There are alot of sick ads.

"MAN... just keeps on getting bigger".

Remember that McDonald's campain?

A cute little girls in a McDonald's uniform is working at the counter.

A short semi midget guy walks up to her and gets served a modest sized meal.

The voiceover says "Man used to be small, and only need small portions, but man is getter bigger, so we at McDonalds are responding with the new supersize meal".

Successively bigger guys come up the counter, and get successively bigger meals served.

"And MAN, just keeps on gett BIGGER!'

Then one final huge tall guy walks up to the girl at the counter. She looks up at him with a look of horror and terror. But then looks down, and to the side, - with a certain look that...Ive only seen women use in the bedroom.

"MAN...keeps on getting bigger."??????

The subliminal message was NOT about 'man' (as in 'mankind') 'evolving' towards bigness, but...about something else.Use your imagination. Or better yet-don't!

Why does everything have to sound sexual in these stupid ads? It doesn't make me want their product. Just the opposite.

Hmm, freaky commercials, eh?

Okay, I've got one.

Best link for it is: http://www.starcade.tv/starcade/one-com ... own#vidtop

Theoretically that should go directly to the video itself and start it playing. Watch the volume on that one.


If that doesnt work, the absolutely craptastic link is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLUiYnw5e5o

Crappy for 2 reasons: 1. Very bad quality, the audio is terrible and muffled and the video wobbles. And 2. It's freaking Youtube. It's a glitchbomb.


This particular commercial.... every single word in it is permanently burned into my memory. Can recite the entire thing perfectly.

It always entertained me. I never did end up with a copy of that. Tried the arcade version in Mame recently though, turned out to be difficult as hell.


That commercial scared me a little.
