Talking MacDonalds - Parental Advisory

This time I am leaving an email link in as attribution... I have no links to this thing though beyond I am considering subscribing.... And this sure made me smile so I wanted to share, even if it may be old:-

Oh and the filter will have done a number here - but I am sure you can fill in for yourselves....

THE SIGN THAT SAYS YOU'RE OUT OF TOUCH
=

Oh dear, oh dear. This week ****-filled fataurateurs, McDonalds
became a laughing stock when they unveiled a new online
advertising campaign for their (US only) 'Dollar Menu'. The ad
featured a smugly focus-grouped college-dropout hipster saying...

'Double Cheeseburger? I'd hit it. I'm a Dollar Menu guy'

Hoo boy. If only McDonalds' advertising agency had had the
wherewithal to consulting urbandictionary.com before parroting a
bit of overheard street-speak in a cynical attempt to appeal to
America's urban youth. Doing so, they'd have discovered that 'I'd
hit it' isn't actually a general 'street' expression of approval.
Rather it's a very specific euphemism for 'I'd **** it'. As in
'Katie Holmes? I'd hit it.'

So now the Dollar Menu guy likes to **** cheeseburgers. Fo
shizzle.

But what other slogans can we look forward to from the Dollar
Menu Guy in the coming months?

...

Quarter Pounder with Cheese? Now that's my kind of hot beef
injection.


The McRib? I'd love to cover that smoking rack with my special
salty sauce.


Chicken McNugget Happy Meals: I love to stuff **** in my
children's mouths.


Fries: Sometimes I put them in my ass.

That add campaign came out last summer I believe, and we made fun of it for weeks at work. LOL

I wouldn't. She's pregnant with the next silly scientologist leader / meth dealer.
