Brand New Irrational Fear

Although, this could technically fit under the terrifying clown umbrella, and would then be not brand new just ongoing. I'm having a bit of anxiety just considering adding the picture here, but I'll force myself...

Well, you make some astute points, but man, was that the most surreal commercial I'd seen in years! I love that BK freakazoid...thingy. It didn't wet my appetite for the food (actually, thanks to Fast Food Nation, I'm turned off pretty much for life), but I would like to see more of that...thing.

Thanks for posting about it...made my day!

Gansta Burger King.

Mummy, I'm scared...

Now to do what my cat does whenever he's frightened (which is often) - find a fortress and don't come out.

Have a lovely day! :-)
