I grew up with Sir Mix-a-Lot blasting on the "boom box" and I have to admit when I saw Burger Kings "I Like Square Butts" commercial, I laughed my @$$ off. Then my daughter walked in the room and said, "daddy look, Sponge Bob." Luckily the commercial was over and she went about her day and forgot all about it. Then later that night I saw it again and realized what they're selling with this commercial – a freaking Kids Meal! This commercial would have been funny if it was for a new square burger and aired on late night TV, but to be selling a Kids Meals is totally inappropriate.

So I ask, what were they thinking!?
