Paradox....the cornflake competition

Unread post by sallyfox » Sat Aug 07, 2010 3:44 am

I was eating breakfast the other morning and thought, what if paradox was a breakfast cereal?? Then it would be waaaaay easy to write competitions for people that ate em...........

So if people wanna win a toy water pistol ( a great cereal prize), all they have to do is write in 50 words or less is..................... "Why I like paradox the cornflakes for breakfast"

200k for second place, and 50k for any reasonable effort, so its not a case of IF you win, its a case of WHAT you will win........ sounds pretty fair to me! * Note...... Crappy entries get nothing :wink: Entries close on Aug 28....... and is drawn at Z's end of month brithday event party on the 29th of this month......judge is Mrs 0 (dev)

Paradox the Cornflakes is part of a nutritious breakfast, if you add half-a-grapefruit, buttered toast, bacon, eggs, sausage, kippers, tea, milk, canteloupe, leftover pizza, oatmeal, haggis...

Edited to: Paradox the Cornflakes only has fiber in the box, but it's not just for kids, silly rabbit! There are two scoops of ass-face-kick-punch in every box, but the marshmallows will only make you lucky if you survive the day after consumption. Also known to reduce cholesterol and prevent heartbreak.



Paradox the Cornflakes only has fiber in the box, but it's not just for kids, silly rabbit! There are two scoops of ass-face-kick-punch in every box, but the marshmallows will only make you lucky if you survive the day after eating this. Still, this cereal is known to reduce cholesterol and prevent risk for heartbreak. Buy it now, and be as cool as Chuck Norris, or maybe even me!

Edit: (50 words exactly!)
Paradox the Corn Flakes has all the vitamins and nutrients I need to keep me going all day. Although the box claims (or at least used to claim) a newer, healthier version would be available on June 30th, I have faith that the makers will come out with it eventually.



Original:
I can't count to fifty, but Paradox the Corn Flakes has all the vitamins and nutrients I need to keep me going through the day. Even though the box says it will be 100% nutritious by June 30, I'll still eat it.

Paradox Cornflakes is the official breakfast of the Von Noob Jr. Time Shifter League. Whenever I'm going to screw with time I like to have a big bowl of them. With such flavors as Dr Wolf's Furry Fun and Gobberwart's Pumpkin Patch they have a wide variety for everyone.

"Why I like paradox the cornflakes for breakfast"
----------------------------------
Paradoxically, they're made of scintillating bits of joy, happiness and love, with a generous sprinkling of corn now and then. There is no better breakfast in the known universe, or anywhere else! Now how much would you pay? They're worth their weight in Tokens of Appreciation! Buy now!

-Fade in-

Paradox Brand Generic Corn Flakes are now 100% asbestos-free, and contain 50% less radium than the next leading brand! And not only are they now less hazardous than before, but now it comes with something even more important... Marshmallows! Buy a box, and tell everyone you know they're awesome! (50 words!)

-Fade in warning message at bottom of screen-

Warning: Paradox Brand Generic Corn Flakes are not meant for human consumption, and are made for display purposes only. Upon the consumption of Paradox Brand Generic Corn Flakes, Paradox the Company is not responsible for any damages including, but not limited to, loss of kidneys, severe intestinal hemorrhaging, birth defects including, but not limited to, conspicuous lack of lungs, nose, or throat, inability to locate pants after a night of heavy drinking, and a strong craving for oranges.

Do people looooooove Paradox the Cornflakes?

...To the streets!

Sir! Does this question share an answer with "Do you love Paradox the Cornflakes for breakfast more than life?"?

"No! I mean yes! Er... Wait..."

That's right! He wuvs them!

Start everyday with a Paradox (so the rest is simple... relatively)!



Words: Exactly 50! ... I did not like such a low word limit. Had to cut it down painfully much! But there it is.

I like Paradox the Cornflakes for breakfast because it is the only cereal that fills me up physically and mentally. No other cereal gets me thinking about such philosophical things as Schrödinger’s Cat and whether the egg or chicken came first! It is no paradox that I love this cereal!
