    I wrote Quiznos a while ago and let them know that those things repulsed me and I wouldn't be eating at their stores because of them...

    Too fucking creepy, and annoying. And I reaaaally hate being annoyed...

              I wrote an email to PETA last week listing that commercial as proof why it's OK to kill animals. They replied this morning in agreement.

                      I know, rats and food just don't go.

                      But hey it worked everyone is paying attention.

                        i think this commercial is awesome.
                        i find myself singing it which is exactly
                        what quiznos wants everyone to be doing.

                        quiznos subs are good too.

                                              Odd but funny advertising is taking off.

                                              In the UK we have weebl and bob butter adverts

                                                  that Quizno's commercial was even in the superbowl. They didn't have to make it so annoying

                                                    I wrote Quiznos a while ago and let them know that those things repulsed me and I wouldn't be eating at their stores because of them... Too fucking creepy, and annoying. And I reaaaally hate being annoyed...
                                                    I completely agree

                                                    It looks like they used dead rats, which can only mean that they have a rodent problem and found a cheap way to profit from them... I can't believe this commercial made it passed production.

                                                    Makes me nausaous, I think I'm gonna be sick!

                                                      anything that disturbs me is an automatic write off....

                                                      that commercial is one of them.

                                                        You have a problem w/ rodents?

                                                        Nope, just don't want to see deformed looking rodents with huge teeth when I am about to eat a loose meat sandwich.

                                                          Agreed. The first couple of times I saw that ad, I had NO IDEA wtf they were! But, it's truly one of the WORST ads for a product I've ever seen.

                                                          I'm starting to feel the same about the Vehix.com ad, but for a different reason...basically, while the concept is ok, having some old guy wearing a "computer monitor" suit looks totally dumb!!

                                                          Don't get me started on the MSN butterfly!
