awesome. The first ads I remember for them, even before Where's the Beef? was showing people taking a bite of the burger and then wiping their faces because they were cooked to order, not made at 10am and left under a heat lamp all day.

I weep for the Wendy's that was :cry:

Wendys is still like this where I live in Canada. Maybe not all stores, but the local one I go to makes burgers fresh, and they're not greasy at all. This could be an anomoly though, as I've been to other Wendys in nearby cities and had absolutely foul burgers.

Also, the worst burger I've had in recent memory was a Whopper. I can tolerate pretty much anything, but I tossed that thing in the trash after about three bites.

I don't want to derail the thread but Whoppers are so disgusting, I don't understand how normal rear end cheese burgers from BK are good but a Whopper with just cheese and ketchup somehow tastes like they dumped an ash tray into the ground beef.

Anyway, that one where the pig is on the plane and the stewardess is like "stop playing your game", and the pig is like "I'm not playing a game I'm paying a bill online" I just want the stewardess to be like "um, I don't give a gently caress turn off your loving phone you're on an airplane rear end in a top hat" I'll believe geico can make a good commercial when pigs fly hurr.

Eddie Money looks beat the gently caress up in that commercial. Like they found him on the street sleeping and brought him in.

I usually like most commercials the first time I see them, or think they are okay, but that one I immediately was like gently caress you geico. the pigs fly joke is just so stupid, it's like they were all poo poo faced or they let one of the writer's 5 year old nephews write it.
