On the Death of Ronald McDonald

Upon hearing that ‘Ronald McDonald died, I wondered to my roommate, James, if McDonalds was going to have a memorial meal named for him.

“Yeah,” James said, “They are going to call it the McDeath Happy Meal.”

That bit of irreverence, aside, I do have to admit that a Big Mac and a chocolate shake are my comfort meal choice.

This, of course, doesn’t prevent my thinking McDonald’s and Disney are among the reasons the world hates us. They are considered arrogant, culture destroying monsters. They certainly haven’t raised the esthetic of their native land.

One Big Mac and, please.
