Next we eliminate the middleman

I have mixed feeling about whether or not the Hardee’s fast food chain calling its customer base wussies for eating somewhere else is a good decision. I’m afraid if I push the issue more they’ll call ME a wussy.

I do know this commercial strikes me as kind of nasty for some reason. Previously we examined the chain’s desire to show people eating under disgustingly detailed circumstances. Something about a woman bottle-feeding her boyfriend makes me feel uncomfortable. Like gym locker room and-that old man is completely naked long after his shower is over uncomfortable.

There really isn’t a lot of nuance here. They might as well have the guy say “Ga-ga-goo goo, I’m a baby and I eat at McDonald’s!” and then spit a raspberry at us. Watch the commercial..unless you’re too much of a baby.

Shut UP, buffalos DO have wings!

This commercial kind of eats at your brain every time you watch it. In it a shocked Jessica Simpson discovers a little bit about biology, and a lot about true love.

For being purposely corny I suppose this does a good job. Jessica flapping around in front of a green screen buffalo has that certain “I don’t know what”, as the French say when they are at a loss for words but want to still sound eloquent. To likewise be dumbstruck, watch the video.

Pictured: Moose looking good

The commercials running currently for the Enterprise car rental agency are some of the worst things on television. Here’s one of their dingy attempts to connect with the viewer featuring that guy from the Capital One commercial who tries to get David Spade to say “yes”. Oh Moose, when will you learn?

“Moose”, whose real name I do not know, does manage to add a small amount of dimension to the otherwise flat and obnoxious Enterprise car commercials. And he looks good while doing it.

As a side note, if you ever need a ride to somewhere that is close to a car rental shop, just call and have the company pick you up. Then excuse yourself to go to the bathroom and walk across the road to the TGIF for happy hour.
