Wow, they're rolling in late today...

  • Orbitz' new game, "Dunkin' Mascots."
  • Wow. This is a SimCity-type game that allows you to run McDonald's. Not a McDonald's franchise - the entire global corporation, from the slaughterhouse to the stomach. At first, it was unclear whether this game was merely a fun pasttime or a complex attempt at social/poltical commentary. All of my doubt was erased when I took the tutorial, which describes the McDonald's headquarters as follows: "McDonald’s is not a fast food chain but a brand, a lifestyle, a symbol of western culture's superiority. "
  • That McDonald's game is a buzz-kill. Falafel King remains my fast food-themed game of choice.
  • Interesting. This woman "was charged Friday with smuggling a human head into the U.S. without proper documentation." Bureaucrats and their petty paperwork...
