Oh no! The buildings that serve unhealthy slop aren't as colorful as they were 30 years ago! We must talk about this!

I mean it's true and freaking sucks. The playgrounds were cool and getting a kid a happy meal and letting them loose on the playground gave parents a well deserved break. Yes it's "corporate slop", but it's better than the current bland corporate slop. As a whole society is becoming more "child unfriendly" as people have less children, and I find it kind of sad. And less colourful too. Compare car colour options from the 90s/early 2000s to now. So much grey, white and black, compared to the colour options of the past which stood out.
Unhealthy food as a treat + exercise is better than unhealthy food as a treat with no exercise for sure.
Yeah, it's a genuine complaint tbh, corporate bullshit aside. The "millennial beige" epidemic is right up there with it. It just makes it feel like everything is intentionally bland and boring.
It's sad when Burger King has better play places on average lol.
