Carls Jr. Ads - Is It Just Me? |
|
I loath them. I have hated the gobbling, drooling, noisy, nasty, messy, disgusting eating sound filled commercials for years and so I have refused to step foot or drive through a Carls Jr. - Haven't been to one since they adopted this method of luring the public into their evil web.
Their latest attempt at funny, with the Chile Cheese Burger, is just too horrible for words....

19. Christ! Who do I sue? |

I mean, decades of therapy almost made me believe I had only dreamed that, in a nightmare. To have it verified as real...
Where's the huddled-in-a-corner-shivering-and-sucking-thumb smilie when you need it?

10. No, it's not just you |

I HATE them. They're just simply disgusting. I would NEVER go to a Carl's Jr. after seeing those ads.

24. People who think Larry the Cable Guy is funny |
|
That's about the only demographic I can think of that thinks commercials where the predominant sounds is that of someone chewing are good.

12. They shouldn't let people with food fetishes make their ads. |
|
It really is quite disgusting. I like Carls because their burgers are good but the ads are horrible.

All those commercials say to me is "eat here and you too, can be a disgusting, sloppy, selfish, slob with no manners or self respect."

17. Sorry, every time I hear Carls Jr. now, I think: |
|
"Would you like some EXTRA BIG-ASS FRIES?" and "NOW WITH MORE MOLECULES!" (from Idiocracy, for those that missed it)

18. I just saw that one for the first time tonight - pretty disgusting |
|
At first I thought the girl was scamming him with a fake splot so she could sneak all the fries, but it was way worse than that...

20. The only one I've ever seen had Paris Hilton in it. |
|
Ironically, it's about the only thing I've ever watched with Paris Hilton in it.

to visiting Carls Jr relatively often. Their value burger is by far the best Fast food burger around.

22. I would endure the commercials for a Western BBQ Cheeseburger... |
|
...and a side of zukes with ranch dressing. Our east coast Hardee's is but a pale shadow of the mighty Carl's Jr.
Carl's Jr....Fuck you, I'm eating!

begin to hand over money to a place that advertises in this manner. I am probably over sensitive when it comes to slovenly, sloppy, disgusting eating sounds and people dripping the secret sauce and grease all over themselves and their cars ---- I am horrified by the boneheaded, idiot guy with Chili all over his face whose girlfriend points out that he has something on his face... Haaaa-ha! so hilarious... that is, if your idea of humor is farting and potty jokes.
Ugh. I Tivo through the ads when I can or freeze them and then rush through to not see or hear anything.
I wish I could sue them for giving me a complex.
