It took a few months of seething hatred, but I've now finally figured who this annoying McDonald's "Don't Talk to Me" commercial reminds me of...
...Mark Kozelek from Red House Painters and Sun Kil Moon. See what I mean?
The hair, sad eyes, and sleepy drawl. It's totally (not) him. Plus Koz has acted in a few Cameron Crowe films, and he even had a somewhat memorable line ("High school girls!") in Almost Famous. Perhaps he'd sing with a little more urgency if he loaded up on that terrible delicious McDonald's coffee.
