Crazy Quizno's commercial

[Erin]

Erin: 
> > I was watching TV with my family, and this thing came on, 
basically it's these two little animal puppets who look DEAD, and who 
sing in horrible high-pitched voices so garbled that they have a 
little translation speach bubble. I'm assuming because their 
voiceboxes have decayed, being dead and all? Like watching roadkill 
is really gonna make me want to eat there.   You can see it here:

Erin:
Wow, okay, after calling about seven people and giving them the 
website so they could watch, and then laughing about it with them, 
I'm now ready to concede to the commercial is actually pretty darn 
hilarious.  So perhaps it has suceeded in its aim?  But no, we all 
agree that it makes us definitely want to avoid eating at Quizno's 
for the forseeable future.

I looked up their press releases on the website, and the Martin 
Agency is the ad place responsible.  And- get this- those *things* 
are supposed to be monkeys.  I watched it a couple more times, but 
Roadkill Hamsters are still all I see.
