This quite disturbing Burger King ad from Taxi in Canada suggests that buying a BK Steakhouse XT sandwich would be a good way to impress a homely drag-queen version of yourself on a hypothetical date. I'm offended by the implication that I'm cheap enough to take my dates to Burger King. Then again, it's also true that the female me would probably put out if the burger were good enough. Still, I wouldn't ruin the vibe, like this guy does, by making those cutesy talking-burger moves.
