Have you seen that new Quizno's commercial? You know...the one with the most foul looking, foul sounding, most unappetizing looking 'things' that look like a rat cloning experiment gone terribly wrong, with a 'Mariachi' twist? There are a select few that may (and I stress MAY) recognize this as a complete rip off from Joel Veitch's Rathergood.com ... if you do, then you are one of a very, very small audience... and if you're like me, you didn't even put 2 and 2 together because you were too busy trying not to throw-up while watching the Quizno's add. I can't even begin to tell you how disgusting I find this commercial...the voices, the rats, the teeth.... what in the f*&k was their ad agency thinking..... I mean, do I remember the commercial?...sure.... and the next time I feel like a sub I'll remember the commercial vividly and if I still have an appetite after that, I'll go straight to Subway.

...But I thought this presented an amusing opportunity.... You see they say they will offer any coupon...... ANY coupon ...., so I thought I'd make a special coupon for you, thespinzone viewers that you can print, cut out, and bring to Quizno's (assuming you still want to eat there) for your $1.00 off. I wonder how many of these coupons we can get circulating....hmmmmmm... When you're there, you can perhaps suggest to them that instead of the 'mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, mmmm...Toasty!' tag line, they should change it to a more appropriate, 'ughh, ughh, ughh, ughh, ughh....Nasty'.

Just click one of the thumbnails for the official tsz/Quizno's coupon and enjoy...if you can.

***FYI-Today (Friday) my brother-in-law took one of the coupons to a Quizno's here in Phoenix and they honored it...so I guess even they know how foul the commercial is..;-)***

I wanted to share with you all an email I received in regards to the Quizno's ad. I got this email recently:

From: Kaen Zue [*******@hotmail.com] To: lauren@thespinzone.com
The Quizno's commercial isn't ripping off rathergood.com you stupid bitch. He made the commercial.
Hmmmmm....sounds like Kaen Zue has got some issues, but I'm not about to help him/her? with that. Now just for the record, a rip-off can be defined as: An act of exploitation or Something, such as a film or story, that is clearly imitative of or based on something else.
Now as far as I can tell, Quizno's is doing just that. In fact, a guy from their ad firm has said that he received the rathergood clip in an email and decided they (the oh so appetizing spongemonkeys) would be perfect for their (Quizno's) campaign. Now what I don't get about Kaen Zue, is why the attitude? Did I say there was anything wrong with ripping it off? Nope. And for the record, I'm assuming that 'He' refers to Joel Veitch and just fyi, the Martin Agency actually made the commercial, not Mr. Veitch. Whether or not he got paid or credit for it isn't my concern and I don't know why you've made it yours. I can take a pretty good guess though and I wish you well in overcoming your fear of failure and hope that you find yourself something to do with your time other than send nice people like me, stupid and pointless emails. OK,
