Re: [scifinoir2] Crazy Burger King Ads offend Mental Health Group
Yes! A few years a go, I got something NSFW in the mail, a video of a couple making love in the boyfriend's apartment. At one point, the young lady slips below the sheets for... well, do I need to draw a map here? The camera then focuses on the man's face, filled with pleasure. Then, in the background, you begin to here whimpered muffling... the man eventually is curious enough to open his eyes and looka round, where he sees his girlfriend on the floor to his right, tied up, terror in her eyes. The man then looks down, seeing someone still under the covers... They rise, revealing the Burger King, with a smear of something white and gooey at one corner of that grinning mask... That's the day I began cringing every time a BK commercial came on. On Sat, Apr 3, 2010 at 4:38 PM, Keith Johnson keithbjohn...@comcast.netwrote: That's the least of the issues.

Aubrey, then you'll *love* that video. I checked my Yahu files for it, but I've lost it, thanks to their notion of fixing what isn't broken. Wait... let me use this magnificent thing known as the Internet... Well, this isn't the whole thing (pun unintentional, I assure you), but the punchline is still there.
