My dad just compared that Burger King commercial to Nirvana...
the place not the band. When I inquired further he said. "I just want to be in a place with cute girls on swings, singing cowboys, and where burgers grow off of trees" He's a silly man!

5. well I was busting his balls a bit over it...
but I also found it cute. He doesn't want to try the sandwich because it won't be as good as it looks on TV thus ruining everything

8. me, too
i stop everything just to watch it. As a woman I should be offended but somehow that silly little commercial is above offense. I wish I had an explanation for its appeal

7. Isn't that "Breasts that grow on trees"?
Even better!

I tried to ignore that commercial, but it's impossible. I still haven't been to BK in 10 years, so that won't change.

10. It reminds me of the movie "Happy Gilmore"
you know the scene where Happy goes to his "happy place". I don't know why but it does
