Yeah, so I really do not like the game Monopoly.  It takes too long for someone to win, and to my mind, there is very little strategy.  I also really don't like McDonald's restaurant.  Their food is chemically engineered to taste good, and then even after the synthesized cooking process it still doesn't taste very good.

 

So why do my kids like both of these things that I detest so much?  And why does McDonald's insist on combining this "nostalgic" game with their "classic" food each year?  Do they not have my kids attention enough with the $4 Happy Meals....the Happy Meals that come with the toys that my children can't live without until we get home when said trinkets immediately become part of a pile where playthings go to die (big breath)?

 

How long must I bear this burden?  Well, Mickey D's says only until Nov. 3rd.
