Another Mc-ism

Call it a trend... or Scots/Irish thinking by reporters: adding a "Mc"or "Mac" to a word to connote a tacky or tricked-out version of a certain kind of home. First there were MacMansions. Then, last week, McCondos. Now, in today's Wall Street Journal: "Coming to a subdivision near you: the McLoft. " They're new, rather than old, industrial-style lofts, built not in an urban area but in suburban or rural spots. What next? McBarn?
