    When I talk about how much I miss the 90s McDonalds, I'm mostly complaining about the loss of a third space. My parents would go to McDonalds so we had a safe, climate-controlled, indoor play space, and we could spend hours there for the price of something off the dollar menu.

    I don't know of anywhere comparable these days. Anything indoors is going to be expensive, you have to get the city to unlock the local hoops, the cops start asking questions if you just want to hang out with friends, and if you have too many friends they make you get a permit to use the public park.

    Discovery Zone, man. I actually feel bad for the kids that never got to experience Discovery Zone. Lasted for like 2 years. It apparently failed because they had a mountain of debt (all those plastic tubes are capital intensive buildouts) and adults had to sit around while their kids played.

    I feel like if you made it work like a gym membership for your kids, and had something for adults to do off to the side, you might be able to make the numbers work.

      That is long enough for our plan

      We will collapse the human empire by convincing the peasants within it to purchase art from artists until the economy becomes untirely imaginary (as all art is at least somewhat imaginary) and collapses.

        You're right. I just didn't feel like chopping the original meme and stitching it back together. I just made my little addition to the top. I guess that did make the post a little...shitty.

        Yeah, I can get not wanting to spend the time/effort. Though, there is a difference between a shit post and a shitpost. People always conflate the two.

            Hold on there's a McDonalds I remember going to, and I'm trying to think if it was in Scotland or England, but we stopped off there and the fucking place looked near enough like a villain's lair.

              Inside the top one, you can hear screams regularly going like this:

              No, please no, I don't wanna fucking die! No! Please no, you fucking fucking bastards! AAAAAH, IT HURTS, IT FUCKING HURTS! AAAAAAAAAHHH, MY ARMS, MY FUCKING ARMS, YOU FUCKING BASTARDS!

                A new McDonald’s commercial has a burger stolen and the character shouts “it’s the hamburger thief”

                Cultural erasure

                      I shudder to think what the 1908s and 1970s McDs looked like in the US.

                        It should have been replaced by a 20mm turret.

                            The food is also going to be shit like bugs or lab-made pink paste. Possible made with bugs.

                            I don't know if that will be better or worse than what they currently serve up.

                                      We used to have the only McDonald's (that I know of) that was in a building designed by Eiffel.

                                      They "modernised" it last year.

                                      Corpo interior designers should be hunted, and theblicenses should fund repairing damage they die.
