4. Dude, you lost your Dell job due to pot?

I seem to recall reading he got busted for the weed

[Richardo]

5. He ate a bunch of Pop Rocks and a six pack of Coke and exploded.

That's what I heard!

6. I removed his feeding tube.

It was the humane thing to do.

7. Dude! you're going to JAIL!

And I just KNOW that one dude's mom wanted him something terrible...

8. Ashton Kutcher stole his thunder as the loveable stoner du jour

9. He was fired for using Marijuana

Which is bad enough according to Dell Computers, but it's even worse because...

It's a Gateway drug!

Bah-dah-dum!

THANK YOU!

13. Well, he was, it just wasn't the reason he is no longer in the commercials

[mcscajun]

15. I stand corrected.

Not Fired for Pot. :)

[SlavesandBulldozers]

18. Exactly

the Dell ads featuring the Dell dude were discontinued, iirc, before the inevitable backlash to his popularity occurred. Quite a shrewd marketing move.

Then he got busted a little later

14. He's the gay lover of Mikey from the Life cereal commercials.

They live together and sell Ecxtasy from a trailer park in Phoenix.

[Richard Steele]

17. Dude, that's just creepy!

I mean, Mikey's gotta be 30 years older than him!

[maveric]

19. Its gotta be true. I heard it on the Trolley this morning.

[Sugar Smack]

16. I had to rearrange his fucking eyebrows for him-

I couldn't take another minute of it!!!!!!
