Carl's Jr ad.

It's so sexualized, it's almost a parody. The product is an afterthought. Some chick's rear end get shoved in your face, another random scantily scad chick walks into the barn for no reason, and then here's a burger I guess - scene.

So...all Carls Jr commercials ever?

Also, "another random" chick is Paris Hilton. Do you literally live under a rock? A rock on another planet?

I can remember the commercials being more about the product. Guy eats burger, burger drops down with wet sound, "new slightly reconfigured beef sandwich, only at Carl's Jr". That kind of thing.

This is just "hey tits and rear end, buy our poo poo, thanks". At least try to make the hallucinogenic cowgirl gyrations relevant.

Why? Not that it's a good ad, but it's working the way they intended. It's meant to evoke a relationship between their products and sex so feeble minded people's minds will go to them when they think of burgers and how hungry they are because sex is an excellent motivator and a shaper of thoughts and emotions.

They aren't even going the way of saying "eat our burgers and you can gently caress women like this." Just simply attaching sexual imagery to the existence of their product eventually associates feelings towards that sexual imagery to feelings about their product.

Have you literally never seen a Carl's Jr commercial before? They've been that bad for years

Also I like those Dodge Dart commercials. "Get your filthy voice off her!"

As someone who doesn't have either an iPhone or a Windows phone Microsoft's new Cortana commercial just makes them look bad. Mostly because Cortana is stilted while they have Siri talk in a more natural sentence.

Hardee's was bought by the company that owns Carl's Jr. in the late 90's. I'm pretty sure they just kept the old name in some regions for brand recognition purposes, but in every other way they're esentially all Carl's Jr. stores at this point.

Yeah, Hardees (which is what its called where I live too) is more of an east coast name, while Carls Jr. is primarily West Coast.

Oh yeah, that's right.

I watched an ice cream documentary this one time and as someone that's always lived in the East, it made me feel like I was going insane until they said Dreyer's is Edy's in the east.

I'm a little lost as to who thought the series of "Framily" commercials was a good idea.

Just every single member of that family is punchable.

The goth looking guy? Check.

The hipster-nerd? Check

The hamster? Check

The French speaking ballet girl? Check

The texas accent kid? Check

Just seriously not a likable person in that bunch.
