2. but if he shows up in person |

I don't remember those - but from BK |

I still think that this internet campaign is a tad bit creepy ... http://www.subservientchicken.com/ Try it out - type commands and the chicken obeys...

I tested the chicken by asking him to 1. Dance an Irish Jig, and he did. 2. I asked the chicken to masturbate and he made a no-no sign with his hands

that it deserves to be trotted back out everynow and again.
The oddest thing - is that it was about corporate promotion - huh?

Those were definitely creepy! I thought they were kinda funny, though... in a creepy way, of course. :-)

9. When McDonalds had the Ham-murderer instead of the Hamburglar |
|
the felon who killed for McDonalds ham burgers started a nation wide killing spree.
The whole Wendy's "Find the Finger" prize game also was one ad campaign I could do without.
