Panera, I Hate Your Radio Commercials!

Panera, I've never had a problem with you. Your sandwiches are okay. Your soups are pretty tasty. You make pretty delicious baked goods, and I think your coffee is delicious. But, please, for the love of all that is holy, stop playing your goddamn radio advertisements that feature two Panera patrons having a discussion in your restaurant and a narrator describing their experience. I hate these commercials (and I'm not the only one). The patrons are annoying, and the narrator sounds like a creepy pedophile.

Here's an example of the dialogue in these crappy, crappy radio sinkholes:

(creepy pedophile narrator) "A father and his young daughter arrive at Panera. "

"Dad, I'm really sorry I smashed the car "(creepy pedophile narrator again'- says the daughter, as she takes a bite of her Mango Chicken Salsa Salad)

"It's OK, pumpkin, (creepy pedophile narrator- says the father, as he dives into his Bacon Supreme Sandwich), it's only a car. Now let me buy you a cinnamon roll."
