Here's K-Fed's upcoming Super Bowl commercial for an insurance firm.
It depicts him daydreaming about being a rap superstar. When in reality he's a fry cook at burger joint.
The ad has caused "controversy." And a formal protest by an orgainzation.
Can you guess why? Think of the stupidest possible explanation you can -- and that's probably it.
Yes, indeed, the restaurant association is protesting the commercial for portraying burger-flipping as a dead-end job and demeaning the millions of American who ask you if you'd like to supersize and/or biggie-size.
This just in: We're all doomed.
Thanks to yls, who considers this yet another example of our increasingly stupid population's insistence on "protesting reality."
