Oh and just to let you know how much blog world has affected my mind. When I first read it, I thought it said "Sorry your box is not a wienner." I think I have to blame that one on mrtl. But my brain has been affected. :)
That's not very nice of Special K to tell you that. :o/ What does a cereal manufacterer know about *that*? Oh, yeah...Kellogg's corn flakes were invented by Dr. Kellogg, who thought the crispy corn concoction would make people less sexually active, therefore getting rid of all sexually contacted diseases. Or something to that effect. I'm not making this mess up. Seriously! :oD
Nina, I laughed the first time I saw that line. I've been planning to post that for a few weeks. You're right, there's nothing like inappropriate consolation. ;-)
The blog world is responsible for a lot of stuff. Reading things wrong is just one. And if my box is a wienner then does that make me a hermaphrodite?
M_D, yeah, I've heard about good ol' Dr Kellogg. I'm pretty sure he believed in bowel movements being extremely beneficial to ones health. But, sorry Dr K, I haven't noticed cereal making me any less active. tee hee
Ern, all right! Bucky gets that comment a lot. I rarely do. Thanks!
Kylz, absolutely! On both counts!
tshsmom, and who are they to judge us anyway? I don't take well to rejection either. ;-)
Susie, you're right. My box's reputation now needs restoring.
Bucky to the rescue!
Jim, thanks for the support. Yes, in Ichabod's eyes my box is always a winner. :-)
Eclectic, I told him we needed one and he just looked at me and silently nodded. I translated that as, "Yes, your box is a winner, but I'm not writing any letter."

hmmmm... well, the phrasing _could_ be worse. It could say
Sorry, *your* box is not a winner.
I'm sure Ichy can console you appropriately. ;-)
Good point, Danielle. I shall tell Ichabod that he needs to console me, um, appropriately. :-)
Nothin' appropriate about it.
Bucky, the box sentence is inappropriate or the consolation??? Cause maybe inappropriate consolation would be more fun. :-)
Only kind worth your while...
Excellent point, Bucky! Thanks!
And just how do they know so much about your box, anyway?
I'm not sure. I must not have checked on a privacy policy somewhere along the line...
ROFL, okay they shouldn't know about your box, and inappropriate consolation would be more fun, there is no doubt about it.
So have fun . . .

Haha, that made me snort!
Pepsi boxes say this too. That's why I buy the 2 liter bottles. I can't stand my box being rejected! ;)
I see the need for the photo-shopping sister to come to the rescue, here, and restore your box's reputation, Squirl ;)
Let me see what I can do, Susie.
Some of us guys were insulted too.
But I'm sure Ichabod thinks your box is a winner - and that's REALLY what matters.

Nothing like sloppy Photoshop to buoy one's self esteem.
Tell your box to get down with its bad self.
Amen, Sister Bucky!
Chia, so sorry to render you speechless. Bucky just had her WonderPhotoshop powers going.
I guess this is one reason I won't eat cereal. I don't need comments about my box!
I finally got an appropriate word verification:
"nextz"!
Sierrabella, there's nothing like being insulted by cereal. And your word verification really is perfect. On the other hand, mine is not.

Yay! Now THA'S what I'm talkin' about :)
Thanks, Susie, for getting our little sister on the job here. :-)
mooer - I feel like I'm at Rent!
Moo with me.
I thought that one might get you, Bucky. :-)
Sucky packaging does have a way of bringing one's mood down.
So true, Mr B! Where's the YPS Gnome when you really need him?
According to Bone Machine, he's off doing some missionary work. But I ain't buyin' it myself.
Mr B, missionary work, huh? Not sure I buy it either. We need him back here working on our packaging needs.
Chia, but he might be checking out some loser's box. You know, to check for sucky packaging.
Ok, I am giggling now... because I am 12. Teehee Teehee
Nice Box :)
Although I have no personal experience with your box, Squirl, I'm sure it IS a winner.
And Bucky totally rocks the PhotoShop.
August, thanks! It certainly made me giggle. :-)
Ladybug, thank you for the compliment. And Bucky sure does, doesn't she.
I think you should post a letter of reference from Ichabod, y'know, just to settle the matter once and for all.
Just sayin'.
;)
Box, box is goooood.
- Ichabod
Eclectic, I told him we needed one and he just looked at me and silently nodded. I translated that as, "Yes, your box is a winner, but I'm not writing any letter."
Thanks for askin'
Wait, we've got a faux Ichabod on here. Who is dat?
Just cracking up here. Nothing to say.
Um do you really want me to comment on your winning box? Because I will, but do you really want ME to get started?
Oh, come on, Jess - don't get coy on us now!
Let us hear all praise of the box.
Kranki, I'm always happy to be able to crack up a fellow blogger!
Jess, I know better than to dare you. You'd jump at a dare. :-)
Bucky, yes, praise the box.
lixnotz
Need more be said?
Bone, hookers and crack cocaine. What're you guys gonna do with that that little dude?
