McDonald's Co-Opts "Keep Austin Weird" Slogan

Oh, dear. What is supposed to be a slogan celebrating individualism and local pride has been repurposed for this McDonald's ad at Seventh and Brazos. And, as Republic of Austin notes, it apes Daniel Johnston's "Hi, How Are You" style. So, is this brilliant localized marketing or a depressing final nail in the coffin of Austin's weirdness?
