official rules

Aside the "force majeure" part, there is one sentence that caught my eyes too. Inside the "Submitted Materials" section it is written the Submitten Material' right are granted to the Sponsor " throughout the universe in perpertuity"


As a reference, the poster contest for I Am Legend (involving Alienware too)the same section reads as "throughout the world in perpuity" which seems more standard. Well unless, Bold Futura got some space stations around the universe that will be revealed after 1-04-08 and they will broadcast there too.

Re: of importance

obviously the framed picture is important (at least stressed)

does it look like a hand holding something? or Frylock?






Maybe I watched that Mr. Sparkle video too many times, but I can't help seeing Homer Simpson's head in that picture now. Above the purple blob, there's a dark blue blob within a lighter blue circle/halo. Doesn't that look like the head of a Matt Groening character (with the big white eyes on the left side of the head/face)?

Playing off the idea that the picture is some cartoon character (and that the dark blue blob is the head), then maybe the light blue halo is a kind of helmet - a glass helmet perhaps? And, the purple is the body. In other words, it's something like a cartoon astronaut - a fat one, in a purple suit, wearing a glass/plastic helmet. He's floating, on his back, with his arms out and feet up, so we can see the soles of his boots. You can see his little hands (white blobs on either side, near the 'helmet'), and the tips of his boots are also white. Finally, a little bit of white in the purple blob could be a kind of belt. The lighter blue thing in the lower right corner could be the planet/moon that he's supposed to be floating over.

Can anyone else see that?

So, why a silly cartoon astronaut? The man in the commercial is twiddling his thumbs and dreaming of doing great things, great adventures, etc. So, he's looking at a cartoon of an astronaut (and, the cartoon is silly and done in garish colors, like the whole commerical). As he idly dreams about this, opportunity walks out the door... enter moose, slusho, etc.

EDIT: By "glass helmet" I mean something like this...

The picture is seemingly prominent, as it appears three times in the commercial.

1) In the original room
2) With the mermaid holding it up, shortly after he rips out the door
3) At the end, with the mermaid holding it up and hitting it with a hammer

I guess I'm not stoned enough to figure out the deep meaning in all this.

It's evident that the monster is a cross between the unknown picture, the middle-aged business man, and the moose.

Man, that was weird. I was watching that Oaty Bar commerical on my laptop in a bar and was about halfway through it when I blacked out. I just came to, and I dunno, but I guess I kicked the living crap out of everyone in the place! Huh. Go figure.

Ape with the cheese flage

Ok, Here is a line of thought...

In the Slusho History Section the fish is thinking about the cheese. In the Commercial the Ape eats the fish and then he is shown at the end waving the cheese flag....

BTW, there is a Hammer Octopus....not that it is relavent...
