Lulu’s Got A Plastic Knife!
I hate the new K-FRIED-C ad as much as I love the “Responsibility” campaign from Liberty Mutual. Co-workers are running around an office screaming that their co-worker “has a knife”. The boss tries to talk her into putting it down, and low-and behold, it’s a plastic knife for cutting her tortured, greasy chicken. Poor taste doesn’t begin to describe this mess. For anyone who sends a child to a public school, or has witnessed violence in the workplace (or, simply watches the news), this one cuts to close to home. Is it meant to be funny? Are the screaming employees just chicken? I don’t get it, but I won’t be surprised when I read that the ad has been pulled off the air due to protest.


You write very well.
