LOL! That's a funny commercial. And the boy's delivery of, "It means I lost," is excellent. When I was in elementary school, out science fairs were jokes. Basically we set them up on tables and went back to class. Later in the day, the classes would walk single file past all the tables, not stopping long enough to read anything, and we'd see what we won, if anything. Whoever placed blue would demonstrate at the awards ceremony, which took place in the evening a few days later, and since it wasn't at the school, not many people went. I insisted, though my parents didn't want to go. They said it was rigged. But my dad took me anyway. And I learned they were right. The blue-ribbon winner ended up not knowing anything about the camera he supposedly built. He didn't even know how to use it! It turns out his dad built it, "with Ben's help," and still got to keep the ribbon, and the prize money, because "helping" your dad counted.
I usually shredded those green ribbons by finding the string that would unravel the whole thing and pulling until it was a pile of worthless thread.
