Flashback: Captain Creepmeister McDonald
Is it just me, or did this vintage McDonald's ad send children a questionable message?

Dish! Help Us Finish This McDonald's Blog!
This is one of the worst ideas I've heard in a long time: McDonald's is encouraging its workers to blog. (Cuz they have soooo much time during their busy, minimum wage-earning days to help McD's brand themselves as the caring fast food joint.) In any case, BellaSugar and I had some fun today imagining what a McDonald's blog would sound like. After you read some of our McMusings, add your own McBlog in the comments below!
