What does this commercial mean

No!. Her mother was a former Roman Catholic nun. I believe she is still Catholic. I remember her as the suicidal file clerk in the Mel Gibson movie, when Judy was still young. |

With all the spousal abuse and elevator-riding women colliding with knuckles and now the Ghomeshi scandal in Canada, I'm surprised the Broadcast Standards censors allowed the commercial to air. Yes, its an obviously exaggerated and humorous portrayal but its on a topic in which one third of all car buyers hold very strong views. |

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18766 | Col Sanders sold his company, so he lost control of his image pretty much. I think McDonalds did just fine while Ray Kroc was alive. Then Kroc croaked. Look at it now. Some of the soul goes out of the company when the founders are gone. Nobody thinks of it as their "baby" just a money maker. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

What does that have to do with these commercials being in bad taste. I would quit eating there, if I was eating there. I got a bucket of grease one time. 1965, I just started driving and there was one franchise in my area. I got a 15 piece bucket for $3.99 and ate 12 pieces in in the car. When I got home I puked in my driveway for 10min. Never had their greasy crap again. Not a fast food person. Never eaten at Wendy's, Hardees, Popeyes, Long John Silvers, Pizza Hut, none of them. McD and Burger King was it, and that was decades ago for me. I went to the Cordon Bleu cooking school for a semester in the 70's. Fast food is not real food. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

That's way below cost. A nickle apiece, amazing.  If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
