Compé/McCafé?

I'm interested in other people's opinions on the entry about the Compé/McCafé coincidence. I personally think the connection between the Strong Bad's pronunciation the the McDonald's ad campaign is pretty tenuous for the following reasons:

  1. A similar accented pronunciation was used in TGS #11
  2. Every other McDonald's reference on this page is a lot more concrete. This is the only ambiguous reference to McDonald's TBC have made.
  3. Real-World References are generally more clever or funny. I don't think TBC would make a significant and repeated joke based on a commercial. If anything, the commercial was inspired by TGS #11.

I'd appreciate other's opinions on this, thanks! --68.211.112.7 17:28, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Well, you've apparently already read the comments here, so you kind of already know the arguments that exist. We really should be having this discussion in only one place, and since it started there, I figure it should stay there. Heimstern Läufer 17:45, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for clarifying wiki etiquette. I'll go ahead and be bold here since no one reverted my edit at Compy Catalog, and keep any future discussion on the other talk page. J.Huckleberry 17:54, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
