They started airing my most hated commercial, with the [jerk](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5h2_eIzoYU) who can’t talk to anyone till he has his McDonalds coffee then he’s all nice.

Anyone know the actor who plays the guy, who we all wish we could throw hot coffee in his face

🙂

Googled around, found plenty of info on who made it, but not the cast.

Maybe they’re keeping his identity secret so it won’t destroy his career.

Hey, come on. He’s just an actor. It’s only his character who’s a douchebag.
