Duck. Duck. Parrot?

We’re still trying to wade through the news that the Aflac duck’s unmistakable quack, provided so vehemently by whiny comedian Gilbert Gottfried, is about to be upstaged by a parrot in an upcoming commercial. Some TV viewers might be relieved to hear the Aflac duck silenced, but we can think of many other ad characters that deserve a silencer even more: like the Arby’s Oven Mitt, who’s been chattering on about Carbys lately, and the bouncing, singing, smiley face from Wal-Mart.
