as i drove by the mcd's on my way home from work today, i took a particular interest in the big golden arches' sign: monopoly back. which made me wonder...is the (a) monopoly of verbs what is back? or is it just the (b) monopoly of the word "is"? or is it the (c) monopoly of the letters "i" and "s"? or was (d) the 16yr old pimple-prone employee too lazy to hang up anything more than absolutely necessary for people to understand the sign's true message? i'll leave this one up to you, america, but my vote is for the latter (d). it also doesn't help that all the employees at this certain mcd's are either spanish-speaking illegals who are disinterested in verbs or undereducated provo high sophomores who don't participate in extracurricular activities, such as reading.
12 oct update: mcdonald's has reassigned the pimpled teen. the sign now reads "monopoly is back." hallelujah.
