Yes -- it's a new viral marketing strategy funded by Burger King. The agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky, one of our main rivals in the business, created it.

Burger King, eh?  Well, I didn't get to completely "have it my way".  I've been buffaloed.  Most of my tender chicken requests were met with hands on hips and wagged fingers. 

I was just trying to wing it, but apparently I was ruffling some feathers.

He wouldn't perform my requests- no matter how much I tried to egg him on.

I'll have to start over from scratch.

Maybe your instructions to him were scrambled?

I got him to squat in the floor and lay an egg. But he did wag his finger at me after some of the request I gave him.

To have your tender crisp chicken sandwich "your way" at Booger King.

Ha ok. This is why "stick a Jeff Stryker dildo up your butt" didn't work.

Thanks,

Yeah, it's coded so that specific key words make him perform certain actions. Any profanity prompts the coded video to draw on the finger wag or a scratched head. Any time you use the word "me" in the command he will look into the camera and turn his head from time to time.

It's also coded for the basics, which is how most people get into it. Stand on one leg, jump, sit down, smoke a cigarette (try that one, it's funny).

He only responds to 300 commands, and everything else is programmed to look for words that are associated with a general expression.

Of course I realize I'm being a total buzz kill. Blame it on the day job.

I don't think so.  I tried to make them over easy.

Remind me never go to a movie with you that you've already seen.

What a "hoot"! Even though I'm not "fried", this "cracked" me up.

Oh, yes, this one will be viral. I just emailed all my friends - in retribution for all that crap they send me ;D

I got him to "roll over and play dead". When I told him to "bark like a dog", he peed all over the sofas. ;D Bad chicken, bad chicken.
