Fast food buildings should be more kitschy - like the McDonald’s building should be shaped like French fry boxes or a milkshake or something

The generic black box type building thing makes me think McDonald’s doesn’t believe that location is going to make it and will soon be a vape shop

You just want so badly to be aggrieved by my post



You are trolling right? There is no way you are this stupid.

Gen Z undeniably buys less “shite” than previous generations. They spend their money online and on experiences. This is a fact.

Their current business model is certainly not for families to eat in their restaurants.

Their actual advertising seems to focus on black people.

I think this was a thread a month or two ago. The general consensus is that the RE developers are building generic so that the building can be more easily repurposed in the future.
