        I don’t call it Micky D’s either. It’s a corporate restaurant chain, not your little brother.

          Dude, that’s just how they call them in Australia. They do that with almost everything, McDonald’s isn’t getting any special attention.
          Get over yourself.

            Quite the opposite. Infantizing the name of a massive corporation makes them seem less like what they are. They’re not your friend.
