Hamburgler

Hamburgler

This badge is over 40 years old but has very little value as so many were made and given away to children who ate at McDonalds. The infamous Hamburgler is a criminal who uses the catchphrase: "Robble Robble." With his black mask, hat and cape - one would imagine Hamburglar would be easy to spot and bring to justice but somehow this villain remains at large. Stealing food that doesn't belong to you is behaviour that shouldn't go unnoticed or unpunished but let's not forget that there are worst people in the world than Hamburglar. Bertolt Brecht once said, "If you want to steal money. Don't rob a bank, open one" Maybe we should think of Hamburglar as just a pathetic pawn in the game rather than a doer of evil?

There are some that say that the people at McDonalds are the bad guys and there are rumours that they have factory farms where cows are pumped full of powerful antibodies. Literally millions of cows are killed by McDonalds every year. Allegedly McDonalds use antibodies to make the cows grow faster than nature intended. There is some concern that the actions of McDonalds will result in the creation of Superbugs that will one day kill us all. In 2016 McDonalds bowed to public pressure and stopped using antibodies in their chickens. It would be great if they did this with beef too! If this is something you feel strongly about we suggest you contact McDonalds president, officer Chris Kempczinski. In the meantime, let's all wear our Hamburglar badges from the 80s with pride and let's all try and be a bit nicer to one another too.
