McDonald's introduced its I'm Lovin' It jingle in 2003, built around the five-note ba da ba ba ba hook that became one of the most recognised advertising sounds in the world. Online, creators began boosting and distorting familiar brand stings for comic effect, in the same way as the Taco Bell Bong, turning short logo sounds into meme punctuation. The loud McDonald's version spread through soundboards and short video edits, where its instant recognition makes it useful even without any picture of a restaurant on screen.
