Damn KFC commercials....ouch!
the f&cktards at KFC have embedded the "mosquito-tone" into their commercials and every time it comes on it goes right through my head, friggin painful..... their ad campaign has backfired, now i have a subliminal hatred for chicken.

do any of you hear the tone? supposedly only people in their mid 20's and younger can hear it.... i'm well past that.

Yup, even my crappy laptop speakers played that frequency loud enough to be very annoying. Brilliant ad. It must be higher pitched on the TV ad, which I haven't seen yet. I shouldn't be able to hear it that easily.

I'm wondering if that article is BS.......why would a high pitch tone get the 'kids' attention?
