Self-Awareness

"That won a Grammy? That won a Grammy. That's... that's unbelievable. That makes me want to give my Grammys back."-- Amy Lee of Grammy award-winning recording artists Evanescence disrespects the Baha Men's "Who Let the Dogs Out" on VH1's I Love the New Millennium.

McDonalds has an amazing sense of humor.

It ends with a blonde skateboarding dude in a vaguely urban environment holding up the sandwich and declaring "let's hear it for non-conformity." Off of "non-conformity' they cut straight to the logo. I'm lovin' it.

In this mixed up, uncertain world, there is nothing, absolutely nothing that says "now" more concisely, that portrays the unique moment of our generation with more defiant clarity, than a new McDonalds sandwich that has the ingenuity, the nerve, the sheer gumption to combine a slab of fried chicken and a biscuit into a wondrous culinary miracle.
