Watching tv this week, noticed new McDonald's ad. Rampantly anti-intellectual.

Setting: snobby coffee shop
Two women, one reading the paper, another reading a magazine
Woman 1: "Y'know, I heard McDonald's is making lattes now"
Woman 2: "McDonald's? Well, that's just...just...fantastic!"
Woman 1: "Now we don't have to listen to jazz all day long!"
Woman 2: "I can start wearing heels again!"
Woman 1: "I can read gossip magazines!"
Woman 2: "I can watch reality tv shows!"
Woman 1: "I like television!"
Woman 2: "I can't really speak French!"
Woman 1: "I don't know where Paraguay is!"
Voiceover with info about fabulous Mc-whatevers
Woman 2: "I just wanna show my knees, y'know?"

Sigh.

Snobby intellectuals don't wear heels? Or show their knees?

That ad makes my blood boil, honestly.

Thank goodness I stopped watching TV five or six years ago....
