Go to him- tell him how you feel.  If he doesn't respond positively, just slip him a roofycolada. ;)

When did he come out? 2004 or 2005? You know vh-1 is going to talk about him in "I Love the 2000's".

The ultimate in absurd/random but sorta creepy '00s humor. No opinion, honestly.

I'm not sure.  He's like what Max Headroom is to the '80s and the Taco Bell dog is to the '90s.

I heard hollywood's looking to get the rights to the Burger King's life and turn it into a movie. I would definitely pay to see the Burger Kings life story, how he escaped from mental institutions and became the most influential fast food promotional tool since Ronal Mcdonald. The great American rags to riches story. I think Tom Hanks could win his third oscar portraying the burger king.

I think he first appeared in commercials in the early part of 2005, if not the very end of 2004. He is also like the Noid was the the 80's.
