McDonaldization

n. The process causing one's shit to become soft and abnormally malodorous as a direct consequence of eating at a McDonalds restaurant.

Mcdonaldization

The easiest, fastest, most efficient, predictable and calculable way of doing things. Getting the product out as soon as possible. Quantity over quality philosophy. Often by breaking the job up into smaller tasks that anyone can do. This way of doing things may also include a lot of machines. The machines do most of the work.

mcdonaldization is leading to a simpler world; one day, the machines will take over and we'll have ourselves to blame for relinquishing all control to technology all for convenience.

Ronald Mcdonaldization

The brainwashing that occurs by McDonald's on the minds of young children. These kids become infatuated with McDonalds through the incessant advertising. This is shown especially in the documentary Super Size Me.

The poor children are undergoing Ronald McDonaldization as we speak, all around the world. Many of them will unfortunately become obese, and some will suffer a lot because of the insidious effects of Ronald McDonald & Co.

The McDonaldization of Singapore Math

When bots would select word problems from a question bank, then forward them to ghost editors in Bangalore, before sending the final proof to POD publishers like Amazon Kindle to distribute both printed and e-copies to customers worldwide.

Guesstimate how much the McDonaldization of Singapore math mass market is worth every year, as professional pirates from India, Pakistan, and Nigeria try to cash in.

mcdonalidization

1. The process by which the principles of the fast food restaurants are coming to dominate more and more sectors of American society as well as the rest of the world.

The workers lose their identity, because they have to learn scripts and follow so many generic rules that they can't be themselves.

2. The process by which society takes on the characteristics of a fast food restaurant.

I got in trouble at my McJob today for not pretending to be super happy. I'm going to have to conform to Mcdonalidization or they might fire me.
