The "I am officially old" thread!

[wonko the sane?]

NOPE! Not a birthday thread.

Can someone PLEASE explain to me what the hug is going on with the grimace milkshake? Cause I am absolutely baffled.

Fast food hiked their prices for no reason and it's backfiring, so they're trying to lure us back with quirky viral marketing.

I looked it up when I saw it. People just fake die from drinking it, haha

******* seriously?

Glad I only eat frostys then.

why is this picture so funny to me

 

[Platypus Prime]

Wait, 'fake' die? That's just pathetic. In MY day, McDonald's was the main cause of heart disease, obesity, cholesterol issues, high sodium, you name it. And you could do it all in ONE stop. THAT was convenience. now you have to go to two or three places just go get a few of those things...kids today just don't have the quality service we had...

I used to be able to say Ronald McDonald didn't creep me out.
That picture changes things, though.

Actor and musician Jared Leto has made a shocking claim that the Grimace Shake meme really happened to him, like seriously.

And nostalgia.

I’m not sure Grimace has even been featured in marketing in almost 20 years. About the only people that remember the likes him and the Hamburgler are us old farts.

[Spin-Out]

My line, you were actually stealing my line. But hey, thanks for getting the answer anyway.

 

[MEDdMI]

I stumbled across one of the videos before I knew it was a thing, it was funny. Some of them try too hard. Too lazy to look up good ones.

The Onion but for video games

Or more specifically, the video game spinoff of a full-on Onion clone, the Hard Times. Or did they shut that down when they found out Hard Drive was the only part of it that was getting any traffic?
