Most people won't remember it, but in the early 2000's there was a guy who was in a bunch of really popular computer commercials. He had the catchphrase "dude you're getting a dell". His commercials were great and he was funny. He got caught trying to buy weed in Manhattan and his career was immediately over. He went from being a recognizable face and almost breaking into movie roles to being completely unemployable. All over a bag of weed.
