I now fully understand why the word 'mute' on the mute button on my elderly mom's TV remote has almost disappeared. She told me to mute the ads a long time ago. And by god, she was right 😏
Ok, good, im not the only one who hates that commercial. I think they stretched the word melt on purpose, the way cheese is stretched when it's melted. That's what I read into it.
That sort of happened to Damar Hamlin when the NFL cut to commercial when he went into cardiac arrest after getting hit, and it cut straight to a whopper commercial 🥲
read this skeet in my discover feed and my brain instantly went WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER and that's how it's gonna go until i fall asleep tonight. there's a strong chance i'll never eat burger king again in my life, it's just cruelty for the sake of cruelty.

I actually had to look up who he was because his voice moves me in the most peculiar way. I had conjured up this lore about how he was the cleaner at the studio where they recorded the ad, and they pulled him in last minute. The reality isn’t that magical. 😂
My wife, now institutionalized over this, screamed as she was dragged into the asylum “but it’s at the very beginning of the commercial so you don’t even have time to mute it!!!!!”
I feel like it's part of the official soundtrack of the bad place and getting stuck in my head right now just got you one step closer to it 🤪
In case you were wondering, also on that soundtrack: The KarsForKids jingle, both of Scott Baio's albums, 99 Bottles of Beer & All I wanna Do by Sheryl Crow
Like the climber that broke his leg in the Andes, fell into a crevasse and was left for dead, managed to escape, drag himself down the mountain and over rocky debris miles back to camp. The whole time "Brown Girl in the Ring" was in his head and he was SO pissed he was going to die to that song.
Murder murder murder murder
kill your friends and have a burger
chop them up and dig a big hole
2 all beef patties on a Sesame role
At BK, have it your way
You rule!
my dad was a professional choir director and even though I can’t sing I still have perfect pitch. I could legitimately murder that god forsaken BK singer and advertising team. I would allow them to be publicly executed without a momen—
i’m kidding of course, 100% kidding. definitely totally kidding
I think the phrasing is deliberately intended to be as insidiously ingratiating as humanly possible (just like the jingle itself, and the off-key singing), to get in our heads and sell us shitty food.
It fills me with a genuine rage, that someone would set out to do this to us on purpose.
It’s gonna be the Jardiance jingle for me. If I hear even the first word of that song, it gets stuck in my head for days. It’s my version of Hell on earth.

WAS, being the active term there. It was atrocious and I'm going to go clean out my ears with a machete now, if you'll excuse me.
Then let’s televise that company’s marketing director getting their head shaved.
Sorry. I know I’m mean, but I can’t take much more.
Hopefully, I'll be gone before the ED commercials air.
