I have no idea if this is a national ad or local, perhaps for a test
market, but Burger King has been running an ad on TV that is annoying
for a whole lotta reasons.

The ad opens with a young couple (20's?) at a BK drive-up window asking
for extra ketchup, extra napkins, etc. Suddenly you hear the sound of
tires squealing and see the couple jerk as though they have been
rear-ended. More squealing and smoke, then they get pushed ahead, away
from the window by a car with a guy who looks smug and orders a steak
burger something-or-other. Then they cut to graphics of the burger and
its contents.

Does that make anyone want to pull up to a BK window? I'd be afraid
some jerk would try to copycat the commercial and run into me! It's not
a very good example/model for young teens who drive badly enough as it is.
