I just saw the new Quiznos subs commercials on the TV. What are those nuked rat looking thing things?! I've seen pics of them posted on FR before. Someone please explain to me what they are and why Quiznos is sporting them now. O_O;;;

If you haven't seen the commercials, you can go to the the link above and see them. OMG.

Those are things they slice up for the sandwiches I think.

[4mycountry]

Any ideas? You guys would seem to be the the ones who'd know.

Do a Google search on "I Like The Moon". The critters are from a hilarious web site which performs a song by that name.

[4mycountry]

Ew.

Absolutely the best commercials ever. I like the guitar-playing one with the tri-cornered hat.

[KellyAdmirer]

I noticed them too. In fact, the person I was with made a big deal about them - she thought they looked like rats and said, "Why would anyone advertise food using talking rats?" And she doesn't talk about commercials very much, she was honestly shocked.

[Arkinsaw]

They sure make you want to rush out and eat something from there eh?

Here's the link.

I saw these last night. Hilarious!

Wouldn't make me go out and look for a Quiznos though.

I saw those things last night. I couldn't figure out what they were either. They certainly don't inspire me to go to Quiznos.

It's a ripoff of a popular series of Viking Kittens Flash animation on the Web.

[Chi-townChief]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who found that .... disturbing (for a food ad anyway.)

[CJ Wolf]

like Chuckie Cheese?

[Nea Wood]

Good Lord. Why would they use such an ugly, unappetizing...thing to advertise food?!

[retrokitten]

I don't know!! They are horrifying! They look like mutated mice.

[BlessedBeGod]

I absolutely hate all of their commercials, including that one. I wouldn't eat there if it was the last place on earth.

[BallyBill]

I could've made out better not seeing that!! Or, should I say hearing that. I think I blew my speakers out.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Those things freak me out. I call em Thumbellion Bevis and Butthead rats. You would have to be farmiliar with that whole thumb animation thing though to get it.
