1. Hilarious!

6. They are so offbeat and original!
Okay, they're also pretty dumb. But I've seen far worse commercials that are conventional. This one's got some originality going for it, and in 2004 that's an honestly refreshing change.

If anyone's on acid, it's the people who made that goofy commercial!

14. Rather good
someone certainly is on acid. I just spent a half hour there and Hairy saved Blode day when he killed the evil Nazi crab with the zeppelin. I looooooved it.

22. Rathergood.com
is making a FORTUNE from those stupid little flash thingies, and I am such a hopeless whore for them! I love them and they never fail to crack me up. The first time I saw the commercial riffing on "we like the moooooooooooooon!" I just about fell down laughing. Alas, it's something that's impossible to explain to one's SO.

12. So bad it's good. Definitely a cult niche market.
I saw the first version of that on the internet, I think it was "I like the Moon".

What the hell are those damned things? Gerbils? Whatever they are, they're trippin' out on 'shrooms and acid.

God damn annoying commercials...

23. Rathergood's "I Like The Mooooon!"


Best damned thing I'd seen on the net in a long time!

I'm sure it was copied under contract. I think Rathergood (Joel Veitch) is a professional video artist.

25. They're stuffed dead rodents
Yum.

Having them sing in grating voices doesn't make them any cuter, or make Quizno's more appetizing. THEY'RE STIFF STUFFED DEAD RODENTS!

ugh...queasy.

26. Worst. Commercials. Ever.
Edited on Mon Feb-09-04 07:11 AM by RatTerrier
And their sandwiches aren't that good either.

Go to Cousins' Subs. Their food's is pretty decent, and they don't make obnoxious commercials.
