Burger King - commercials

I have found Burger King's series of commercials cringe-making for a long time. They have a Burger King, wearing a plastic mask, forever smiling, which is stupid to begin with.

Then they've got him breaking into insane asylums to give away free food, and running away from the police - devolution media right there.

And then we've got the latest version, because apparently Burger King is the official restaurant for the new Iron Man movie. So the King now shows up in a specially designed Iron Man outfit, which of course doesn't work properly. Which is supposed to be funny but merely promotes incompetetence.



The above ad angered "mental health" advocates, because they used the word "crazy." But I found the entire ad offensive regardless.
