Burger no kami-sama

[telophase]

Hamburger Game (YouTube) Three Japanese friends try to hit 10 burger chains in LA in one day. Megwin is a YouTube celebrity in Japan, I gather, which is why the videos have a lot of the feel of those Japanese game/variety shows where people talk about stoicism and effort and stuff while doing absolutely ridiculous things (but...you don't have the heads of a celebrity panel superimposed on the video showing their reaction as they watch, so that's a good thing).

Anyway. His impression of burgers in Jack in the Box commercials: "They look fresh and cylindrical." Yup, pretty accurate.

It's 5 videos in total, which should automagically play one after the other if I've got the correct URL. I've only seen the first 3, through Carl's Jr, as of this posting.

(Post title is what I think he's saying at one point as the subtitles say "Burger God.")

OMG this is so great! XD I'm just watching the first one and when they get to Jack in the Box and his English is too bad for them to understand I just cracked up. The problem with this is that it's set in LA, so most fast food workers are not going to be native English speakers themselves...

Maybe I'll see somewhere I recognise! I almost thought that Jack in the Box was the one by my house, but it turned out not to be.

Later in the series, they start saying things like "This is Burger King. If you ask them for a Burger Queen and there is one, then we'll help you eat it."

I am so sorry for Falcon right now. Hahahahaha

I especially enjoyed the bit where he urges the driver to inch forward a bit...thus landing the Tyre Roulette wheel directly on his name. XD
