This post from Gawker. com made me laugh:
"Yesterday Burger King's financial woes were blamed on their "edgy" ad agency. Now tonight our pal Copyranter sent us their newest advertisement, a reeking of desperation creation he called the "most overtly blow-jobby ad I've ever seen."
The ad agency behind this is Crispin Porter Bogusky and just look what the ad wizards over there have come up with now to stop BK's bleeding! I mean, what better way to sell oblong meat sandwiches than by suggesting fellatio?! How did they ever think of that? Just look at all that piping hot beef laden with creamy mayo aligned perfectly with the open mouth of a wide-eyed blonde, sitting just above the line "It'll Blow Your Mind Away." Who doesn't want to run on down to BK for one of those right now?"

I CAN ONLY DREAM....
A seven-incher sounds positively puny in comparison to a whopper!
Those ad agency guys have obviously never grasped relativity (um, they probably aren't the sort to admit to grasping, but let's not go there, eh?)
Yeah, they think it's all about sex, don't they?
The incomprable 'they' do say food and sex are inextricably linked... well I guess they are both about life...
It seems every blogger on the web is regurgitating the same (mis)information about this ad. This was not done by BK's North American agency, Crispin Porter + Bogusky. This ad is running in Singapore.

i don't care who produced it. It's still fellatio.
Thanks for that, Anonymous.
I look forward to reading that CP&B has terminated its relationship with BK in protest against such tasteless advertising.
