Everything is so drab compared to what it used to be

The new styles look way better.

WAY better. You're a child or a clown if you think that first McDonalds design looks good.

I guess if you like boring, bland and sterile architecture then sure.

the second one looks like a prison and there’s nothing unique, fun, or even nostalgic about it.

No man, the new styles are soulless, ugly monstrosities.

I would assert, both are more purposeful marketing statements than true actual architectural design.

Easily built and replicated, cheaper than making something aesthetic.

The modern look has been sold to hipsters because they have no soul. Its just a cheap substitute for artistic architecture.

That’s because it was designed to appeal to children. Kids want McDonald’s, so mom and dad take them to McDonald’s. It’s literally the formula McDonalds used to become the McDonald’s we know, or knew, today. It’s not supposed to appeal to single 20somethings with no kids. It’s supposed to appeal to families.

We see this all over society, a bunch of 65 year old tv executives programming for “what young people like” yet less and less young people watch tv. Products marketed to young people, yet Gen Z is less materialistic than older generations, etc, etc

You just want so badly to be aggrieved by my post
