Long John Silver's
Anyone else find their new advert really weird?
They are promoting 'Fish & Fries' (not fish and chips) served 'London Style' wouldn't ya think if they were going to spend all that money advertising something they would actually want to do it right?

My boys were shouting something about that to me only last night!
I did think about going in with a tin of batchelors mushy peas and asking them to nuke them for me to get the theme right!

Re: Long John Silver's
I think the more heinous crime is calling what they serve "fish".
