yes, the brutalist taco bell aesthetic, will go down in history as one of the more curious periods of fast food branding, i'm noticing recently they're just now starting to feather in color and new signage again

Thanks for reporting the often ignored extinction of wildlife at the local Mcdees

I have never seen a McDonalds that looks like the top pic. I remember plenty with play spaces, but they weren't visible from outside.

I spent a lot of time in the car crossing the U.S. in the 80's and 90's so I saw a LOT of McDonalds. Most of them are bog standard but once in a while you come across one like this where they spiced it up. I've seen one with a train engine out front, one with a parked airplane, etc. There's one in Tucson with a giant T-Rex statue in front of it. I've also seen some crazy play places with slides going out of the building and back inside. Would've loved that when I was a kid.

Homes, you're either doing steak completely wrong or something else needs to be discussed with your doctor

Code enforcement in cities and towns, especially more are more to blame for this than any other factor. Where I’m from the more affluent suburbs, barring in any kind of real individual expression or even signage.

We’ve been turning in Russia all this time without even noticing.
