I was a little put off by McDonald's latest add spot for chicken mcnuggets featuring this douche

They didn't really seem to be 'selling' anything Really clunky spot. Normally I wouldn't think to much about it, and certainly wouldn't post about it but for whatever reason i kept revisiting it. Check it out to know what I'm talking about.

Combine this bizarre video with the buzz over McDonald's new 50 piece chicken McNugget meal and things start to make sense.

McDonald's wants us to hang out there.

Such a ridiculous notion obviously doesn't deserve the time of day. No one is gonna split a 50 piece with there buddies the way the marketing team dreamed up when they came up with this strategy. It will in all likelyhood be used to fill up hungry kids after soccer practice, but it is showing an interesting symptom of our world.

Could McDonald's marketing be sensing a trend of social connectivity developing in our society? It seems likely, how else does one analyse this video? If nothing else its curious.

Now for something completely different

Radio Shows to czech out.

1. Car Talk
I don't know anything about cars but this show is hosted by two brothers schooled in like low bro borscht belt comedy and it is stupendous. their love of childish puns and very new yorkish mannerisms makes all of their advice and banter manditory listening.

2. Smiley and West
Hosted by Tavis Smiley from pbs and Cornell West Professor at Princeton, this show sort of devolves into self parody at the drop of a hat and is all the better for it. There are moments of insight into interesting current events but mostly it is just kind of funny.

The Band Of The Future Today

The Coroner Can Wait from Wild Pack Of Canaries is the exactly the kind of soulful album Long Beach was waiting for. Rudy and the boys have knocked this one out of the park. don't sleep on this shit.
