The characters are talking about how they do not look alike and adoption would explain that. It's not used in the sense of "You do not belong." So I'll have the #1 Value Meal please. 8-) I viewed the commercial over on Kris’s site and I think it’s innocuous.

I took a satirical approach to it in my blog... http://www.krississippi.com/?p=460 I don't think [the commercial] is negative or positive, it's just something that some who do happen to be touchy (IMHO) might be offended by. “But, I am also not going to make a big deal out of it and boycott, turn the TV off, or lecture him about adoption when the commercial comes on.

What do you think? Is it just something funny and are we being too touchy?”

I don’t think [the commercial] is negative or positive, it’s just something that some who do happen to be touchy (IMHO) might be offended by.

Also, shouldn't the PR agency be boycotted as well? Ok, since I don’t live there… what does the commercial do?

Also, shouldn’t the PR agency be boycotted as well?

Plus their food is terrible. This commercial does nothing to change my opinion of them. It is rude and insensitive, and they should be called on it.

Sometimes they don't think about the effect they have on the overall public. Remember the scene in Santa Clause when Tim Allen speaks up about the Santa Clause tank? But, are they putting controversial ads out there to get people talking? The "morning Tongue" and now this one gets me thinking...

I am biased because I have never dealt with adoption first hand. It seems like an innocent mistake on Mc Donald's part. Perhaps an apology would be in order. But boycotting? That seems a tad extreme. Then again, if they put a negative spin on people who had a lot of children, I might be livid. Hmmm…
