not enough




my to do list isn't big enough
my playlist isn't big enough
my portuguese vocabulary isn't big enough

This is a funny McDonald's commercial, although it's not considered that great because this situation could have been applied to any type of food. Therefore the propaganda did not serve its purpose of making people believe the most desirable food is McD's.
