    I'm a bit surprised then that sailor-cured ham's not on the KFC menu. I take it it's made with ocean salt?

    Haven't seen the commercial, but have had the sirloin burger. Jules would approve. It IS a tasty burger. Maybe a littler overpriced, but tasty.

    I wish they would have used Jules instead of this guy

    Yeah, that guy is quite punchable. I doubt he even eats meat.

    I'm trying to figure out if Max Greenfield is being Schmidt or himself in these ads...maybe he should channel Deputy Leo?

    You wonder how many "no"s they got before they settled on him. It's written like it was designed for Neil Patrick Harris, perhaps Jim Parsons.

    I'm fascinated by industry stories on McD's struggle with millennials. It shows the shift in how people want to consume food and now how people say they want to consume food.

    To me it's the fast food version of WalMart (McD and others) vs Target (Chipotle, Qdoba).

    No one ever starts a story with "I was eating at McDonald's when..." Or "I was shopping at Walmart when..."

    I fucking hate the gecko.

    I fucking hate the Carfax fox.

    I fucking hate the Benjamin Moore puppets.

    I fucking hate that Scottish dude.

    How doesn't the Wendy's redhead weigh 8000 pounds by now?

    And those DQ guys need to die.

    Gotta love daytime, independent TV station commercials. There's one in rotation now for catheters. Stars a cranky old cowboy. No, really. A cowboy.

    "Hi. I'm a cowboy and I've suffered broken bones and bruised ribs, so I know pain. And I know I don't want any more. That's why I chose (catheter brand.)"

    That's the mental image I need in the afternoon. Wizened old cowpoke cock, as he's trying to shove a tube in. YEEEHAWWW!

    Just had the burger. It is damn good, especially for McDonald's. But you're right -- way overpriced.

    Because if you'll notice, she NEVER takes a fucking bite.

    I've ranted ont he Wendy's redhead before, but she's the girlfriend who's hot and decent enough in the sack, and seems cool at first because she's a cheap date. Then you go to her house and there's lots of Wendy's paraphernalia laying around.
    OK, you figure, it's a thing. She looks like the Wendy's logo, so she started collecting them. It's all good -- until you make the mistake of absent-mindedly stopping at McDonald's late one night on your way home from work. She gives you the cold shoulder for the rest of the night.
    The next night when you come home the lights are out, she's decapitated the cat, and is muttering something about you being a two-timing burger whore sonofabitch while sitting in the corner and rocking back and forth with a knife in her hand.
    No thank you. Keep your burger icon fetishes to yourself, please.
