Hey Wendy's: What the Hell?

As I am sure you've noticed from previous blog posts, I watch a good share of TV.

One thing that makes me laugh are when commercials contradict themselves.

The subject of this week's contradiction?  Wendy's.

Dave Thomas, founder of Wendy's, used to be featured in most commercials.  When Dave died in 2002, Wendy's started looking for other ways to spread the message.

Recently, however, the original Wendy (Dave's daughter) has started being featured on TV:


"Yes, I'm that Wendy" she says, and then talks about quality and care and...

...well, all the things you care about when you're ordering a Frosty at 2am, drunk off your ass...

At the same time, "Cool Wendy" started taking the spotlight in other Wendy's commercials.

Yes boys, the carpet does match the curtains...
Both sets of commercials are running parallel to each other, which just confuses the hell out of me.

Which one is the real Wendy?

Do they have a 'we care' Wendy, and then a 'let's party, I'm gonna take my top off' Wendy?

And, if so, who the fuck is THIS guy??

Hey, me too!  They call me Tyrone "Fire-crotch" Jones...
Can someone who works in Wendy's Marketing Department please help me out and explain this shit to me??
Please Share it! :)
