Golden Grahams Knows About Unemployment

Alright, follow me on this one…

Golden Grahams — yes, the cereal — has started their Golden Grant program at GoldenGrant.com.

The idea is — and pay close attention because this is TOTALLY LOGICAL — that it's hard to find a job in these tough economic times, so Golden Grahams is giving you the opportunity to win 12 free boxes of Golden Grahams — since you "can't succeed on an empty stomach" — if you share with them your "ridiculous job search story," which, by the way, they might animate into viral videos "so that other jobseekers can laugh along too."

Yikes.  Apparently, the stoners who eat Golden Grahams actually work for Golden Grahams.

Though I guess there is some inherent rationale to this whole mess.  The kind of people who can't handle getting a job probably are the same kind of people who would prefer to watch goofy animated videos online all day.

And if you are watching animated videos all day, you probably have a child-like mind-state, whereby regularly consuming Golden Grahams is a perfectly logical meal choice.

And awarding these people 12 boxes of Golden Grahams as a prize creates a "feedback loop" whereby these unemployable loons never fully progress to adulthood, allowing them to create more job search fail stories for Golden Grahams to animate, keeping these Golden Graham eaters watching online videos, assuring that they will be brainwashed into eating more Golden Grahams.

It's so stupid it just might work!

But seriously, Golden Grahams, you can't get away with calling 12 boxes of cereal a "grant."  That's just insane.
