love it or hate it, part 2


I'm just going to go ahead and say, hate it. Hate it, hate it, hate it. Lately all Hardee's commercials seem to zoom right in on the "oral." Close-ups of people eating ginormous, unsightly burgers and taco salads and other varieties of Death on a Bun. The amplified munching sounds that accompany these feasts, which typically take place in big rigs and feature slovenly individuals. This "Driving" commercial sends me over the edge, however. He's got a steak hanging from his mouth the whole commercial, and shakes it like a dog toy. Fucking gross.

I long for the days when they interviewed the restaurant manager who employed Donald Trump-esque mannerisms: Angus Beef. It's the best you can buy. At least that one was funny, even if they didn't mean it to be.

huh, i was focusing more on the fact that he was a jackass for not holding it with his left hand and driving with his right- and as we all know- you can cut your meat into pieces at stop lights. the things that i used to eat in my car on the way to school- cereal being one of them-- and quite possibly a steak or two. how can you not love leftovers... and steak is just so tasty.

I was focusing on that fact too - the whole one-handed driving thing. Wrap it in little foil to keep your fingers clean, and you're good to go. Duh! Wait. That's a Taco Bell slogan now. I'm plagerizing, er, something...
