Vertigo58 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 The man and woman couple. The only two of the Sonic commercials are of the husband and wife that truly cracked me up was when they see the neighbors from a distance and talk through the car window as if to tell them "We will call you later" then they mumble under their breath "Yeah, like we care to really call you, duh" "Whatever looser's". My ribs hurt. The audacity and crudeness is all there but people really do that! Outrageous! The second is one of the 1st they did where he builds up his macho, pompous image and she slaps it down cold each time! I laugh out loud. They are the typical dull/boring suburban couple. Thats why its funny. Genius campaign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get in about 7:15, 7:30 and bring my breakfast with me. And on the weekends the only reason I'm somewhere at 8 is if it's a plane to the islands, lol. I've been wanting to go to Telwink, but by the time we're out of bed there's a huge wait at all the breakfast spots, and I don't do lines for eggs.

lockmat Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Does anyone know what the average cost of long term parking (3 nights) is for Hobby? I'm trying to figure out if it's worth drivin all the way over there for southwest or just staying at Bush and paying the extra ticket cost. I'm guessing they probably equal out, and gas driving there will put me over the top, making Bush the better price.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally would choose based on number of stops on the flight, although it's hard to justify the drive in from the Woodlands, though, if you can get something even halfway decent out of IAH.

KimberlySayWhat Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 The songs are so loud and abrasive and nasally: Teyaxess tuff! Built fer Teyaxans! Football, truuucks, beer, country music, Teyaxess!!

Vertigo58 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 That's because all of us Texan's live in a farm, listen to country music, wear 10 gallon hat's, have cows and a windmill in our backyards. Ja ja! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
