I have an alert that I am using this forum to issue, and I would request that you all listen up: It has recently come to the attention of the Squidbag that an insidious invader known as Bacon Man is controlling most, if not all, popular advertising, and encouraging the love and mass consumption of bacon by everyone. He will not cease his evil, greasy agenda until bacon literally pervades every nook and cranny of our society. He is looking to control the world by the force of bacon. He may raise a bacon army, and only by paying attention to other stuff will we be able to resist them. No one is safe.
Now - before you get excited, Max knows that I am writing this, and has requested that I take a moment and let you all in on a little secret - Bacon Man is not real. My son actually winked and touched his nose as we talked about this. He thinks it'll be funny to print up WANTED posters for Bacon Man, too. Bacon Man, as you might expect, was born out of a fairly pedestrian conversation about what was on TV this evening - a Wendy's ad, a pizza commercial, and then a reference to "bringing home the bacon," and we had heard it three times in a row. I said, "What's with all the bacon on television," and the preceding was my son's explanation. If you really examine the drawing, you can see that he is made of bacon, and is controlling a television with his energy waves. Additionally, the drawing is signed by Max, but he has added "not helping" so that none of you will think he is aiding the evil Bacon Man in any way.
This is brilliant, of course. Makes more sense than a lot of the true stuff.
