I’m NOT Lovin’ It

Anyone else hate McDonald’s new tagline, “I’m Lovin’ It” and that stupid commercial that goes along with it? Give me a break. I mean, “You Deserve a Break Today” was much better.

Ok … I also hate the new Nextel commercial featuring the Direct Connect feature. I WISH the Direct Connect would go through that fast. Only if you’re standing directly underneath a cell tower. If, on the other hand, you’re in my apartment, be prepared for lots of tones indicating you can’t get through.

I swear, people in the advertising industry really think we’re stupid. Well, I guess they’re right in most cases, but I’m no fool.

  1. Yes, and YES!!!! Damn Nextel – when it works, it’s great – but when it doesn’t, I want to throw it out the window, it’s so frustrating. That commercial makes me long for a better DC, too! You must be watching the game – I’ve seen both of those commercials on Fox tonight!

  2. GOD yes … the “I’m lovin’ it” campaign is awful. AWFUL. Mind you, I feel the same way about McDonald’s food, so there you go. ;)

  3. I hate that McDonald’s ad, too. The first time I saw it, I couldn’t figure out what the hell they were trying to sell. And the tagline is just stupid.

    I also hate that car ad that’s people spouting philosophy (“Say whatyou feel”, etc.) and ends with, “But drive a Chevy”, or whatever it is.

  4. The sooner Mickey Dees realizes that it’s their food that sucks and no amount of advertising in the world is going to fix that, the better off they’ll be. That commercial is beyond annoying. I rank it right up there with Old Navy and Gap commercials.
