Ann Althouse is saying the ad is effective but I wonder. Sure it gets your attention but I it is supposedly targeted at young men. Now perhaps I’m just getting old and closed minded but I don’t want to think about my sandwich in that way.
The ad is merely distasteful (/pun), but the comments are actually depressing. Man, there really are people out there who not only think that way, but kvech and bitch, and call you names because they think you don’t. These are the type of people who push for the passage of laws against whatever offends them.
I’m with JKB…sometimes a sandwich should just be a sandwich !!

Oh, my word, the comments…
It’s a dumb ad. For a crappy fast food joint.
And those people are psychoanalyzing it like it was the last unpublished work of Freud himself…

Wow. The ad was somewhat amusing, definitely (pathetically) suggestive, and absolutely a failure, but the comments… oh the comments…

Bragging about seven inches. How postmodern.
But remember, it’s gun owners who are “compensating.”
