Whopper Freakout
I actually visited www.whopperfreakout.com. I'm not proud of it.
Why did I do it? Two reasons, really. First, I wanted to see if it was real, or if it was just something funny to say on the commercial. Second, I'm so happy NOT to see the creepy Burger King on the commercials, I was in some sort of euphoric state that clouded my judgment.
I didn't stay long. Does that make it better? It's just a collection of commercials showing people getting upset about the Whopper not being available.
What I like about the commercials is how seriously people take it. To me, that's not a commentary on how good Whoppers are. It's a commentary on Americans.
