I liked the dark meat nuggets better. Wendy's nuggets are awesome with honey mustard sauce. Last night I ordered 15.

That has to be by far the most F***ing gayiest commercial/ad that i have ever seen in my entire life. After reading it i just wanted to take a bigg and i mean big SH** (McD's makes me want to poo anyway)> and wipe my a** with it. No, hold on, my A** is too good for that poor exuse for marketing crap. I wish i could personally find whomever is responsible for that ad and go to their house, Pinch a loaf on thier front porch and then burn down thier house. that would be great. and secondly, i truly beleive that if i was offered all the money in the world, i would still not lower myself by putting myself in that gay a** ad. Of course that is just the way i see it anyway.:ylsuper

You know what is sad is that this is a good idea. :( We are not the majority. This ad will apeal to the Majority. Therefore it is good.

marketing-wise, i agree with the ad. but i'm offended that the ad isn't intelligent. then again, the majority of the population isn't intelligent.

I think McDonalds should kick itself in the balls for publishing that ad.

at my old job, we had saying, "common sense doesnt run rampant in this place" and i think that speaks for most people in general. People are sometimes so dumb, that they believe whatever is put infront of them. Hell, look at the presiddent of the US, Im not sure how he wont the election, but his *** is in office, and Ronald Reagan Jr said his daddy was the most incompitent (sp) politician he has ever met, but he still got into office. and the current president is even dumber than his daddy

I try to stay away from alot of fastfoods. I don't eat it like I did many years ago....cholestrol reasons now. All that deep fried greasey(sp?) **** isn't good. Wendy's probably does the same thing with deep frying but I don't sit there and watch my nuggets or fries poor off grease. Basically all fast food for me is limited anyways.

You're very close.... but it's the super cool M3-Civic hybrid!!!! Those fender vents shave at least 2 seconds off the 1/4.

Come to think of it... not only does he have the black guy doing his heavy work for him... but the woman is polishing his spoiler!

curious stereotyping.....

I stopped eating hot dogs when i saw an old old SNL with Ralph Nader when he pointed out that the gov't allows a minimum amount of rat excrement and hair inside hot dogs.

Mmm-mmm.

I'm saying you are all throwing a fit about McDonalds marketing to what you call "ricers" but there is obviously a lot of money in that hobby

Just explaining this is sortof a waste of time btw

not everyone who upgrades an import is a ricer. the term came from the fact that they are japanese cars, and the fact that in that section of the world, Rice is the largest food consumed, so then some people started making it a slang which is suppose put people down. Im going to start a new thread on this topic now.
