Via Mashable:

An employee at a McDonald's in Taiwan has recently become the object of the Internet's increasingly creepy affection, thanks to some candid photos.

The female cashier, Wei Han Xu, or Weiwei, possesses a distinctively doll-like appearance. Her unique face prompted customer and blogger RainDog to take photos of her and post them to his blog. In the blog post, he repeatedly refers to her as "Lolita" (perhaps in an effort to reach his more high-brow fans out there).

This act alone could be considered pretty piggish, but soon enough people were clamoring to figure out which franchise the newly dubbed "McDonald's Goddess" worked at.

Fans flooded to the McDonald's in the Da’an District of Taipei City to get a look at Weiwei.

While the cashier has appeared on several game shows as a result of her newfound "fame," her manager isn't exactly thrilled.

According to an excerpt from Rocket News:

[Weiwei's] manager isn’t too happy about the buzz because many of these fans tend to crowd at the counter trying to talk to or snap photos of her, and if she’s not on duty they end up leaving without making a purchase.​

Weiwei has apparently been working part-time at McDonald's for five years, participating in promotions that required her to wear a little pink maid's outfit.

While it seems from her social media that Weiwei doesn't mind the newfound attention, here's hoping that her fans view her as more than french fry-slinging sexual object.

Stay creepy, Internet.

[XenodudeX]

[ItIsOkBro]

Of course she looks like a children's doll.

Absolutely disgusting.

"Lolita" - I bet they have no idea of what that means in reality.

 

[Ishida]

Looks like one of those creepy japanese robots.

I need more pictures.

 

[BibiMaghoo]

Why are the bags in English?

 

[echoshifting]

Lolita? Blech. This is gross.

It's creepier that they're also taking pictures of her backside.

Dammit, John!

Classic honeypot.

This real-life human being has reached the uncanny valley.

 

[Madness]

I'd have authorities keeping tabs every single person who came to see her and then leave if she wasn't there. She looks like a little kid. I'm not surprised, remember that one inmate here who all of a sudden started to get marriage proposals because he was hot, or that one employee from target everyone liked and then girls sent death threats to his girlfriend. It's a crazy world with social media.

Reminds me of that thread of the dude in S Korea that just hung out at an eatery all day bugging the girls that worked there. Can't remember much else though but I know El Torro made an epic gif of it taking scenes from I Saw The Devil.

 

[bananafactory]

I won't lie I've started getting coffee at a McDonald's every morning because of a really cute and friendly woman there

Came here to post that, I remember that thread. People eventually found out that he had a lot of strange stuff going on.

My wife models Japanese lolita fashion. Lolita doesn't always mean that other thing.

Exactly what I was going to say. She's a human who looks like a robot trying to be a human. Really weird.

 

[Slayven]

Kind of uncanny vallyish

 

[ExplodingKetchup]

Men can be so fucking creepy.

I would leave that job ASAP

 

[cyborg009]

Holy shit.

I need to see this.

 

[FStop7]

My wife models Japanese lolita fashion, which originated in Harajuku. Lolita doesn't always mean that other thing.

does lolita fashion which originated in Harajuku happen to resemble clothing worn by little girls?

 

[Zombine]

I'm not concerned about beautiful women behind the counter. All I want are McGriddles.

 

[bluelightningduo]

Looks like shes 10

She's actually a 3,000 year old dragon that just looks like a 10 year old girl. So it's cool.

Too loli for me.

Oh boy here we go

 

[Acorn]

Why are the bags in English?

I asked this about English words randomly on Japanese store names/products/etc I was told basically because it looks "cool". Maybe same thing there? Plus McDonald's branding never changes, just like coke or whatever.

 

[injurai]

The other thing is the origin of the word. It's not like you can divorce that connotation from the word. Anyways, usually I see it pretty aptly used to be honest.

 

[Firemind]

I expected something more far out there.

Do not want.

 

[Big Chungus]

wat

 

[Wario64]

Nice legs

 

[ExplodingKetchup]

Oh boy here we go

lol what. Is this not true?

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

Much better to get the gist of the thread before the gif.

edit: My bad was SunhiLegend that did the gif. Was post 508 but link doesn't work anymore.

 

[Zing]

Is there a face under those six layers of makeup and foundation?

 

[Slayven]

I pretty sure wearing high heels in a fast food kitchen is against eh Geneva convention.

Yeah, because women are saints, right? Remember the case of this guy?

People can find people to be very attractive. Shocking, I know.

 

[PaulExcellent]

That's uh...
That's weird.

She's cute, tho. >.>

 

[Valkerionseven]

Not my type. For all the attention though, still working at mcdonalds.

 

[Africanus]

This reminds me of that "Alex from target" wave that occurred last year that saw an increase in female patrons at Target.

People can be socially inept when they see a person they desire.

 

[FTF]

That first picture is pretty creepy/robot/doll looking, but this other pic in the article is less drastic/makes her look more normal/human, etc.

 

[RockTurtle]

Kawaiii!~
