Is that a photoshop? Coz I can't believe McD's would eff up that badly. But I would LIKE to believe it.

Well, seeing as McD's don't apply the decals to the buses, Ima guess somebody slapped a sticker on top of the McD's ad.

Cuz, you know, you can see it. It's wrinkled. Musta been a rush job.

Based on the wrinkles and the thin white line under the letters, it looks to me like someone cut out the G and then stretched the burgundy vinyl to fit. Vinyl responds in really interesting ways to heat; this probably took only a few seconds to pull off.

Agreed, it looks like the 'US.' is wrinkled, like it had been peeled off and reapplied.

BigV · 02-25-2013, 05:57 PM

I dunnno.... it is *all* beef after all.

It's shopped.

Look. The 'ANUS' isn't even the same font.

The funny thing about "Angus Beef" is that it does not really have to be pure Angus. But it sounds tasty right?

What about 'Aberdeen Angus' is that the same?

'Aberdeen Angus' is a specific breed of cattle, but I believe 'Angus' is a catch phrase with no legal definition, which the advertising boys use to allude to better quality.

Almost correct Angus/Aberdeen Angus have what is known as the tenderness gene but many crossbred cattle carry this gene so black white faced are allowed to be "Angus Beef " and none are tested to have the tenderness gene "certified Angus"does have a legal definition.

I stand corrected, didn't realize they'd gotten so scientifical. When did all this happen?

Angus. Anus?

Not anymore.

Actually, before it just made me think it was made out of some Scot.
