Regular patrons of McDonald's may already be aware of something missing. That something is Ronald McDonald and if he isn't missing yet from your local Mikey D's he will be soon. They started phasing him out in 2016 because of the killer clowns that were popping up everywhere and scaring families and children alike. The killer clowns were a marketing stunt for a horror movie but got out of hand through both social media and people dressing up and terrorizing strangers. One would think that if that was enough to make McDonald's abandon Ronald that he would have been gone sooner, like when Stephen King's "It" came out in late 1990, but again, what do I know?
