Far from deleting this article, I would suggest adding an entire new category called "McWords." Currently, most of the words on this list exist in the categories "McDonald's" and "slang." A "McMansion" has nothing to do with McDonald's, but does fall into the McWord category, and this would be more accurate.

One thing that I'm surprised nobody mentioned - not only is McDonald's s not happy with the inclusion of "McJob" in Merriam-Webster (an article is linked on the appropriate page), but they went so far as to threaten to sue the dictionary for including the term. When I find a news article on that, I'll link it to either/both the McWord and McJob entries. --L. 15:26, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
