Yeah, Yeah, I know it looks nothing like me, but it's as close as I could get.

Creepy Commercials, Part 2

posted Saturday, 9 May 2009

Kathleen has already guessed the second commercial that creeped me out, which either means that a) she's psychic b) I'm not the only one who's creeped out by White Castle's foray into pulled pork or c) both a & b. I've seen a lot of comments on teh internets about the bad timing of this commercial to coincide with Swine Flu, but that's not even what disturbs me about this commercial:



What I find disturbing (beside the simple fact that White Castle + pulled pork = wrong, wrong, wrong) is the bestiality/food fetish component.  Are furries the target audience here?  They aren't just selling pork, they're sexualizing it.  The splattering BBQ sauce needs no explanation, nor does the guy who licks it off his finger.  Eww...
