This commercial is AWESOME.


Also, Sonic's shakes aren't bad. The rest of the food sucks though.

It's...mediocre, I think. Or maybe I just have a good Sonic in my neighborhood. Good being relative of course.

I do miss those kickin' coneys they had awhile back. Was just a regular coney with bbq sauce and fried onions, but it was actually pretty good.

Cain's sauce is great, but the chicken is dry and stringy. Slim Chickens (which is currently only in Oklahoma and Arkansas, unfortunately) is the superior chicken place.

Zips was the best thing about Spokane, and so was Dicks burgers. Nothin like a greasy bag of dicks!

Also In N Out is the best for burgers, Chick Fil A for well chicken sandwiches.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I love Chik Fil A, and ironically I love them more for their terrible politcs. Because they are not hiding that poo poo. "Yeah, Sundays? We're closed Sundays. Every other fast food place doing some spring fish sandiwch specials? This is a Lent Menu, fuckers. There's a mural just inside, you can see all the charities we use your money to support." And y'know what... fair deal. They make it clear what they stand for, and everyone gets to decide how much their morals are worth up against a really, really tasty chicken sandwich.

Mine always seem to fall short.

I'm incredibly lucky that the only Chik Fil A near me is in a food court, flanked by a Panda Express and one of those delicious Japanese grill restaurants, because otherwise I might not be able to resist. But lo, my morals stand strong, and they're powered by Orange Chicken.

If that's on so much during Survivor, wouldn't it be a 7-Up ad, then? I know there were a couple moments in one episode where pretty much the whole point of the reward challenge was to shill for that.

EDIT: I assume it's this ad you're talking about? Yeah, that's 7-Up, not Sprite.

Yeah, I saw the new version tonight and they completely toned it down. They're still crying but its not as shrill and you can actually understand them. Still a horrible commercial though.

I noticed it was different because they took out the subtitles. I think if your commercial needs subtitles in the first place you need to tone it down.

But that's the joke you see! The audience can't understand a word they're saying but the mother and daughter understand each other perfectly so we need subtitles because it's the equivalent of another language! Hahahaha:suicide:

Maybe I'm being nitpicky, but the hair on woman who's driving the buggy in this ad annoys the hell out of me because I think it's a wig. I know there's a chance there isn't and the way it's styled makes it look fake, but the point where her hair ends and her forehead begins doesn't look natural to me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOGbeEpRpSQ

Also, the ad itself is starting to get on my nerves since I've seen it quite a few times on TV already (especially during American Idol) and it's getting to the point of being annoying overall.

The hair on the temples looks normal. She just has a tight comb over-ish thing going on her bangs.
