Hi everyone.
I have been extremely happy with your feedback on the creepy Burger King commercials. I have been doing some research into the best way to cease this cultural tumah. This research took me to BurgerKing's actual site where I discovered that you can be the King for Halloween if you want. Or you can choose to be his subservient chicken. I am not making this up folks-I couldn't. To have your own little sojourn into the deepest of Dante's nightmares just click here: (make sure your volume is up enough to hear the music)
For the MRI question....I dunno. Once I left a ring on and it started vibrating like crazy. I had them stop the process and the tech asked me if it got hot. So I would guess that it would just burn the shit out of your leg from the inside. What a bonus.

I think the whole Burger King King discussion has finally proven what I've always known to be true - I have a whacked sense of humor. I don't know why, but his creepy little face cracks my shit up. I am also a fan of Ugoff, the wierd fashion designer guy selling Burger King salads. Some times, when Ryan and I are trying to decide what to eat for dinner, I will ask him if he wants "Shicken or Shriemmp" and then we laugh hysterically.
Oh, and re: the MRI's, there are many stories of people getting killed due to metal getting sucked into the hull of the gigantic magnet while a patient is on the table. Also, the MRI manufacturers are responding to the whole super-sizing of America by expanding the basketball sized hole to be more medicine ball sized. They still haven't figured out how to drown out the jackhammer sounds though.

The MRI tech told me that if you have metal plates etc, you have a CAT scan instead.
There are some funny things that have happened with janitors and MRI machines actually...check them out.

Those magnets are pretty damn strong.

Hi there, been reading you awhile now, can't remember how I found you.
I just came out of lurkdom to say kudos on trying to de-throne the BK King. He gave me the creeps the first time I saw that 1st commercial.
I am telling you, if I woke up with him in the bed looking at me, shit,I would start having seizures in my sleep.

Omigod! The masks! The horrible, horrible masks. The not-worth-$.50 masks they are selling for $10. I hope to god I don't see anyone wearing one of those - I might not be able to stiffle the screams, or stop the pumpkin I will be aiming at their head. Who buys those things??

Well. Isn't that just lovely? I suppose if, God forbid, I must ever have an MRI, I will have the shit removed from my leg area first. You know, rather than have it BURNED FROM THE INSIDE OUT. Oy.
And yes, the subservient chicken is very, very creepy.
