Has anyone seen that whack job Burger King commercial with Hootie from Hootie and the Blow Fish? Talk about wierd, but man once you hear "The new tendercrisp bacon cheddar raaaanch" lyric it's all over. Prepare to have it in your head for at least 24 hours.

God, I've got terrible insomnia tonight...Been posting like crazy. LOL

I KNOW!

I had it stuck in my head for days! I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE IT!!!

I like the tender crisp bacon cheddar ranch.
The breasts they grow on trees.
There's a train full of ladies with a nice caboose...
All the lotto tickets payed there's a king who wants you to have it your way.!!

Aw, curse you Jedi Sage.

I still can't believe how much of a step backwards that commercial is for Darius Rucker and Brooke Burke. Yikes.

I've never seen that before. So what is the gist of it? That if someone goes to BK or McD's everyday they'll get fat?

Morgan Spurlock eats at McDonalds three times a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner), for 30 days. Meanwhile he goes on a journey showing how people got addicted to fast food, how much money fast food companies spend on advertising, how the children today dosent know who christ was but know who Ronald McDonald is, how the lobbists in washington dc dosen't want laws that might get in the way of the food companies, and so on... Everyone should see it, and it's not political so both liberals and conservatives might agree with his point.

My peeve on something like this is: Too much of anything is not a good thing. Eating greasy fast food 3 times a day for 30 days makes you fat? NOOOOO! Addicting? Debateable. I grew up in the 70's and 80's, so I practically lived off the stuff. However, a time came when stopped living off it because I made a choice. Seems like when someone's doing something that makes another person unhappy/angry, we blame first "Corporate America/The Military Industrial Complex", two "Politicians/Lobbyists", three "Addiction". Does anyone bear any responsibility for their own actions anymore? Sorry for pontificating, but this is a slippery slope issue. It begins with law suits against McD's when a woman puts a hot coffee between her legs when driving and spills it on herself...somehow it's the restaurant's fault. Where does it end? GRRR...

...and I was replying right after he wrote it, however, I was interrupted by coworkers and, by the time I got around to clicking "reply," three more messages had been posted so the significance lost its immediacy.

I thought about it when I posted.
