Day 349 - Oatmeal Puppet Guy! - 12/15/2015

Today's Thing-a-Day Thing is this Oatmeal Puppet Guy I just made!

Get ready for fun! I plan to make a whole series of videos about this guy!


Oh, and keep an eye on my cafepress stores! There may be some new merch soon...


Some oatmeal-related merch...

Soon...

For you AVGN/Cinemassacre fans, this is my Giant Claw

You know what I'd like to get my grubby, grabby, midwestern hands on?

That!

I want that puppet from the CoCo Wheats commercial!

Don't remember it? Let's see if I can find it again on youtube...

Found it! But it won't let me embed. Click Here to see the commercial!

I loved/hated this commercial growing up! I was enthralled by, but kind of afraid of the "ugly" CoCo Wheats puppet. I watched the commercial with fear and fascination just waiting for and dreading the moment that the horrible bowl of dark, putrid evil leaped to center screen!

And I wanted it. I wanted to own that horribly ugly puppet. I hoped that it was available as a "special offer", back of the box premium, but no such luck.

I never ate oatmeal or cream of wheat for breakfast, I was more of an open-faced pb and honey sandwitch sort of guy, but I would have gladly choked down several week's worth of slimey, grainy chocolate if it meant that I could send in a few boxtops and a check for shipping and handling to get a bowl of evil puppet! And I would've played with it every day and kept it in a place of honor next to my My Pet Monster. Sigh...

Just look at that thing

(I don't remember where I found this picture. It's been in my photos folder of awesome things for over a year. I got it off of google)


Look at it! It's like a Boglin

(image from wikipedia, through a google search)

I somehow wasn't aware of these growing up, but they go together like a ramma lamma lamma...

I would've been scared of Boglins, too. In fact, I might have been aware of them and so scared that I blocked out the memory.

I still want this silly thing. If anybody knows where it is, please let me know. I would love to own it, or at least see it in person some day.

It's not ugly. It's beautiful!

Some videos of songs I wrote...

A cover of that one song from that one scene in Back to the Future!

A song from my Ponder and Enlightening comic sung by the Claudius puppet!

A new original song about lover or something.

And finally

A song about the Pitch Drop Experiment!

Idearrhea 3!

Here are some more ideas I had to get out of my head. Hopefully someone will do something with them.

1. I work in a preschool so a good portion of my job is wiping noses. When I started working with infants and toddlers I realized that wiping a child's nose is the WORST THING YOU COULD EVER, EVER DO to a child. At least, that's what the children keep telling me as I try to wipe their noses.

I also noticed that children don't mind when you grab their face with a puppet, pretending the puppet is eating their face.

I put the two together in my mind and came up with the idea of a puppet you could use specifically to wipe noses. You pretend the puppet is eating, or "noming", their face and wipe their nose in the process. The mouth would hold onto a tissue, and the puppet would be washable.

I tested my idea with Peepers Puppets:

That worked pretty well. I'd like someone to make a puppet specifically for wiping noses. I don't know if it would work or how long it would work. But I think it is worth a try.


2. This last week was Dr. Seuss's birthday. I think a place that makes slippers should make slippers that look like the socks from Fox in Socks.

They look comfy as all getout and I would totally buy a pair.

3. Finally I have an idea for a commercial compaign for a certain sandwich chain. Many years ago they had a terrible commercial that involved one of their people who make sandwiches dancing as a rap song played about their new wrap sandwiches. I thought it was one of the worst commercials I'd ever seen. My friend Chris Hockley agreed with me and told me about his idea for a good sandwich commercial. Today I made that commercial:

My idea is that this specific sandwich chain could ask for people to make and send in commercials for them to use instead of their not good commercials (only one of their "funny" commercials has ever made me laugh, and I only laughed the first time I saw it). This would be much like what Doritos has done in the past. People could send them in via youtube or another video site.

Or they could set up a neutral background in each sandwich shop with a video camera that would link to a specific site and they could send in their commercials that way.

I don't know if they would want to do this, how much it would actually cost, etc. But I do know that it would result in better commercials than whatever they currently use.

That's it for now! More ideas as soon as I think of them.

Can't Wait to Get a Mouthful!
