What is going on with McDonalds marketing?

I got this through the door today...

McDonalds vocher book
What the fuck? - Are they zombies?

I realise that McDonalds are having a hard time at the moment, which makes my heart bleed, but I think this desperation has had a very detrimental affect on McDonalds marketing team.

What message is this supposed to give potential customers? Maybe it’s don't be a idiot, have a salad instead (and not from McDonalds, you fuckhead).

Mind you, with a ‘Buy one Big Mac – Get one free’ voucher, I know where I’m eating tonight.

(Closes bathroom door)
Bwwweeauurrrrgh. Brrreeau... blei... aareaaaaoooouuurghaa. Argha. Awwauh. Wauh. Wah. Wa. Uwoo. Hoo! Sheesh.
(Re-emerges wiping chin)

Ah, that's better. Now, let's bomb the twats.

We should fucking bomb them... mind you a do have a dirty confession... every so often, once every couple of months I will buy a Big Mac... but as an act of selfless sacrifice I will give that up to see those golden arches, and Burger Kings etc to be destroyed...

I don't get it, you have proper chinese food restuarants and Indian restuarants as well as all the shit versions, but no proper burger joints? Does that mean fundamentally all burgers are shit? I just can't believe that.

Hmm...

Sniffy said...

Yo!

Change the menu and repackage it any way you like, it's all total shit.

Give me a pastie or chips and gravy any day. At least nobody's pretending that English shit is anything other than completely bad for you. Yeah, and i'm lovin' it.

Yes Herge, sorry for not commenting today, but I can't comment or post from Base 1 because of the firewall. I've been at work in job 2 this evening (kerCHING!). That's the road tax paid.

Herge Smith said...

Justme - In a good way or a bad way?

Sorry T, I just need the sniffy blog... it's not an evening without it.

Sniffy said...

That is sick.

Herge Smith said...

I seem to have lost a comment - probably now on someone elses blog...

Anyway, what I said was - Lisa, your response to McDs was subtlety brilliant!!

Sniffy said...

She's quite a one, isn't she? Even when she's telling people off, she's turning them on!

Sniffy said...

Did you get Big Mac vouchers from them for taking the time to contact them with your concerns? That'd have been ace!

Sniffy said...

Lisa, I wonder if you'd take the time to tell me off for something??

I actually like McDonald's quarter pounder with cheese and they're "fries" are OK. This shit is OK once in a blue moon, but it's so rammed down people's throats - particularly children's - that it becomes a normal part of the diet for some folk.

Herge Smith said...

Fuck, if that's the case I'm sending a complaint to Teen Fanny Magazine...

Actually what the hell am I on about, I've got the biggest directory of porno at my finger tips.

Ha ha ha....

Sniffy said...

You know, I've never looked at porn on the internet, or anywhere else for that matter.

Herge Smith said...

True.

Honestly, when I was a boy, if I'd had internet porn, I'd have been totally blind by now with two massive twisted claws for hands and a penis as thick as a pencil (i'm actually as thick as marker... which i know, ain't much better).

Herge Smith said...

Tina, you should. You wouldn't believe the filth out there... it's quite shocking.

Do you read porno then? or do you just not do it at all?

Sniffy said...

No, no porn exposure whatsoever to tell you the truth.

Spirit Of Owl said...

Here, I give you, Bret Begun's piece on Burger King's Greg Brenneman. This is not a joke. I haven't even changed the names.

Burger King Chief says Get Fat the Bastards IN HERE NOW!

Sniffy said...

I don't think I'm interested in porn to tell you the truth. although having never really looked at or watched any, I couldn't really say for sure.

Herge Smith said...

That's insane Lisa!!!

16 year olds are wanking ALL the time, and when they're not wanking they're getting hard on's because someone brushed up against them, or when they're on the bus.

Fucking idiots will push this poor bastard over the edge sending him to counciling - it's bonkers - he'll end up a sex offender I bet...

"Mummy said touching my wing wang wa s bad and that all women are dirty little fishes".

Fucking morons.

Lisa - get me this womans phone number, i want to speak to her.

Herge Smith said...

Very interesting article Spirit, and to be honest, it is a shame McDs is always the one getting a kicking - I'm sooooo complicit in this.

I think it's the way McD's go about it, they do all the kiddie stuff, getting them hooked young, the fucking clown...

I guess compared to that everything else is quite tame...

Time for BK to get a kicking, but first, I'm popping out for a flamer...

Herge Smith said...

Or try to fuck some girl in ass.

Blimey, this is going down hill fast.

Herge Smith said...

Oops, americanese... I mean hump some bird in the bum.

Anonymous said...

Show me a 16-year-old boy who hasn't got a frantic wanking schedule and I'll show you a very ill person indeed.

Karen said...

Yeah, get the boy a fucking date. Let him use the car, give him money, tell him and the girl to have a good time. Just don't drink and drive.

I love BK food (and some McD's food) but in the interest of not being too fat a bastard I only eat it once in a blue moon. Shit that grease is tasty, though!

Sniffy said...

So what porn sites should I look at then? Are they free?
