I may be a bit old for this, but I have a new favorite cartoon. It's The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. It's on Cartoon Network at 4pm, so I managed to catch part of an episode today at work (it's a youth center, so we have the tv's tuned in to cartoons the majority of the time).

Is anyone else sick of the Quiznos commercials? I mean literally sick. Seeing that mutated hamster singing does not want me want to eat a Quizno's sub. It makes me want to throw up.

I also don't like how Kentucky Fried Chicken is advertising with this 'Kitchen Fresh Chicken' slogan. I like KFC (I actually like Quizno's too), but I think calling KFC 'Kitchen Fresh Chicken' is dumb. Everyone can see the chicken sitting under the heat lamps as they load up your box or bucket.

While I'm on the topic of stupid fast food advertisments, McDonald's has this commercial where some guys are playing basketball on rollerblades. They take a break to chomp down a Big Mac, then play some more. First off, what retarded sport did they invent? They should have just got some of the Slamball guys to be endorsers. It would have been cheaper than signing Yao Ming to a deal. (note: Mad Cal does not consider Slamball or roller-basketball a true sport) Secondly, who eats a burger for a snack in between basketball (or pseuedo-basketball) games? I mean other than Robert 'Tractor' Traylor. He must have gotten the 'I'm Lovin It' and 'I Love This Game' slogans mixed up.

I do like the Taco Bell 'Clubbin' commercials. I have been to Club Chalupa twice already this week.
