[as] starting trends?

[on:]

So I'm watching FOX, I know I'm gonna get jumped in the parking lot tonight, but anyway, I was watching The Simpsons, and during the commercials I saw one of the biggest rip-offs I've ever seen: it was a man in a chicken costume sitting on a couch. It was advertising Buger Kings new sandwiches, but the only thing I heard was "we ripped off hockey chicken, we ripped off hockey chicken."

Now I realize that many people on PEEL don't get [as] but what they did was put a man in a chicken costume in their lounge and put a web-cam in so all could see this "hockey chicken" sitting in the room. Now does this sandwich chicken ad not sound exactly like hockey chicken, I think so.

No, it's more of a ripoff of Chicken Boo from Animaniacs, the only difference being instead of a man in a chicken suit, it's a chicken in a man suit.

actually, I'd say it's more them extending that "subservient chicken" thing they had online a while ago - remember, the link that got posted 50 times in the link thread in offtopic?

I saw that too! I had no idea it was a spoof though.

Um, I believe the "Subserviant Chicken" thing was put out by Burger King, who's also doing this new chicken v. chicken thing.  It's all connected.
