When I was a kid, the cereal isle was one of my favorite isles in a grocery store. There were all kinds of weird cartoon characters on the boxes, each designed to capture my attention and get me to consume it's sugary contents.

     CC 465 will be set in a boardroom at an evil multi-national cereal company, where the board members will be pitching ideas for fiendish new cartoon characters to brainwash kids into eating your lead-laden cereal(made in china of course) and discussing the logic and psychology behind the devious new characters.

     I'll judge this around the middle of December. And.....Go!

the prize at the bottom of the box is herpes by JoeReichenbock 11-30-10

okay boys, sugary cereal profits are down. we need something catchy, something that will stick, that will make little girls and boys scream. how bout a new cereal mascot? a grotesque form of a human being? this mascot got a name? deathtoradio. i meant "catchy", "sticky", and "makes kids scream" in a totally different way.

Part of a Nutritious Breakfast by four_legged_tripod 11-30-10

The problem with kids' cereal is that kids are too mature. We need a more mature spokes person like a dirty stripper or something instead of a stupid toucan. Bullshit! The problem with kids is that they know we're lying. If there's a tiger on the front of the box, there'd better be dehydrated tiger meat in the box! Good point Johnson. I'm putting you in charge of this operation! Hey, Pop! Have you seen Crackle anywhere?

Hey... What... Maybe, we could put a picture of those two on the box of our new cereal for kids! ...the... (Needless to say, Melvin didn't think a picture of a german shepherd butt-fucking a siamese cat on a cereal box for kids was a good idea...) ...FUCK??

Maybe we make cereal with little Irish dwarfs? You mean Leprechauns? "Lucky Charms" already used them. What do convicts with a skin disease got to do with making cereal? Not leper cons, you idiot..."Leprechauns"! Ah so, so sorry! Hey, it wasn't bad for a chink.

I'm thinking this a new era. I'm thinking 'CHOCOLATE SNOWFLAKES'. They come from the asshole of a giant chocolate snowman. Does he live in a big brown cloud up in the sky, and when he farts, it's the thunder? Well... not exactly. Actually he lives on top of Mt. Everest, and he never farts at all. How... pray tell, does a giant chocolate snowman get on top of Mt. Everest? Furthermore, how does he shit snowflakes without ever farting?

So, are you gonna' pitch his idea to the CEO? Yes, but after I've touched it up so that it's presentable. Here it is boss! A giant chocolate snowman lives on top of Mt. Everest. He shits 'CHOCOLATE SNOWFLAKES' out his ass, and he never ever farts! He shits but never farts?!! Jesus Christ man, get real! Tell me what the flakes are made out of. Food color and sugar sir! Well BRAVO!!! At least you got that right!

Yessir, food color and sugar... the kids'll eat it up. Just hold on a minute, there's a few problems here. The first is that there's no such thing as brown food coloring. That's right sir, I should've said chocolate covered sugar. No... too expensive! No chocolate! Dirt? Now you're talkin'!

Bitch Smacks 1 by AngryAmerican 12-01-10

I can't believe this fucking cereal. Its like 30% meth-amphetamine. Who the hell are we marketing it to anyway? What's our demographic? Disenfranchised young black males. While only 3.9% of the possible consumer base, they eat 43% of the cereal sold in the US. Fuck. So whatya got? BITCH SMACKS!! Dey'rrrrrrre PHAT!

Bitch Smacks 2 by AngryAmerican 12-01-10

I like it. OK, get those 2 young rapper brothers. You know, the black kids that wore they're pants backwards? You mean Kriss Kross? That was like 20 years ago. That's them. The black Jonas Brothers. Get em. Black kids'll love em. Where are they? One overdosed on crack and the other had his face blown off by a 12 gauge in a failed robbery attempt. All right, fuck that. Get me Gary Coleman! Maybe watch some news Melvin. He spontaneously combusted about a year ago.

Bitch Smacks 3 by AngryAmerican 12-01-10

OK. Fuck that. We get some muscular, towering buck to yell at the... No way man. That will just remind them of the Dad that beat them or the one they never knew. They'll want to cap the cereal, not eat it! Fuck! Shit! The board wants something to work with by 10! Arrrgh! WHAT ABOUT RICK JAMES?EVERYBODYLOVESRICKJAMES! Dear God! Help me man! DEAR GOD MAN!

Oh me oh my! Isn't 'Cereal Unusually Nutritious & Tasty' perhaps a little too 'come hitherish' of a name? You do want people to buy it, don't you? Indeed I do Jennifer, indeed I do. I've taken the liberty of preparing some samples in my own kitchen. I was up so late... moaning and groaning to finish it off. Would you like to see a sample... sir? Please... feel free to show me the whole box!

Well Jennifer, you have a lot of initiative! Perhaps we could retire to my office and you could show me your 'cereal sampling box'. You say you made these by hand eh? Yes, but it really took both my hands, and my biggest rolling pin. It took me so long... I had to replace the batteries. Now... where were we? Oh yes, your battery powered rolling pin. *Ahem*... back to the cereal. What shape will the cereal be, and what flavor have you in mind? The cereal will be in the form of 'little lips', and it will be oh so sugary sweet... Yes, go on! ... with just a hint of yeast.

OOOhhh, this cereal is fine! *munch munch*, and just the right proportion of yeast! Oh, and I think I detect a hint of poo... Back off big boy, that's not part of the cereal. I think we're done now. Please... can't I have just a little more? Yes you can in just a little while. But you need to get ready because we're going now. Where are we goin'? I thought we'd just make a quick trip to the slaughter-house.

CC465: Chen Works For Kellogg's And He Pisses Off The Owner by ZMannZilla 12-03-10

Look, Mr. Kellogg, I just watched my entire family die while you were killing them with brown sugar and fire. I have nothing left to live for. Cut the crap and just kill me please. Oh, no Chen. I'm going to savor this. Take my tiiiiime with it. You done stepped on Batman's cape, you pathetic, sniveling womb turd. Now, you watch, as I fill all these cereal boxes with what's left of your family. America's about to enjoy a whole new breakfast sensation. Then, I'm going to eat it in front of you while you starve. By the end, you'll be begging me, pleading, for just one delicious spoonful of your own kin. And after the realization of what you've done kicks in, perhaps then you will beg for death properly. It's "Superman's" cape, actually Damn right it is. Don't fuck with The Kellogg.

It appears they only spoke enough English to understand the phrase "put a bear on it somewhere" from your instructions.

CC 465: Brings out your pest in the morning - 1 by lukket 12-05-10

I've been thinking about the new cereal product branding thing. You know who's crazy about cereals? Um. Nobody, unless you sugar coat it. Come on. Mealworms eat all kinds of cereals, and it's really a good metaphor as well. Stop right there. Isn't that the small worms with black heads that live from flour, cereals and stuff and are really gross and hard to get rid of? Well, but it's still a good metaphor for kids. They are a pain to begin with and then they turn into these beautiful butterflies. They turn into weird moths, Chen, it will never work.

CC 465: Brings out your pest in the morning - 2 by lukket 12-05-10

So. As you see, we need something that kids can relate to, so the size will be crucial. Yeah. It makes sense. Also it has to be a creature that likes cereals. Tigers don't just do that. You're on the track, so I suggest this! Wow. It's so much better than my mealworm idea. Thank's to all new power-oat-dent, I can outrun the cat! And the packing tastes good as well!

CC 465: THE THOUGHTS OF WILLIAM~1 by bigworm 12-07-10

Good morning everyone. This is William. William is a brilliant thinker, though lately he has fallen on hard times. Give 'em your thoughts on cereal William. Basically, children want sugar. Put sugar in the name, and sugar in the product. Name it something like 'Cotton Candy Puffs'. The 'puffs' would be different colors, and a certain percentage of each color would be designed to dissolve quickly, causing the child to want more cereal poured into their bowl. You'll have 'C.C. Puffs' for girls, and 'C.C. Puffs' for boys, making it neccessary for parents to purchase more boxes of cereal, and giving the kids a basis for expressing smugness to one another. The quickly dissolving 'puffs' will super-saturate the cereal milk with sugar, causing the child to ravenously gulp, guzzle, lick, slurp, and suck down every last freaking drop... in the bowl that is. Thus, pleasing the mothers by getting the child to drink their milk, as well as *ahem*... preparing the child for adulthood.

CC 465: THE THOUGHTS OF WILLIAM~2 by bigworm 12-07-10

I'm liking it William! Please... continue on. So, to summarize... ... we have kids eating much more cereal, eating much more sugar, drinking much more milk, and thus becoming much more congested. This leads to a whole new branch... ... pharmaceuticals. There's a virtual fortune to be made in 'child decongestants', if you don't have millions of congested children, C.C. Puffs and milk will give us millions of congested children. You'll market the decongestant first, so that the link to the cereal is less obvious. If the link is seen and blown up, you simply blame the dairy industry. C.C. Puffs remains pristine. Sirs, the future of our world ie. the children, is already in jeopardy. If we swap it for the dollar, we can purchase them and ourselves a glorious NEW future, where lots more kids play in the park!
