It Makes Their McNuggets Vibrate

A mother in Beaverton, Ore., is outraged after she took her kids to McDonald’s, and actually sat and listened to the music on the speakers in the children’s play area. “I heard a song come on and it was singing ‘I Wanna Sex You Up’,” said the woman, who only wanted to be named as “Suzie”. Her children are 4 and 6. “My daughter came up to me about halfway through the song, being six years old and curious, asked me what ‘sex you up’ means.” Not their fault, the restaurant’s manager says. The music is provided by McDonald’s corporate offices, and local stores have no influence on what’s played. (RC/KATU Portland) ...If you think what goes into kids’ ears at McDonald’s is bad, you should see what goes into their mouths.
