'That was your dad's favorite, too'

[Dick Whitman]

Pepsi: No one creates ads as offensive and tone deaf as we do.

McDonald's: Hold my beer.

McDonald's pulls fish sandwich ad about a boy whose father died

 

[bigpern23]

Tone deaf for sure, hardly offensive. Kinda just dumb, really.

 

[MisterCreosote]

150 complaints? That's all it takes?

 

[LongTimeListener]

It's a horrible thing to find out your dad liked McDonald's fish sandwiches. What a loser.

 

[Oggiedoggie]

"Crap. My father is Captain Crook?"

 

[Buck]

Dad liked McFish and orange soda?

What was happening on these things? Is this a Filet-O-Fish with a fish body, a fish eating a Filet-O-Fish or a fish wearing a Filet-O-Fish mask? No matter the answer it was a disturbing thing to put in the outdoors McDonald's playlands for all those years.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

This his dad?

 

[Batman]

"Dumbasses."

 

[Alma]

If only BK had done it...

Hmph, your dad was a Whaler.

He killed whales?

No, son, he was fat.

 

[Alma]

Watching the commercial, you gotta love the reveal of the Filet O Fish. There's nothing subtle about the reveal; Bret Bielema would find it borderline erotic.

Now if they shared a liking for Shamrock Shakes, that'd be something else entirely, bc those things are tasty and awesome.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

"I was just thinking about how your father hung on long enough for the McRib to come back one more time."

- There's nothing to eat here.
- What do you mean?
- Take a look. There's nothing I can eat.
- Get a trout dog. Forget it.
- Do you have any fish here that isn't breaded?
- It's all prepared the same way.
- Get a whaler. Or a clamwich.
- Ever hear the word blemish? Want me to eat something fried?
