This is the result of demographic research gone horribly, horribly awry. I would love to have been a fly on the wall for the corporate boardroom meeting that dreamed this sh*t up.

wtf does this one have to do with anything at all?

Chinese Pug. It's an Asian-American dog!

My friend named his pug Lee Ki-Chin because of the way he got more water on his face than in his mouth when he tried to drink.

My friend was not Asian, btw.
 
Well, the McDonald's Trivia link is worthwhile:

Ronald McDonald is "Donald McDonald?" in Japan because it makes pronunciation easier for the Japanese. In Singapore he's known as "Uncle McDonald."

Donald McDonald? BWHAAHAAAHAAHAA!! 😀:laugh:

Kathryn Kimura Mlsna still remembers the experience that transformed her from a child into an adult. She was 10 years old. In her family, which ate often at McDonald's®, her parents typically placed the order and carried the food to the table.

"So, one day, I started to tell my parents what I wanted for lunch. But, instead of following past practice, they announced that I could take up the family's order myself. What a rite of passage!"

You have to be kidding..........
 
Also from the trivia page:

The shoe size of Ronald McDonald is 14 1/2 -- or, as Ronald likes to say, "extra long, by extra wide, by extra red."
 
But the big question remains: Why is "i'm lovin' it" being sung by an african-american and not an asian-american?
