Racy Burger Ad Leaves Teachers Furious

You’re missing the point by such a wide margin, I don’t even know where to begin.

My secretary signed up to be my secretary and answer phones and perform administrative duties.

This adult woman signed up to act in the commercial.

“At this very moment, there are female teachers in high school classrooms with 30+ students who are working hard to teach our children so that they can compete in today’s world. It is unbelievably demeaning to every one of them to promote a television advertisement showing a young teacher gyrating on top of her desk while boys in the class rap about her body in order to sell hamburgers!”

The NEA’s rallying cry: “Keep our teachers homely!”

[Constantine XIII]

Let me call the whaaaaambulance. XD

[P-Marlowe]

My secretary signed up to be my secretary and answer phones and perform "administrative duties."

"Adminstrative duties" covers a lot of territory. ;-)

Does your wife know?

[HIDEK6]

That's hilarious.

Sorry, but all this outrage reminds me of mooselimbs.

[Eric Blair 2084]

If your mind is already in the gutter, I can’t help you.

My secretary is an old lady who looks like Janet Reno. But she does a great job.

[Eric Blair 2084]

Mooselimbs?

Please splain Lucy.

[Eric Blair 2084]

BTW, even if Pam Anderson was my secretary, I am faithful to my wife.

I took a vow and my word means something.

I saw the same commercial for Carl’s Jr.

The same parent company owns both Hardees and Carl's Jr.

They've had a whole bunch of racy ads... Anybody else remember the amazing, gorgeous, perfect girl on the mechanical bull? Or the "Thickburger" commercial where the woman puts her whole fist in her mouth? There have been others as well...

My secretary is an old lady who looks like Janet Reno. But she does a great job.

And if you told her that you needed to do an ad for your company and that she needed to climb up on your desk and wiggle her buns or you'd have to replace her, do you think you would be sued?

Do you think that executives that require their female employees to dress provocatively and climb up on desks and wiggle their tushes should be immune from sexual harassment lawsuits if they work in the advertising department?

[MarkL]

They used to have awesome chicken too.

I used to LOVE Hardees fried chicken! But at the time, their burgers really sucked. When the company decided to "concentrate" on burgers, they dropped the chicken... I remember when it happened. I was heartbroken. I also really miss the Hardees Chicken Biscuit for breakfast. :-(

Why did all my teachers look like Michael Moore in drag?

Most of mine did too, except for "Miss Hix" - that would be Ingrid Hix, and yes, she looked like the name implies - a young, gorgeous Scandinavian beauty - who taught American Political Behavior (an honors civics class). Wow...

How about some school vouchers?

If parents want to send their son to a school where all of the teachers look like Ford Agency models, they should be allowed.

If they want to send the kids to private Catholic schools, it should be their choice.

If they want to send them to Jewish school, it’s their choice.

If they want to send them to Al Gore U to be indoctrinated into Socialism, it’s their choice.

The idea of Gubmint run schools is anathema to freedom and choice. There should be school choice.

Only people like me who are “wealthy” because in my chosen profession as a pimp and drug dealer I can afford to send my chilruns to private Catholic schools AND pay the exhorbitant property taxes here in the DPRNJ.

I thought John Edwards and the Socialists were advocates for the poor. Why shouldn’t their chilrun have the same opportunity to avoid the NEA?

[Eric Blair 2084]

If I told her to do that ad, she would throw a pot of hot coffee in my face.

Immediate justice. No need for the Gubmint or lawsuits.

[Bryan24]

They may be marketing to 18-35 year old men, but they are pissing off the entire womens and parents market.

If I were a Hardee’s/Carl Jrs stockholder, I would be demanding heads roll. This wil kill their sales.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

“Shut up and teach”.

[P-Marlowe]

If I told her to do that ad, she would throw a pot of hot coffee in my face.

Then you could countersue her for assault and battery.

What if she was 25 and a single mother and really really really really needed that job?

Should you be exempt from sexual harassment lawsuits simply because you are trying to get some advertising for your company and your employee is really hot and really needs the job and "sex sells"?

_{You don't see where I'm going with this, do you?}

[P-Marlowe]

They may be marketing to 18-35 year old men, but they are pissing off the entire womens and parents market.

My wife won't let me eat there anymore.

You are trying to obfuscate (see, you can learn new words from reading eltitist left wing newspapers just to see what the left is up to) the facts of this case: Main Entry: ob·fus·cate Pronunciation: 'äb-f&-"skAt; äb-'f&s-"kAt, &b- Function: verb Inflected Form(s): -cat·ed; -cat·ing Etymology: Late Latin obfuscatus, past participle of obfuscare, from Latin ob- in the way + fuscus dark brown -- more at OB-, DUSK transitive verb 1 a : DARKEN b : to make obscure 2 : CONFUSE intransitive verb : to be evasive, unclear, or confusing - ob·fus·ca·tion /"äb-(")f&s-'kA-sh&n/ noun - ob·fus·ca·to·ry /äb-'f&s-k&-"tor-E, &b-/ adjective It's not very complicated. Did the grown woman/actress sign up to act in the commercial or not. ?(<-----Notice the period and question mark)

[VeniVidiVici]

Great commercial.

I had a Hardee’s burger for the first time in years just about a week ago. Best damn burger I’ve had in a long time. And a HUGE improvement over what they used to serve.
