In celebration of the fact that the World Economic Forum is opening up in New York City, Let us praise the almighty Dollar (Pound, Euro, Yen, Ningis, etc) by embracing capitalism. So for this comic cup the rules are:

1) Write a commercial to be aired on TV for a product that is something abstract, dangerous, pointless, or just odd.

3) Somewhere in the dialogue, you must include a disclaimer (example: Your Mileage May Vary, etc).

4) An animal must make an appearence somewhere in the strip.

5) Extra points for making baby Jesus cry.

6) There is NO rule number 2.

The contest will go through until Sunday evening. Multiple entries accepted.

Happy stripping

This isn't really an ad for an unusual product, but this CC inspired it, so we'll call it an entry. There were recently some ads over here showing how long it takes a plumber and estate agent to earn enough to buy a Big Mac meal (a few seconds). Strangely enough, they never featured this particular profession:

...Trot and Cap'n Bill were free from anxiety and care. Button-Bright never worried about anything. The Scarecrow, not being able to sleep, looked out of the window and tried to count the stars.

Uh, by the way, I am implying that dcomposed is "xpac".

And I'd agree with Fuzzy, Namgubed's was a stormer!
