Here’s the Lucky Charms box mentioned in Friday’s Shortpacked!. Every time I go to Target, there this is on the endcap, freaking me the Hell out. What is Lucky doing? Why is he laughing maniacally? Why are his fingers grasping the air like he’s Doctor Doom? Why the hell is he lit from below? Okay, yes, we get it, the cereal is so magical that it’s its own light source. But, dude, General Mills, just step back a bit and realize that it makes it look like your cereal mascot is on the strongest fucking drug imaginable. Seriously. He is going to hack me open with a chainsaw. I will die by his hands.
Oh, by the way, today is Maggie’s birthday. Wish her a happy one!
The diabolical trees suggest a Halloween themed box, but that still doesn’t excuse it…or wipe it from the dark corners of my mind.
Yeah it’s totally because it’s for Halloween dude.
I’m sure they were just gonna make him a Mummy or something but then went “Fuck it let’s just give kids nightmares”.
It matches this year’s monster cereals.
Lucky is just sacrifice the cereal to contact Faust to make a deal to get those children to stop chasing him.
No, he just finished grinding them up and using their bones to flavor his cereal…
Happy birthday to Maggie. She get some good presents? (The most important thing).
Yeah, it’s clearly a Halloween themed box, And in it’s defense a “Leprechaun” is an established horror movie monster.
Leprechaun In Da Hood!
And “Lucky Charms” is all off to one side and weirdly shrunken and smeared and tilted. Who designed this thing? I’m gonna have to ask them to turn in their graphic designer membership card…
He does look evil up close, if only his eyebrows were lower.
Happy birthday, Maggie!
Damn it, I see this thing every time I close my eyes.
Unlucky Charms?
Happy Birthday Maggie!
I feel like he should be wearing like half a dozen Green Lantern rings after killing members of the Corps.
Somebody shoop this, stat!
…. that’s one scary rape-face
Contrafibulations Maggie.
I don’t see what everyone problem is, he is just gloating over his new 100% natural femur flavored cereal…
Looks like General Mills decided to make Breakfast Of The Gods canon.
I think whoever designed this box is a real big fan of Wayne’s World.

That box distinctly reminds me of this quote.
Happy birthday, Maggie!
I think I saw that look on an ex-girlfriend once. Just replace the cereal bowl with a pile of my stuff, and you have a winner. Even the glow was there, thanks to the flames!
Happy birthday, Maggie!
Wait, I get Sentinel Prime as an avatar?
Everytime I think of Lucky charms (A cereal we don’t have in my country, because there’s absolutely no justification to sell candy as breakfast.) I think of the qoute from Austin Powers…Now I’ll think of nightmares.
