if you are offended by this commercial then you are indeed...a chimp.
-
anyone have any idea what this song is????? or was it just made for the commercial (not the classical song, the other one)
-
Irish people rock, and I can say with some authority that my Irish side of the family has a permanent red face and slurred speech, hee
-
I know someone in Washington DC that looks just like these Chimps. The resemblance is simply uncanny!
-
I'm a powerful admirer of Irish Music and dance. I think what this commercial basically means, in its musical aspect, is that the Irish music is so beautiful that every single living being can swing to its awesome beat.

My grandmother's maiden name was Murphy - you don't get much more Irish than that - and she LOVES this ad. Anyone offended by this must spend every waking moment searching for something to be offended by; what a sad, miserable life yours must be.

Who in the hell honestly looked at this and thought "Oh yeah they're Irish" - I just thought it was funny.

Stupid

no. it's just computer animation. they use actual HUMAN dancers to make it more realistic. not comstumes, no chimps being abused, n no whatever.

It was a kid in a monkey costume. So dont worry animals weren't exploited only children.

It is highly offensive to the Irish American people of this country! You need to remove it from the air. It is wrong to compare any race of people to chimps what is this 1907 or 2007. I used to like Arby's. Whats next, chimps dancing to rap music for you new BBQ Rib sandwich ? Maybe chimps doing the Mexican Hat dance for the new Carneaseda sandwich ? No, I know, Chimps in double breasted suits and silk ties and a Godfather Chimp for the new meatball sandwich.

Are you telling me to take this off youtube or arbies to take it off televison. I am an Irish American and I think this commercial is hilarious. I don't feel that it is comparing us Irish to animals, I think its a fair commercial. Freedom of speech.. Are you not an Irish AMERICAN?
Let it go. It obviously does not have malicious intent.

I am an American of Irish heritage. Read you history the Irish were called a "simian race" or a "simian people." Through out recent history cartoonists would portray the Irish as having "monkey features." At one time they were thought to be "hairless monkey's." Besides the third chip from the left is out of step.

Good then, I wish I was a chimpanzee. I admire them to tell you the truth.
