it was bad enough when mcDonald's tried to lure children into their "restaurants" by having ronald sit on the park bench out front, just being creepy, grinning and staring like a statue, inviting children to sit next to him and hork down a "happy meal" with a "toy surprise inside", but now they want us to believe that mickeyD's is what's new and fresh with the youth?

does mcDonald's really expect us to believe that a b-boy, dancing on a street corner, in what appears to be a large urban metro, will make a single dime, throwing windmills to the big mac song? or that two black guys, and their extra stylish white friend would actually hang around in an empty loft singing a cappella, "two all beef patties, special sauce lettuce cheese..."? what's more, i can only imagine how fast i would lose my job if i were a radio DJ, and i played that song during normal programming, as though it were a hot new cut. and i'm not wooing any women by buying them a value meal, taking them back to my penthouse apartment, jumping behind the white baby grand piano and crooning, "girl you got a 10 piece, don't be stingy".

quit pandering to the hip urban youth demographic, ronald. it's getting sad.
