So I know a guy who was in a band that had a logo involving a crucified Elvis. He told me he once went down to Tijuana and he saw a guy making the famous velvet paintings and he had a bunch of Elvis and a bunch of Jesus being crucified. So the guy I know asked the painter if he could paint Elvis being crucified. He said he almost got chased to the border by incensed Catholics.

Recently, McDonalds announced an initiative to remove all instances of Ronald McDonald from their stores.

So, Ronald McDonald removed all instances of McDonalds from around him.

Ronald the unburnt breaker of diets heir to the French fry throne

I believe that Ronald may be made of asbestos

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 17 points 1 day ago

That's funny cuz he tastes like lead paint

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 41 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He clearly started the fire

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (11 children)

Maybe. All I know is that Billy Joel and his crew didn't.

[–] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why do some folks have a [+1] after their names?

[–] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Are you using Voyager? That might be the user tags feature that's counting your upvotes per user. You can toggle it in the settings.

[–] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 hours ago

I am, thanks for the info. I just enabled that feature recently and didn’t realize that was part of it. Cheers

You know how fiberglass is made up of resin and slivers of glass? Well asbestos also forms into slivers...

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 5 points 22 hours ago

He looks like he's contemplating murdering the person who burnt his shop down.

[–] dudinax@programming.dev 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

It secretly believe in ronald. It's just that I hate him and wish he weren't real.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

My child, have you thought about how your the only thing standing between your soul and eternal hellfire is a Quarter Pounder meal deal?

I'm an elder millennial and I remember thinking there was a very real possibility that Ronald would be in MY McDonald's at least ONCE when I went there. I thought about that when I was a kid too.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I remember when I was a kid in the 80s, some McDonald's had a yellow phone which you could pick up and "talk to Ronald." I was terrified of the idea.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

lol I was a kid then too and I’ve never heard of this. What kind of shit would he say? Was it just a line to the managers office? And what kind of things did the kids say to him? It’s like some kind of help line “My parents beat me and make me wear long sleeves in the summer.”

Or more likely it was just some stupid recording.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

I'm sure it was just a recording, but I was terrified of the idea that you could pick up a phone and talk to Ronald. And I wasn't a kid who was afraid of clowns or anything.

It doesn't help that it looks creepy as fuck.

[–] baggins@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I worked at McDonald's and they had an official Ronald actor visit once, so it could happen.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 4 points 21 hours ago

I remember a new McDonald's opening in the 80's & both Ronald & Grimace were there. I also remember being angry that day because there were too many kids on the playground.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

"Mac and Me" propaganda works!

The hell is that statue made of that it doesn't even have soot on it?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The same stuff that stops their burgers and fries from ever decomposing, I guess. PFAS?

[–] Bosht@lemmy.world 3 points 22 hours ago

Easy: he's made of shitty photoshop

[–] Anegro_Montoya@sh.itjust.works 2 points 20 hours ago

God damn Ronald! Okay okay... I believe in magic.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

You'll be safe under his golden arches

[–] atro_city@fedia.io 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The god of hell fire himself. I'd watch the series.

[–] meyotch@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 day ago

I think you could get a five episode miniseries with an epic arc where Ronald, God of Fire takes humanoid form and finally accepts his sexuality.

Thy kingdom come, burgers well done,

[–] wabafee@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

This could become a religion.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

It's so crazy to me which random ass people claiming some connection to divinity get elevated to dios while so many other cheap magicians are discarded.

Turns fire into fried hamburgers!

[–] RadicalEagle@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Now everybody’s down at McDonalds, they’re down with Ronald McDonald, and now they’re hitting the bottle and everybody cool.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 0 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (2 children)

This is in poor taste abd very obvious photo manipulation, Ronald isn't even sitting on anything.

[–] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 1 points 9 hours ago

this is in poor taste

Translation - I'm desperate to draw attention to myself by being offended on someone else's behalf

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 10 points 17 hours ago

Fuck walking on water, Ronald can sit on air.

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

He’ll always remind me of this: McDonald’s rap
