Please don't take this the wrong way, but I really don't think any of these commercials were made with you, or your generation in mind.
I mean no offence in saying this
(look, I learned to state that and not just expect people to know... Aww, it's only taken me almost 21 years ^^) butI think you need to consider the fact that the youth and not the old geezers (geezer is not a bad word, don't kill me) are paying the BK pay checks.
It's like Hip Hop, Rap, Gangsta Rap (or what ever you wanna call that category) death metal and what not. Older generations were not ment to understand it. It wasn't made for them. Some do, and that's cool. Some teens get Jim Morrison. They're a minority tho' cus it's not made for us or our generation. Things have changed (a little).
Every generation likes to believe they invented rude, humour, sarcasm, music, culture and trends. None of us did. But all of it is still tailored for the current generation, and it will try to shock the older generations. It's always been like that, always will.
Who knows, 20 years from now I might say "Damn kids, get of my lawn". While I highly doubt it (like any other person at 20 would) it doesn't change the fact that history seems to be pretty determined that I think and say so at some point... It's just things.
Tbh tho, if you stop buying food over a commercial... Well, I dunno... Seems rather, you know, odd!
What on earth does a commercial have to do with taste? I love BK, and they could have the bloody tele tubbies in a sing along with Barny the dinosaur from hell commercial... And I'd still eat it.
I don't go there because they make me laugh, I go there because it beats other fast food joints both hands down. (Ok, Pizza hut is not the be underestimated)
As they say:
There's bad, and ok... And then there's BK!
