Or maybe I was just really hungry because ... well,l I was in Montana and it is a place where you can eat a lot more, those wide open spaces or something. But after that meal, which we ate in the car on the way to some camping trip, my whole family became raving lunatics about how much better Quiznos was than Subway.<BR/><BR/>The next time I ate was somewhere in NY- wasn't there one on W14th St? Well I can't remember. Anyways, it sucked. Must be the NY water.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362859175287085919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-22779030244966987652009-02-19T12:52:00.000-05:002009-02-19T12:52:00.000-05:00but seriously, i hope it's a spoof. otherwise wha...but seriously, i hope it's a spoof. otherwise what sort of idiotic ad agency would put together a rat mascot for a food company?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-3117174039782338832009-02-19T12:43:00.000-05:002009-02-19T12:43:00.000-05:00I just changed by grade to F-I just changed by grade to F-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-15755160067281738202009-02-19T12:27:00.000-05:002009-02-19T12:27:00.000-05:00i, too, give the ad an F. who wants to think about...i, too, give the ad an F. who wants to think about deranged rats nibbling on your sandwich?<BR/><BR/>on another note, i now have a craving for a quizno's sub!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-56324781165006771782009-02-19T09:20:00.000-05:002009-02-19T09:20:00.000-05:00i remember that quiznos on st. marks. it was slap...i remember that quiznos on st. marks. it was slapped with numerous DOH violations and eventually shuttered. i think they had a rat problem, so quite ironic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-3741189718137035752009-02-19T08:49:00.000-05:002009-02-19T08:49:00.000-05:00It was done by a guy named Joel who lives in Engla...It was done by a guy named Joel who lives in England. It used to be just a cute little website he did that few knew about. Now he has done commercials, has a band, and seems to make a living off of it. Here is the link:<BR/><BR/>http://rathergood.com/<BR/><BR/>My personal favorite is Iggy Pop's Ocelot Shop:<BR/><BR/>http://rathergood.com/ocelot<BR/><BR/>He also had a great Led Zeppelin Viking Kittens short that he must have received a cease and desist for, since it disappeared off his website years ago. Not that you can't find it other places now:<BR/><BR/>http://www.public.asu.edu/~mharp/viking_kittens/VikingKitten.htmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-51988257168520609332009-02-19T07:41:00.000-05:002009-02-19T07:41:00.000-05:00Thanks, Alex.
