I wonder what would have happened if the guy had gotten an actual cone in which "Allah" was spelled out in the swirls of ice cream. Seems like it would be easy enough to do completely by accident. Would he have considered it some kind of miracle and bowed down to it?

I consider all soft-swirl ice cream cones to be miracles and bow down before them. With my ululating tongue hanging out, no less.

In a related press release, a spokeswoman for Bugger King says "We fry all our food in LARD".

The Burger King where I live charges 75 cents extra any time you use a credit or debit card.

LOL!!! And, hand out a gazillion free coupons!

If I was the CEO of Burger King, I would of told them to shove it.

On the Up side of this, that'll be one less reference to allah floating around.

"...when viewed upside down and backwards."

Typical islamite perception - of anything.

[reelfoot]

"looked like 'Allah' in Arabic, when viewed upside down and backwards"

Funny, I thought they liked upside down and backwards. (Very backwards: say the 14th century.)

Too bad the second birth didn't take.... stuff it.

Awwwwww
Did I hurt your little feelings.
I'm sorry.
It's been my experience that the second
and third posts often times get more
replies and views than the first.
Believe it or not
NOT EVERYBODY sees something the first time
it's posted.

[-YYZ-]

Ha ha, very good. I must be a little slow today, it took me a second to catch the reference there.

[VadeRetro]

If these people had a real alphabet they wouldn't get confused about this stuff.

I agree 100%..... That is why I linked the first posting in case others would like to see the comments made on it.... Which I though some of were very good. I didn't page the Admin Mod or anyone else to pull the thread or lock it. I was only trying to share with others on this board.

No you didn't hurt my feelings one bit. You only showed your wanna be thread monitor desires or maybe it was your rear end. Now you have a nice day.

An explanation would have been nice.

Thank you for the picture comparison.

I think the Burger King design looks like a soft serve ice cream cone.

I think the Arabic "Allah" looks like three boobs.

"Burkha King"


LOL..

[fortunecookie]

French fryers in pig fat popper stoppers?

I'm sure if lard is used, that will have to be stopped, as well. I think they use vegetable oil these days. I couldn't imagine working fryers in a burqa. Ugh. One wrong move or splash and you'd go up like an old Christmas tree.

"Burkha King" LOL..

Giving new meaning to 'fried to a crispy golden brown'.

FYI the second birth DID take.
Did yours?

It would appear their ad campaign is a smashing success. You're thinking about Burger King a lot more than you used to.
