I've always just assumed the McD-people had a better understanding of their customers than most such corporations have; that they know you start hating it the moment you're not hungry any more and the realisation of what you've just eaten hits you.

It's where you eat your dinn-dinn.
Yes, but "I love it" doesn't work as a catchy slogan. Sometimes it's permissible to stretch the rules a bit.
For example, does anyone remember the Smothers Brothers? Tommy's catchphrase was "Mom always liked you best." The superlative "best" is grammatically wrong, of course, because there were only two of them. The comparative is the correct form. But "Mom always liked you better" isn't funny!
It's not often, but has happened more times than it should.
When people ask me if our pork is kosher.

ROTF! That made my day 
Of course it is. It never eats shellfish, or mix meat and cheese.
^and if BurgerKing were a bit tastier and more customer-friendly (publishing the origin of their ingredients, for a start) I'd switch to them out of sheer grammar-naziism 
But things being as they are, I simply frequent the Turkish and Asian restaurants in my neighbourhood instead They can spell, use locally grown seasonal ingredients and their food tastes awesome!
Paradoxely, petroleum, in spite of being the result of decomposition of all kinds of animals and plants, counts as clean when it's been processed into clear plastic. A rabbi explained to me that plastic (like glass) counts as crystal and therefore is always kosher, by definition.
Boy, am I glad that I'm an atheist and need't bother with this complicated stuff! (and I may eat shellfish! Yay!
)

)How about all those "All NEW Episode" announcments. There is no such thing as a "part new episode"....maybe if its a clip-show but still....lol
According to Buffy the correct answer is "No, it just makes you look purple" ;-)
And of course businesses who tell you can call and speak to a live person. I know they mean instead of a recording, but my first thought is 'as opposed to speaking with a dead person?'
Do you mean aeroplane? Which does make kind of sense since we talk of aerodynamics, aeronautics.
Aero-breathing life. wait....
Most American Jews figure that pork and shellfish are kosher as long as they're in Chinese food.Shellfish are forbidden too? - Hmm, at second thought: makes sense for the religion of a desert-dwelling people.

Not to mention all those strip joints -- excuse me, "gentlemen's clubs" -- that feature "live nude girls." I guess they didn't get many customers when they had dead nude girls!
Playing aero-guitar?
That's great!
Reminds me of the phone calls Catholic churches sometimes get right before Christmas: "What time is midnight Mass?"
One time some asked me why not and I explained to them things about rumination and cloven hooves and that even if pork COULD be kosher ours wouldn't be due to processing methods. Basically our food doesn't meet Jewish dietary doctrine so don't eat it if you or a loved one want to be kosher.
