First of all, filthy rat dogs don't belong in a restaurant. Second, most people do not realize these animals were originally bred in mexico as food items!! Eeeeewwww, gross. Thanx again.

I totally always thought lucky charms contained LSD & represented some supersecret CIA or other black ops encrypted symbolic message when submerged in my breakfast bowl. But man, you got it right about baking the hell out of dumbass little pillsburu doughboy -- come on, he's just asking for it! Ps: what about quisp, quake, count freaking chocula fey frankenberry (not that there's anything wrong with that, but come on...and lameass booberry. Don't even get me started on those loathsome fruit of the loom underwear freaks -- they really creep me out!! Thanx.

The dog didn't die. It ultimately was a failure as a marketing campaign. Gidget, the dog actor, was still alive as of 2003 and acting in movies. http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/tv/tacobell.asp Sigh.

Back when his character was first created, he was the victim. The "random" guy would steal his Hawaiian Punch from him and he would get his revenge on him with the "how would you like a nice Hawaiian Punch?" line and sock the MFer who jacked his drink. In recent years, it was shortened to just the shot of Punchy punching random guy, confusing a whole generation of people who wondered why he was "such a jerk". Just thought I'd share. Surf Wisely.
