You know.. I don't like it when I see a commercial that triggers my basic 'Fight or Flight' reflex. Unless it's for an upcoming horror movie. That's okay, because it's *supposed* to scare you.

This new Burger King commercial for a... *deep breath* Tendercrip Chicken Bacon Cheddar Ranch Burger is scary. I can't help it, I grab something and hold it at the ready whenever this thing comes on tv. And then I stand there, ready to beat down whatever nightmare is preparing to crawl, Samara-like, out of the tv.

I'm not sure if it's the fact that they're attempting to equate their restaurant with an old west brothel.. why else all the over-makeuped, overly-posed, in some cases scantily-clad women cavorting around serving all the "lazing" cowboys? Or the return of that downright freakish looking plastic-headed King mascot guy, possibly..

Or maybe it's that guy from Hootie and the Blowfish all dolled up like Cowboy Curtis from PeeWee's Playhouse. That could be it, too.

Or just maybe it's the length of the name of the sandwich. I mean.. wow... that's a lot of name. I've never cared for Big Macs, but you have to admit there's something appealingly succinct about the name.
