Once opened up, a message inside the wrapper states, “We are all the same inside.”

” It takes two hands to handle a Whopper “

Except that it has AIDS, has a distinct lisp and is into figure skating.......
........and the NBA
.......and the NFL
........and the US Military
Eww. That just sounds gross. The last thing I’d want to think about while having a burger in a fast-food joint is the imagery of a bunch of creepy damned homos. Just reeks of filth and disease.
Burger King can take its faggot-burger and shove it where the sun doesn’t shine (which, would be ironically appropriate, come to think of it).
