🎵Ba da ba ba bah! It’s Brave New World.🎵
The 2000s was perfect
It’s this a picture of kids growing older¿?
It’s the same thing that happened to the fair phone regarding the audio jack
The noisy minority wants it, they yell, write on forums and complain, but they are statically nonsignificant as people keep buying the phone
Same with colors. Why waste millions on cars and buildings dyed with colors no one might want instead of appealing to the broader consumer base?
They are also are influenced by and influencing fashion and trends in color choice as well, just look at minimalism and brutalism. It is also cheaper and more efficient on the design and manufacturing to offer things in less specialized coloration
Proof is that people keep buying stuff
Same as with furniture. There is a reason why Ikea is a whole thing
Going into the meta, imagine someone wants to buy a car. Inevitably, they will think as well on the day they will sell the car. What are you gonna buy? A car painted in a weird color? Or something that you know for sure no one will mind THAT much?
Ithat, or you can go with the theory of the Pixies finally doing their takeover
I’d like to change the order of the meme
The food is also going to be shit like bugs or lab-made pink paste. Possibly made with bugs.
More like hambinger
The harburgler of doom. Robble robble!
The order needs to be reversed. People don’t really read from the bottom up.
Oh, it’s been harbinged. We’re in it.
The soon one makes sense 'cause of global warming. We don’t be able to do it like the good old times.
If you want fast food, just go to Panda Express or something. Way better than Mcdonald’s shit.
Or just a local Chinese Restaurant if you don’t need “fast” food. Actual real food btw
Welcome to McDonald’s, the All-American Restaurant, papers please
I mean, I wouldn’t say no to a brutalist McDonald’s.
I would, but I’m rejecting the mc d’s part not the brutalist part.
brutalist architecture is fucking cool.
$3.99 Big Mac combos 😭
We used to have the only McDonald’s (that I know of) that was in a building designed by Eiffel.
They “modernised” it last year.
From beautiful 19th century architecture to boring modern office lounge. Not everything needs to be updated for current trends.
My college did this. It might have been due to bedbugs. They swapped the cozy built in furniture with this weird vinyl stuff. Bugs can’t get into the seams.
Wow, which piece of shit did they bribe for that? They completely destroyed the interior of the building. Isn’t there any heritage protection?
AFAIK it was part of a larger restoration of the whole building complex (this is the Budapest Nyugati railway station), and the global redesign of McDonalds. They justified it by saying that the architecture is closer to the original - the lower level only became part of it when they built the McDonalds in 1990, before that it was a separate diner for the poors in third class. The furniture is default McDonalds.
The overall restoration on the building at large is not bad per se, but they basically destroyed a symbol of the Hungarian 90s - 00s. This was the place where if you lived in Budapest and got wasted, you could get some nutrition in the city center, and it wasn’t full of tourists because they didn’t think that the railway station buffet was so good.
BTW the local franchisee is trying to cater more to a “fast casual” crowd rather than the bare minimum, so a McDonalds in Hungary has a menu three times as long as one in the Netherlands for example. All I’m saying is that it was a nice place considering. Sic transit gloria mundi I guess.
