Just what did fictional Quizno employee do to get “burned”? Shove his wang in this toaster oven, probably. But this homoerotic ad promoting Quizno’s new homoerotic phallus sandwich The Torpedo is arguably as gay as sandwich advertising can get. Without Justin Timberlake singing “Dick In a Quiznos Box.”

When I first saw this commercial on TV, I laughed out loud, literally. It’s funny. And the guy is cute. And when he says “Only $4.00” really sexy, it made me wanna bottom in a pile of bologna and cheese. MMmmmmmm.
BrianZ
Oh yes! I had to rewind this bit of advertising genius just to be sure that I was hearing things correctly. It is easily one of the most amusing ads I have seen in a long time. Yea, and he’s cute 🙂
“We both enjoyed that” indeed! LMAO
koalaboy
I’ll take two! Double the meat! lol
Mr. Enemabag Jones
I saw this ad during TNA and nearly wet myself laughing 🙂
“Say it sexy.” LOL!
I hope other advertisers are watching. THIS is how you do an homoerotic ad that is funny and not offensive.
Chloe
oh hell, and I thought the subway “5-dollar foot long” was funny.
parisinla
lol.

How long before the maniacs organize a boycott??
GayIsTheWay
Cute, smart and funny commercial.

“Put it in me, Scott.”
Fantastic!

Kudos to Quiznos for creating perhaps the first “homoerotic” ad that I don’t find “homophobic.” Folks like ESPN should take note. The key is to laugh with the community, not at it. This almost makes me want a hot Quiznos sandwich, something I’ve never, ever had.
Mr. Enemabag Jones
If you’d like to tell Quizno’s how much you enjoyed their commercial, here is their email:

When a company does something wrong we should attack. When a company does something right, we should praise–and loudly!

The above email asks for all your info, this one is more direct:

Does nobody remember when they sponsored Battlestar Galactica? “Admiral Cain was a lesbian. Mmm, toasty.”
Chris
“You know we both enjoyed that Scott” ROTFL! That’s the money line!
Erick
With this and the lesbian love sponsorship, Quiznos has got to be the gayest sandwich company around. So naughty, I love it.

They changed it!
They changed what the toaster said! He says “say with with passion” now and they took out the “put it in me” bit. And the employee is not burned anymore, he was wiping the toaster down with a shamy.
SUCKS.
The ad is stupid now.

@boots134:
They have two verions. The version you are referring to is shown during the day. The linked one is shown in the evenings.
MZL
Scott can “put it in me” anytime… 😉
DEEPTHROAT
And he’s lefthanded. Odds are Scott is gay.
scott
omg. I so do not get the gayness of this ad. I must be really dense. I see what you guys are saying but it’s way too subtle for me if that was the original context.
Alexa
I couldn’t believe it when I saw this ad on TV the other day, I had to rewind the Tivo and make sure I wasn’t hearing things. I love it. I’ve never actually eaten at Quiznos, but I will definitely give them a try now.
John
@DEEPTHROAT: What does being lefthanded have to do with being gay? is there a connection
Rowen
Cute ad, though I’m willing to bet they got the idea from watching Wet Hot American Summer
Mark
@scott:
Oh, Scott… Come over to my house and I’ll show you what that left hand is for.

I just saw the ad at around 1 a.m. on TBS and it was not the “night” version. They took out the “put it in me” line and changed other lines as someone described above. I have seen responses by people urging a boycott; I wonder if they have permanently pulled the homoerotic version from some/most/all stations.
mike
This commercial is so f!*^@%ing gay i cant stnad it. And all you homos are freaking DISGUSTING
Geoff
@mike: Yet…you’re here…on a gay site…watching a gay themed commercial.
cheesedog

albert
“Put it in me, Scott”
Hahahaha!
Bryan
Quiznos recently changed the ad, so I guess it was too gay. Go to toastytorpedo.com to see.
Bryan
The new ad sucks.
aaron
I dont want to eat ANYTHING that has touched that oven.
Sig Man Floyd

CHEF J.D. WINTER
I don’t know any other way to get something started about
this… so here goes: The latest Quiznos Ads.. are by far the most
idiotic crap I have seen yet…and I used to like Quiznos… but
there Ads lately are SOoooo Gay Sex.. overtones.. undertones… what
ever you want to call it… it’s just Sick… very poorly done…and
in poor taste… I can’t imagine even any Gay person thinking that’s
even close to good!…. Would you want someone like this “Scott”
idiot to serve you at any Quiznos? … un-shaven.. acts like an
idiot… intimidated by some talking oven… “Put it in me Scott”…
“I’m waiting for it Scott”… “I want you to do something for me
Scott”… and the idiot says; “I’m not rubbing you down with that
Shamy again”…. and the Oven says; “We both enjoyed that”… and
then… only $4 dollars… say it with passion Scott… More
Passion… Even More Passion” Give us a #@*^! Brake Quiznos…. Who
the hell are you trying to sell you Sandwiches to anyhow???… even
the talking Baby got a little old… but it MUCH better than your
latest Ads… You really need to Fire your Advertising Agency!

NOW QUIZNOS HAS 2 GAY GUYS IN A BATH TUB DOING WHO KNOWS WHAT OVER A FIRE. CAN THIS FAG DOING THE PROMOS BE ANY MORE OBVIOUS?
