Sonic Commercials...

Is anyone other than me ready to seriously hurt those dipsticks on the Sconic commercials? I have actually quit eating there because of them, let me know if I'm alone on this one!!

I do not think you are alone, however it seems that the stranger commercials get the more polarized the country is about them. You either hate them or love them, no middle of the road.

I am very tired of those irritating Sonic Bozo's. One thing about commercials, the object is to get you to remember the name, either by humoring you, something unique, or irritating you beyond human endurance.

No Sonic for me until they are gone, along with those Quizno's commercials!

We don't have Sonics around here, but they can't be worse than the rapping McDonnalds commercials.

Looks like the AD agency did a good job. Hate it or like it it has people talking about them and that is the goal of advertising.

I love it. Man everytime I see the carb counter display in the car reading like 28 thousand, I'm gigglin. Ofcourse my wife thinks I'm as misguided. Yea, the one where he's cutting out the Vitaman E and cant get his straw in his mouth is cool too. Yep, dry humor.
Oh, and it sure beats the dry Whattaburger commercials if you get those too. Not that I dont think both places rock.
