McDonalds

Let's throw it out there, I am a little afraid of clowns. I'm not sure if it was from seeing Pee Wee's Big Adventure too many times while growing up, or if I have always been suspicious of people. While watching the old McDonalds commercials, I could not believe how horrifying the old Ronald was. I wouldn't let my kids eat with that maniac, with the dixie cup on his nose full of spray paint, and his "make up" which I can only assume is taken from the bodies of his past victims. McDonalds had a way of cycling through the focus groups in their commercials. It would begin with the kids, then move to the parents, then to breakfast, then back to kids, then to the late nighters. The cycle would often go back to children, which made me realize that I, as a 22 year old man, have been eating childrens mush for many years. It's not that I never thought about how awful the food actually was, or how it doesn't seem to be real meat. Seeing, I guess, why I have always been craving it is what made me a bit sick. I hate how much control the media can have. They are always talking about someone who just got married. Usually, well always, the person deserves no such praise at all, and instead should be stripped of all their belongings and put in a glass box in the earths mantle. They bombard people with useless information 24/7, so that the people go on to believe that what they are hearing is actual news. Do people know that right now Tokyo is under a massive threat of needing to be evacuated? Does the news tell about Uzbekistani women having their uteris' removed with out consent? NO http://adonis49.wordpress.com/2012/04/21/uzbekistan-doctors-ordered-to-cut-out-womens-uterus-without-knowledge-or-consent/ But I'll be goddamned if you can't walk down the street and find out the latest celebrity gossip or who won the damn ball game.
