Actually, "I'm loving it" works for McDonald's. The last time you were there, did you notice on the drink cups how many languages the phrase was translated to? In German, it became, "Ich liebe es," ("I love it"), and in Quebec French it became "C'est ça que j'M" ("it's that which I love"; the latter word is a compression of "j'aime" that incorporates the Golden Arches logo).
In all these cases, the phrase is written to be four syllables long in order to fit that last part of their jingle regardless of what language it's sung in. Take it from this musician--it makes economic sense to do it that way because then McDonald's doesn't have to spend extra advertising money getting multiple composers, multiple bands and multiple audio production crews to produce different jingles for foreign markets. All they need to do is hire one band, one production team, and make one backing track, and then they can bring in vocalists for each language and record them one by one.

McDonalds annoys me. And I worked in it for 4 years! They annoyed me then too, but I got paid to put up with it.

No expression of happiness or enjoyment annoys me. I think that any expression of pleasure is a good thing. Whining and complaining annoys me.

Hate it too! Kinda reminds me of the old "cool beans"...yuck! Every time I hear it I cringe. What about when folks say "meet Miss so and so" or "I'm going to call Miss so and so"....errrer

There are other phrases that annoy me more. Such as "God bless". God bless whom??? Whom is God blessing??? Where is the object of the sentence?
That pisses me off so bad.

Yeah, they're quite annoying. Sounds like they're quoting McDonald's commercials from a couple of years ago. I hate commercialism...BE INDIVIDUALS, PEOPLE!!!!

The one that drove me nuts and I still hear people say it now and then was "Cool beans."
God, that got on my very last nerve!
