The first one is the series of commercials put out by Checkers featuring a talking bag. I find this mascot, named Mr. Bag, annoying on so many levels. First, his voice is straight out of a bad blaxploitation film. The bag is always sounding like he's trying to keep his hustle game strong. His look is very suspicious.He has stubble around his mouth (I call it stubble) that resembles that of a hobo clown and he looks like he's scheming all the time. Why would I buy something from a mascot like that? Even the Hamburgler didn't have that much of a creepy factor. That, among other reasons, is why I won't eat at Checkers anymore.
Onto the second commercial which is for Mountain Dew Kickstarter. It features a character named Puppymonkeybaby(which picture is on the bottom of this page). It is (wait for it)a creature that has been spliced together the parts of those three things. It goes around saying"puppymonkeybaby" while walking around like very creepy marionette puppet. At least Mr. Bag kept in the realm of what it's suppose to be selling. Is this commercial suppose to alert us of the acid trip we're about to go on when drinking a Kickstarter? I think I will pass on a drink that its commercial makes me think of the movie The Human Centipede.
