So, KFC is introducing a new Boneless Variety Bucket, and they want to score points with the young people. Do they put a toy or CD in the bucket, like normal people? Of course not. Instead, in a new ad, they include an extremely high-frequency whiny, buzzing sound that apparently only younger people (and their dogs, I imagine) can hear. See the ad here. Those who identify the source of what’s being called the Mosquito Ringtone get a chance to try the Boneless Variety Bucket before everyone else.
