The funny thing is, although the picture of the fat kid eating McDonalds is supposed to be a commentary on the sad state of childhood obesity in the United States... that picture appears to have been taken in another country.

Check out the letters on the window sign.

Yeah, but I have never seen one in that language.  Spanish all over the place, French or Quebecois in Canada, but I've never seen one in Turkish or Greek.

My cat just on the keyboard and left half it's hair on it.

To top it off, it blocked the monitor to this site for 3 minutes. I saved the day by moving the browser to the other monitor.

Take that cat!  8)

I just can't believe that pic. The skin around the wrist is unnatural. Its gotta be a fat suit on a fat kid, but not that fat....

Believe it, it's chunk x10.

Ronald McDonald is evil in any carnation IMO.  This chick one looks better though.  The old Ronald is:

a) Gay
b) Scary
c) a total tw@

A big scary gay tw@ - whoever came up with that for their company mascot must've been on some serious mind-altering drugs.

Edit: auto-censor that, you board

They'd also have to pay the actor more.

In unionized commercials, the moment you say anything, you have to be paid extra. If you have to put anything in your mouth/eat you get paid extra. Etc...
