A List Of Random Ads That Are So Random, They Are Great!

 It's Time For Some Random Ads That Are So Random, They Are Great!

• A American Express commercial has a man trying to buy a plane ticket. Everything is going well until he pulls out his credit card... And it has a kitten on it. He is then led away by airport security, presumably to be cavity searched.
• An Arby's commercial complain has them taking a dig at Subway. It began with someone outside of a Subway and then head to some kind of factory that's far away. To make a long story short — Arby claims that Subway's food isn't as "fresh" as their turkey sandwich.
• An third Arby's commercial takes a dig at Chick-Fil-A in advertising their new chicken sandwiches. In it, the announcer claim that Arby's has put great care into the new sandwiches, then reassures everyone that they still have other meats. The guy goes on to laugh at the notion of a store that sells nothing but chicken sandwiches.
• The Burger King commercials with Ronald McDonald, in a trench coat, ordering his food.
  • 
    Another Burger King commercial from the '70s was a musical in which a man has "tried it here, tried it there, and tried it where they make 'em square", obviously referring to Wendy's.
  • They've also expanded their target range, with a set of commercials featuring Whopper, Jr. and Crispy Chicken going to Wendy's and Subway, and generally acting like weird people
  • A Burger King ad shows The King sneaking into McDonald's headquarters to steal the McMuffin blueprints, then escaping on a scooter. The narrator then admits that their McMuffinalike sandwich is "not original, but still good".
  • One poster found in some Burger King establishments featured a picture of a Whopper on top of a box, unable to fit inside. The caption reads, "Silly Whopper. That's a Big Mac box."
  • Wendy's and Burger King have gotten into dueling commercials that make it clear that you, the customer, just can't win. You can either go to Burger King and get a burger that "starts with a frozen patty, cold as ice", or you can go to Wendy's for their real burger: "Real small, and real fried".
  • The ads for Domino's subs are a huge Take That! against Subway. The first series had employees from Submart secretly trying to get hold of Domino's subs. A later series has several employees looking at all the great ingredients on Domino's subs, while the guy behind the counter complains that all they have is lettuce. (Which isn't even close to true.)
  • It keeps going, too. Krystal (kind of a Deep South version of White Castle) has a string of commercials featuring the famous mascots of other restaurants getting busted ordering from there. One has a drive-thru attendant ask a person in the back of a limo, "Back again your highness?" (It becomes obvious that it's the Burger King a few seconds later.) Another shows an unseen person with large red pigtails (and the famous blue dress of the Wendy's mascot) getting chastised when someone finds the boxes Krystals are sold in hidden in her desk.
  • Ovaltine's chocolate milk commercials were infamous for featuring kids trash talking Nestle's chocolate milk. Not much anymore however: Nestle now owns the rights to Ovaltine in some regions.
  • Pillsbury has been steadily bashing Kellogg's when it comes to their Toaster Strudels against Kellogg's Pop Tarts. In the ads, there are usually two kids, one has the Toaster Strudel and the other has a Pop Tart. The kid with the Pop Tart is disappointed as he/she sees the Pop Tarts is hard as a rock and snaps like a cracker while the other kid gets their Toaster Strudel from the toaster and happily enjoys it, showing how soft and warm it is compared to Pop Tarts.
  • One shows a kid keeps the Pop Tarts in his locker, rather than eat them.
  • Some commercials proclaim the inferiority of Pop Tart's strawberry flavor, as opposed to their other 26.
  • This ignores two major selling points for Pop Tarts — one, they're infinitely easier to prepare and carry with you (unless you forego the Toaster Strudel icing altogether) and two, Pop Tarts are prebaked before being packaged and shipped while Toaster Strudels are fried, so Pop Tarts are healthier.
  • Also, it's commonplace to pop the Pop Tart in the toaster oven, something that the kids in the commercial don't seem to even think about.
  • Pizza Hut ran ads asking people on the street to choose between their P'zone and a cold turkey sub. They choose the P'zone. Even though sandwich places can heat up any sandwiches or serve warm ones in the first place.
  • The Quizno's commercials about the people who eat at "Wrongway" are the latest in a long series of anti-Subway commercials
  • British supermarkets got into a rather vicious commercial war, where each supermarket brought up just how many products it had cheaper than the others. Particularly bad with Asda and Tesco, where Asda started with 'Asda have this many products cheaper than Tesco', who then responded with 'Tesco have this many real baskets cheaper than Asda', and so on.
