Let’s change the mood just a bit, put a little laugh into your day.  The first comes (well, came) from Microsoft search.  Make sure you click the pix for the larger verion:

And Burger King could NOT be outdone by the Quizno’s commercials where the oven is telling Scott, the cook, to “put it in me“.  What do you think of this one WC?

Finally, an old one that made me smile…

Babe, these are great. *Love* this BK ad!! Nice & pervy (good use of images, words, & innuendo!) The Quiznos commercials image & the verbiage don’t quite have the same appeal as this does. I think its the lack of sex appeal of putting a “hotdog down a hallway” essentially with the little sandwich in the big oven. The image of the jaw dropping giant sub with the text of “blowing” your mind does it for the Perv in me! I have to do that Microsoft search – too funny! & is it me or is it the zealots that really make you think twice due to the irony that is their life?!?

Can’t sleep… anyway…

@WC – Yes, Quiznos is better. I just saw this and thought that they took a page from their playbook.

@Anju – MSFT fixed the error and removed it from the site.

Are you kidding?!? This BK ad is SO much better than Quiznos! Yes, they might have stolen ideas but another thing I realized is that Quiznos has more of a ‘tame the flame’ appeal/lean. It is a guy’s voice saying ‘put it in me’… And all you see is a large, cavernous oven (can we say ‘Goatse’?!?)

Anju, we’ll have to agree to disagree on the BK ad!

@WC: ok, fair enough :)
