“RAAAAAAAGGGGGEEEEE! EXTRA SLIME PLEASE! IT’S LIT! SUN IS DOWN, FREEZING COLD!”
These are just a few of the phrases that have been plaguing minimum wage earners at McDonalds across the nation. The intro of “Sicko Mode”, the sound of someone saying goosebumps, and people replying “CACTUS JACK SENT ME BIATCH!” has more than likely caused these poor souls managing drive thru’s to go in fits of rage, bouts of depression, and we a society let it happen.
This is all the result of Travis Scott and McDonalds having the collab of the year. Yeah, seriously, if you said the crossover event of 2020 was going to be Travis Scott and McDonalds, I would have dialed 911, but here we are folks. It’s actually sort of what McDonalds has been doing for a few decades. You remember when the Rick and Morty Szechuan Sauce, caused a nation wide panic? Same shit, different fan base. It’s a strategy that has worked for McDonalds in the past, finding a cult like base of fans and integrating their food into the culture of that base. Genius. But oddly has not worked out as well for other fast food brands or chains.
The recent promotion has already gained a fuck ton of ground, between the quarter pounder shortage and the viral meme’s left and right, McDonalds is bound to report some impressive sales numbers for the quarter and it would probably attribute majorly to the Travis Scott Meal. But the fun for the suburban white boys that are edgy and cool doesn’t stop there. No fucking way. McDonalds and Scott also teamed up to release a shockingly high cost clothing line and accessories. You ever wanted a pair of 200+ dollar jeans with a logo of a cactus or some shit on them? CATUS JACK SENT YA. From jeans to realistic looking chicken nugget pillows, hype beast that proclaim the Travis Scott tribe, rejoice. Take that yeezy fans, you fucking losers. You guys just have shoes and over priced matted shirts, WE have a McDonalds meal AND overpriced shirts. McDonalds seems to get hit after hit when it comes to a cult like following and inserting their brand. Like those meth smokers that go on TV claiming an alien probed their asshole, McDonalds is probing the fanbase butthole with all sorts of products and not just food items either.
You can love it or hate it, but McDonalds is making another hugely strategic crossover. Now I guarantee that 35-year-old reformed convict does not want any of your fucking Cactus Jack Fanboy shit, so please for the love of god don’t blast Sicko Mode into the drive thru window, that guy is just trying to make some money and get on with life. Those prayers will probably go unanswered though.
Travis Scott and McDonalds, whowouldathunk? Not my ass, but numbers don’t like. So go get that jack burger with extra slime, make sure that shit give u goosebumps every time. You deserve it king.
…… Idk guys I’m trying to keep up with the lingo.
Anyway, that’s my take on it. Until next time. -GS
