January 31, 2008: "cannibalistic musings"
this pillsbury cinnamon roll commercial has been on lately. and i suppose it's cute and everything because it brings families together through the magic of gastronomy, and it creates the illusion that the mom character can actually cook, but it's ...off. the commercial begins with the doughboy frowning at generic, store brand cinnamon rolls, and then when it catches a whiff of the pillsbury brand, it's all happy and starts giggling.
that's gross. isn't what's cooking in the oven the doughboy's brothers or something? his father? or come on, even if it's a distant cousin - dude's cooking in the oven and you're getting hungry? there's nothing to giggle about here. it's your own flesh, man.
pillsbury doughboy: you make me sick.
(by the way, happy last day of january!)
(and, i found a page where you can make the doughboy dance: isn't it strange the catchphrase is "add a little love," and it really means, "let's add more of my dough family in the oven and then eat them" - but i guess that's too long)

Wow, that's disgusting. I've never viewed it like that...
Pillsbury stuff is awesome, but that commercial is sick. He's a cannibal and I would not want to be a member of his family...

You're are so funny. Pillsbury Doughboy is cute. I never thought about it the way you do. Thanks for opening my mind to the fact that P.D. is a traitor. He should be out there protecting all the other little doughboys.

Never seen this commercial in question, but it does sound a bit odd. :D
Oh and I clicked the link to see how he looks like... He reminds me of Michelin man. :D

aww, Pillsbury doughboy D:<
Did you ever see that website with all the cannibal food mascots? I would like you, but I don't have the link anymore. I always did wonder what would happen to the Kool-Aid man when he poured all his liquid out though... does he die?

Connie.. I have to be honest with you.. this may sound mean, too. However, you suck at updating! =] lol, I still love you very muchly though, mwahahaha.
I haven't gotten to see that commercial yet... I don't really watch a whole lot of television at all except for things like Family Guy and America's Next Top Model.. which is actually getting old cause I've seen them all! That website though... you hoe, I'm on a diet over here!! And you're sitting over there on your end, too far for me to punch, taunting me with those delicious sweets!
Lol <333

uh, hehe, I guess it's a good thing we don't have pillsbury cinnamon rolls here then? :P I have never seen the commercial you're talking about, but from what you say about it I have to agree, especially after reading this horrific article a few days ago about a woman who had to watch her children being cooked alive. I didn't giggle and make myself a snack then either...

Haha, you're funny but right. He's a little doughcanibal. XD I was never much of a fan of the Phillsbury stuff.
[honey.♥] Sunday, February 3rd
LMAO omg that made me laugh......then really think about it. I actually am craving some of his cousins now. ahahaha!
[Kaylee] Sunday, February 3rd
Lmao, I've never thought of it that way before ;P But maybe the pillsburys are a species, not a family!
Anyways, that dancing doughboy thing is too awesome. My favourite move is the hustle :D

True dat. The Pillsbury Dough Boy is appealing to the humans by looking cute so he won't be baked with his brothers. Traitor.

but family or not, pillsbury is still delicious either way.
