    Burger King's Super Seven Incher ad: Subtlety is dead
    If it hasn't already happened, today can go down in the record books as the day subtlety died. Burger King's latest advertisement -- for its, ahem, BK Super Seven Incher -- leaves little to imagination or interpretation. As you can see here, the woman in said advertisement is about to go down on said Super Seven Incher with a suggestive tagline that uses the word "blow." Mmhmm, I think it's safe to assume that such humor will only be going over the head of those younger than, oh, about 13 years old. (Sorry, parents!)


    The "copy" at the bottom of the ad -- not sure that you can even seen it here -- takes the whole thing even further: "Fill your desire for something long, juicy and flame-grilled with the NEW BK SUPER SEVEN INCHER," it says. "Yearn for more after you taste the mind-blowing burger that comes with a single beef patty, topped with American cheese, crispy onions and the A1 Thick and Hearty Steak Sauce."


    "Something long, juicy"? "Yearn for more"? "Mind-blowing"? I think it's all rather glorious, in an I-love-trash kind of way. Who ever cared about cunning, cleverness, and nuance anyway? Blow your mind (and this Super Seven Incher) instead!


    What do you think, PopWatchers? Are you even batting an eye at BK's latest, sexually charged ad campaign?

    You arent going to get any complaints from degenerate gamblers about this bro.

    Between me and you bro, What is your problem? Republicans have made offshore gambling tougher for all of us. Personally, I feel there is no morality in gambling. There are no places where lying, cheating and stealing are appropiate except for at the poker table or when dealing with your bookie.

    You are posting on the wrong forum my friend.

          It's a real ad, but as of right now, it's only being displayed in Singapore.

            Someone on this forum probably thought of that ad. Wait... I think it was me.

              Why would I care about an ad on display in Singapore for god's sake?

              Have you been to Europe? Have you seen ads in Europe? They make this BK ad look like a mass card.

                Then don't care. What I am wondering is exactly who is this ad supposed to make want that sandwich? I mean, am I supposed to want a sandwich being portrayed as a 7 inch cock? I don't think so.

                  Maybe the ad is aimed at conservatives who want both a 7 inch sandwich and a tube steak to chew on.

                  Let's not forget, conservatives have given us Larry Craig, Mark Foley, Richard Curtis, Bob Allen, Ted Haggard, Glenn Murphy Jr. to name just a few. The market for such an ad seems to be growing among the GOP.
