They don't look like it, but I think they lead the worst lives ever.
They never, ever, ever get what they want.
Lucky Charms Leprechaun: He just wants to be left alone. But those effing kids won't stop chasing him. Really? Leave the poor thing alone to eat his cereal in peace. I don't get how he could still smile after all he's been through. And I don't think I've ever seen him peacefully eat a bite of it yet.
Trix Yogurt Rabbit: Why. Why. Why. Why. Why. Why. This rabbit's life goal is to eat yogurt. And the kids never give it to him. Ever. I would probably kill myself if I spent years and years going after this yogurt only to be taunted by those disgusting kids. "Silly rabbit, trix are for kids!" .... uhh no it isn't. I could go get a pack of trix yogurt and feed it to a dog, no problem. Trix are not just for you filthy children. And the silly rabbit can walk and run on two feet and talk and think somewhat cleverly, he has the same mental or greater mental capacity than those stupid kids and he clearly deserves that yogurt. But it's not entirely at the fault of the kids. The trix rabbit is large enough to easily simply grab the stupid yogurt from them.
Cookie Crisp Wolf: He's one of my least favorite mascots but he still just wants to eat a stinking bowl of cereal and the kids just won't let him. I don't get this.
Why are kids happily depicted as these tormenters of cartoon creatures? You'll notice nobody ever likes the kids. They like the characters. And this is because we are attached to them. We secretly hope that one day they WILL achieve their goal. But...alas...this will likely never happen. Or at least, officially happen.
I've put a frighteningly large amount of thought into these characters over the years. There's plenty more to pick at, too. But those are the three that stick out to me. Hopefully they do get what they want. Until then, I will be eternally frustrated with those stupid commercials.
