Yawn. The King Found on McDonald’s Bun. Goes Viral. Yawn.

We thought the industry had grown up. We thought it had left this planted viral idiocy behind. We thought advertisers finally realized people can see through this crap the first second it appears. Sadly, there are still those in the business that believe the public is gullible enough to accept whatever is shoveled down their throat. That, or it’s all post-viral ironic brilliance.

So here we have a video of a bunch of guys at McDonald’s at Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco. On the bun of a Big Mac they see the face of Jesus…uh…Burger King’s The King. Yea, he’s right there embedded din the bun.

Commenting on the potential inaccuracy of this planted viral, one commenter wrote, “What the fuck? That’s not the bun from that Big Mac. Try to place the right kind bun next time dumb ass!!!”

And on a related note, one commenter shared feelings on why all these “miracle appearances” occur on hard-to-decipher bread and/or dirty fabric, writing, “Why does Jesus always appear on crap like bread and filthy blankets? If I were Jesus I’d want my image on nice things like a jet ski or an expensive guitar. Show me a video of a miracleLes Paul and I’ll be born again!”

So there you have it. The King invades a McDonald’s Big Mac. Or, well, something like that.
