Am I the only one who thinks it's REALLY vulgar for Burger King

[Redstone]

not only to HAVE a sandwich they call "Spicy Huckin' Chicken," but THEN to advertise it to kids on the Cartoon Network?

Tacky, tacky, tacky. Low-class all the way.

1. I really couldn't care less.

There are worse commercials.

[Redstone]

8. There being worse ones doesn't forgive this one.

10. I liked the Burgerking- king.

I thought it was funny, but others went "Ahhhh!", it just depends on how you look at it.

2. I don't get the whole king mask thing and appearing in people's beds

and other strange places. Quite odd. Doens't make me want to go to BK.

[Redstone]

6. Those are genuinely creepy. If I ate at BK, I'd have stopped doing so

after seeing them. But I don't eat there. Yuck.

3. At three o'clock in the morning...

I'm sure it was "Big Fuckin' Chicken"... haha, I hate that commercial!

[vixengrl]

4. The first time I saw that commercial, I was like--Huh?

What did they..? Did they just?

It's just too close to "The Word That Children Must Not Say. But Know Anyway." I imagine many prepubuscent giggles.

[Redstone]

7. That's what they're shooting for, much to parents' irritation.

Call me old-fashioned, but I don't use that kind of language around kids, nor in business conversations.

Here? That's different; kinda like being at the bar.

20. I have to confess to a double-take myself...

5. I had to look it up.

1. Huck

In Mountain Biking terms to jump off/drop from a hight to flat land

a large 'drop off'

He Stacked hucking from a ledge

9. That's how they kill the chicken at BK

It makes them spicer. :bounce:

11. This *IS* Burger King, after all...

I highly doubt their core customer base is what one would call "classy".

You gotta remember that this is the same restaraunt that sells a deep-friend chicken sandwich with bacon , ranch dressing, and three different kinds of cheese.

[Redstone]

12. And that 1,400-calorie breakfast sandwich.

13. Well, as a vegetarian, I can definitely say

TACKY, TACKY, TACKY.:grr:

14. I'm just tired of advertising.

My agency has Wal-Mart and McDonald's, among others. Our creatives high-five over the awards they win. That's what drives them.
The product is a necessary evil.
But, we'll be gone when the oil runs out.

[Deja Q]

16. It won't run out.

Just delete the demand. Problem resolved.

[evlbstrd]

18. Same result.

I look forward to the end of advertising. I'll have to find something useful to do.

[Deja Q]

15. The hell does "huckin'" mean?

Oh. Oh dear. I just said it allowed 5 times. Yeah, that's tasteless. Especially since there's no such word as "hucking". I looked for it in my Funk and Wagnalls. :rofl:

[Redstone]

17. See the post upthread. It's a real word.

[caty]

19. I swear I watched that commercial

a half dozen times, in disbelief, before I finally heard the "h" in hucken'.:rofl:

[jobycom]

21. I'm not sure what's vulgar about it...

I haven't seen it, but I don't get why that's vulgar. I mean, beyond the fact that I'm a vegetarian and don't think much of eating animals. But that doesn't seem to be what's upsetting everyone.

[Celeborn Skywalker]

22. I frankly don't give a shit either way. (nt)
