TV McGruff… McSUCKS!

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on Mon, Mar 3 at 11:53 AM

Excuse me… but who killed McGruff the Crime Prevention Dog and put this ridiculous weird-voiced mutt in his place?

Wait… WHAT?! That didn’t sound anything like McGruff! Besides, just because you can create a CGI McGruff doesn’t mean you should. If they really want to teach kids to be careful while trading stocks (?!), maybe they should hire…

After borrowing this McGruff suit from the Office of Neighborhood Involvement, I spent the better half of a day getting drunk off my ass and walking around the Mercury office with a loaded gun. AND LET ME TELL YOU, not a single employee was even contemplating doing any cyber crime.

So the next time YOU need to teach a kid the difference between right and wrong, don’t waste your time with CGI McGruff— call HUMPY WITH A BEER AND A GUN IN A McGRUFF THE CRIME DOG SUIT! “He takes a bite out crime… and then busts a cap in its ass!”

You realize they're never gonna lend us that suit again now, Steve.
