While I must admire your cunning plan, I think that Kellogg's actual response ("<strike>go fuck yourself</strike>"" bless your heart") is nearly as effective, and less complex.

I like the way you think.

Which should be, I suppose, scary to my neighbors.

Hahahahaha, that is corporate-speak for “well bless your heart,” which is southern lady for “fuck you in the ass face down on a gravel road,” which is southern man for “Well, fine fellow, I must civilly disagree!”

Who knew that our Editrix was such a cunning linguist?

I thought the message of that ad was "drinking tequila will turn you into an asshole who sits around complaining about the state of the advertising business."

Not sure what robot dogs racing has to do with vodka, either.

I found out just last week how much Cracklin' Oat Bran you can eat before your butt hurts.

This is the problem with religions: since they're based on 'faith' the adherents are free to make up whatever they think their deity would desire. You can be a liberal, easy-going United Methodist, a pacifist, activist Quaker, a money-oriented Episcopalian, or a completely insane fundamentalist (Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Jewish, etc.) who believes everyone else in their religion as well as other ones is hell-bound heretical trash.

Strangely, I can't remember ever seeing any commercials for breakfast cereal during the Daily Show. Lots of booze ads, though.

I don't get it. Bill Donohue would seem to have an Irish name. But he seems so ... delicate; such a sad, helpless victim on so many things. Not like <a href="http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\?v=db-zYp5_uDU" target="_blank">this</a>. But that was a different era.

"In other words," no decent person could mistake that coarse sentiment.

Or fail to notice that a slight against Donohue is obviously aimed at all Christians. Because he's such a humble embodiment of Jesus' teachings.

It's a wonder lightning hasn't come down and flash-fried his ass.
