Korean M&Ms May Be Racist

"...which is why you should never actually lick a nuclear fuel rod," said Chief Engineer Akmar Hurreisaba.

In other news, it was reported today by our Legospaceman affiliate in Seoul, South Korea (the Korea with all the artillery weapons aimed at it by the evil crazy guy in the north), that the popular brand of candy, M&M's, which is owned by Mars, Incorporated, may actually be racist. With this story is the legospaceman.

Legospaceman: Yeah, Bunny, it's true. This reporter was analyzing a package of peanut M&Ms purchased in South Korea for...um...quality purposes, when he discovered that the picture on the front of the bag shows five happy M&M characters lounging around together. What wasn't realized, until a second look, was that there are six M&M characters, and one of them was missing. It turns out that M&Ms "forgot" to include the brown M&M character.

Now, while this could have been a simple mistake, or perhaps a casting problem during the shooting of the picture, such as a situation where the brown M&M failed to show up for the photograph, we then started examining the other different bags of M&Ms to determine how frequent the brown M&M was missing. It turns out that on all other bags of M&Ms in this particular convenient store in Seoul, South Korea, the brown M&M is not included on the package. But wait until you find out what we discovered when we opened the package."

Bunny Anchorwoman: We will return to this story after this message about how much better Reese's Pieces are than M&Ms candies.

(small pause for a commercial break where capitalist scum try to sell things to you)

Bunny Anchorwoman: And we're back. It turns out that the legospaceman uncoverered more interesting details.

Legospaceman: Yes, Bunny, I did a check of the M&Ms website, and it turns out that even though there is a brown M&M in the packages, the official website no longer acknowledges that this brown M&M exists. Something is seriously wrong here, and we're only beginning to uncover the mystery behind this obvious cover-up.

Realizing that just checking web sites was not going to be enough, we sent in our undercover reporter and we managed to meet up with a well known person named...well, Bob. Here's a picture of him.

Yes, it turns out that Bob was the original brown M&M, and he wants his story known.

This is not all, but the legospaceman also did a quantified study of the bag of peanut M&Ms he bought and discovered that brown M&Ms make up 32% of the entire bag, even though the bag includes representatives of 6 different colors of M&Ms. We will bring you more on this story as it develops. Back to you, Bunny.

Bunny Anchorwoman: Thank you, legospaceman. Let's hope Bob gets what's coming to him. No one should ever have to go through that sort of thing. Now, in fashion news, it appears that attractive women are starting to get all the attention again. With this story is....[/img]

I liked it. Especially as I went to Butterfingers on Easter Sunday and some of the waiters were dressed in bunny costumes. What a day to leave my camera at home....
