You may have seen the Sam Kekovich hug commercial on TV recently for the launch of McDonald’s new Serious Lamb Burger. However, there is only so much humor you can cram into 30 seconds so thankfully we have the internet where creative comedians can deliver longer giggles.

The man’s mans guide to getting serious is part of the web campaign which I think is much funnier than the TV commercials. There are a series of them by the looks as well. Here’s the first one about what to do and not do if you get attacked by an angry swarm of killer bees.
