Do ya'll have a most annoying commercial? One that grates on your nerves? One that just feels wrong in the pit of your stomach? Or maybe there are several.
Mr. Foxfyre can't stand the PCmatic.com commercial and can't get to the remote to hit the mute button fast enough when it comes on. (I don't like it either.)
But the one worst marketing gimmick that anybody has come up with and that just bugged the heck out of me is on its way out. Burger King is retiring the King!!!
All I have to say is that there is a media god after all.
So which commerical do you want to go away?

Burger King freshens fast-food image, kicks King to the curb![]()
In the first of many steps to reinvent itself over the next year, the struggling fast-feeder Friday will announce that it's dethroning the creepy King character and other wacky, teen-targeting stuff and refocusing on a customer it had all but forgotten: Mom.
In a new ad campaign set to air this weekend, Burger King will nationally roll out the California Whopper on Monday, made with what's arguably the gastronomic trend of 2011: guacamole. In a serious image twist, the entire commercial shows only the sights and sounds of the fresh ingredients being washed, sliced and diced. There are no words, just pulsating music.
All I have to say is that there is a media god after all.
