i am frustrated with this.

seriously. i cannot stand some of the commercials that are on tv. the one that i currently have the most disdain for is burger king's texas double whopper commercial. it's all about "being a man" and eating this disgustingly large burger because "men" are sick of "chick food."

it starts out with this man in a fancy restaurant and when his food comes it is a very small portion. he storms out of the place singing that he is man and he's tired of eating "chick food." he goes across the street to the local burger king to get his manly texas double whopper. he is then joined by a group of men, all with texas double whoppers in hand, and they proceed to walk down the street, men joining their group along the way, leaving "woman's stuff" to be with "real men" and eat "real man food." finally they arrive at a bridge where a mini van stops for them and a man hops out, they give him a burger, then between all the men the lift the van and throw it off the side of the bridge. it lands in a construction type truck and an iron man type guy pulls the truck towards a texas double whopper, which is being held in front of him by a scantily clad woman. as this happens the men all yell, "I AM MAN!" and shove their burgers skyward. the parting words of the commercial are "eat like a man, man."

that is one of the worst commercials that i have ever seen, on so many levels.

disgusted.
