No, not the Mexican state. That little rat dog. Am I the only one who is sick and fucking tired of seeing that little rodent hawking Taco Bell products every 15 minutes? The chihuahua was orginally bred for food, ironic, no? * * * “Some people are worried about the difference between right and wrong. I’m worried about the difference between wrong and fun.” ~P.J.

No kidding, it was funny the first 1000 times I saw the damn dog. ---

We have common foes, Unc. Mightn’t we also destroy EVERY SINGLE FUCKING PERSON on those vapid Old Navy commercials? * * * “Bodie, I noticed you stopped stuttering.” “I’ve been giving myself shock treatments.” “Up the voltage.” -_Real Genius_ ---

Do I hear a call to NUKE Old Navy. Anything I can do to help? Need some one to carry the bomb? Set the timer? Stand around and cheer? Keep me informed on your plans. Peace t lion * * * * * * " I Wonder What Happens When I push THIS Button? " * * * ---

I hate the dog, but, hey…he’s only a dog. Now the Old Navy jerk-offs? They need to die. And soon. And a couple dance lessons before couldn’t hurt. ---

That dog would taste better than the “food” Taco Bell serves. That said, the dog should die… * * * Yer pal, Satan ---

If only that would solve the problem. I don’t have cable either. These commercials are running rampant on network broadcast television. I guess it’s time to unplug the damn thing. * * * “Some people are worried about the difference between right and wrong. I’m worried about the difference between wrong and fun.” ~P.J. O’Rourke~ ---

OK, the taco bell “dog” is more than annoying… he’s CREEPY. If one of those commercials comes on, I have to turn the channel. If I can’t turn the channel, I have to leave the room. One of my former roommates thought it was “cute” and would watch them all while I hid in my room in the fetal position. ---

Valerie - I’m guessing that if you saw MarkSerlin walking a Chihuahua in a dark alley, it would pretty much do you in? ---

I was going to try to think of a witty comeback, but I’m having enough trouble typing while curled up in a ball and rocking back and forth. I wonder how many years of therapy I’m going to need to get over the damage from that visual? ---

I’ve never minded the Taco Bell Chihuahua, but I’ve always, always, ALWAYS hated the Pillsbury Doughboy. I don’t know what it is about li’l Poppin’ Fresh that gives me the screaming abdabs, but he does. I vote that we put him in the microwave on high. “Hmm-hmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaiiiggghhhh!

Hehe…hehe…kill the dog…yes master…kill the dog… Oops. Sorry. Got a little too wrapped up in that sick fantasy. Anyway, yeah, the dog needs to go. I liked the “heeeeere lizard lizard lizard” one, but that’s it. Time now to pack it in. How about I tie him to my cat, and throw them over my rearview mirror like fuzzy dice? My cat is about useless too. ---

I remember MAD Magazine had an article about product mascots. In the article they had an X-ray of Joe Camel’s blackened chest, and an X-ray of the Doughboy, with all his ribs fractured from being poked so goddamn many times.
