I can't decide if it'd be more or less creepy if they'd kept his cape instead of changing it to a trench coat.

Like I understand a cape would look pretty silly but he's already loving weird and trench coats don't exactly carry a lot of positive stereotypes.

It seems to me it would be really gross to eat a hamburger while wearing suede leather gloves.

Maybe that breaks a kosher rule or something.

Unusually for an onion article, it's not as frony loaded eith jokes either


This is not the first time a McDonald's character has stirred controversy for its violent nature. In 1982, the company introduced "Shakes McJunkie," an emaciated addict who robbed characters of their possessions, which he then sold to buy McDonald's shakes. He was later reworked as "The Machead," a homeless, wild-eyed Big Mac addict who turned to panhandling and gay prostitution as a means of supporting his severe burger habit.

The Hammurderer is quickly becoming regarded as the worst-received advertising mascot since Kool-Aid's 1989 discontinuation of "The Grapist," a huge purple monster who sodomizes thirsty children.

So in a nostalgia move, McDonalds has "re-invented" the classic Hamburglar. Instead of a moon-faced petty thief who loves lovely hamburgers, he's now a scruffy man wearing a Lone Ranger mask who could pass for WWE Superstar Christian.

Here is the new Hamburglar in all his creepy goodness:



"Call the police and I'll kill you."

Just by looking at this you know that every part of the character was designed by a committee. No single person could make something this creepy.
