UPDATE:

McDonalds throws shade and refuses:

Dear Burger King,

Inspiration for a good cause... great idea.

We love the intention but think our two brands could do something bigger to make a difference.

We commit to raise awareness worldwide, perhaps you’ll join us in a meaningful global effort?

And every day, let's acknowledge that between us there is simply a friendly business competition and certainly not the unequaled circumstances of the real pain and suffering of war.

We’ll be in touch.

-Steve, McDonald’s CEO

P.S. A simple phone call will do next time.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I should've written the BoneStationU. Missed opportunity right there.

Here? Possibly after McDonalds accepts, if they do.

In Bizarro World though, they may exist already, possibly costing $1,000 without any complements or beverages.

That, or make a really flat, wide hamburger and put some Thousand Islands on it.



I read that McD rejected it.

Yeah, at McDonalds you can tell the employee guy to stack 2 bigmacs on top of eachother or put a burger and a chicken sandwich between the same buns. Yeah, McDonalds is fucked up.
