I'm kind of fine with not overmarketing fast food to children.

Yes, but the right trajectory wasn't to make the building dull, it was the make better food for kids.

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

The fact that kids aren't begging parents to go to McDonald's any more? Did you read the same thread I did?

That's a fact?

If the food is shit, don't go there. Most people here are just reacting to nostalgia. McD has always been shit food. You just were imprinted from an early age to associate it with going out with friends, getting toys and playing in the play pen. But the food was always garbage.

Yes, the food was always garbage. How is that nostalgia? No-one said it used to be good, they said the building used to be cool looking.
So they make the building look worse and the food stays the same... Now it's all shit.
So what are you adding here?
