Congratulations New Kind of Drink!



The infomercial will be broadcast tonight.  It'll consist of two men in shirts with popped collars screaming at each other.

"BRO!" one will shout.

"BRO!" the other will respond.

"SOMETIMES I DON'T FEEL WHOLLY ALIVE!" the first one will elaborate.

"I UNDERSTAND YOUR EXISTENTIAL PROBLEM!" the latter will sympathize.

"WHAT CAN I DO TO ESCAPE THE BLEAKNESS OF REALITY?"

The two of them will turn to the camera for a short beat before holding cans of you up.

"DRINK PISSIN' NEEDLES!" they'll shout in unison.

After their shouted announcement the two of them will pound the cans.  A voice-over will begin fast-talking as they drink deeply of you, taking in your tangy lemon-lime refreshment, your surprisingly crisp carbonation and your not-FDA-approved urinary tract infection causing chemical agent that transforms urination from a normal bodily function to an epic struggle against terrible pain.  As the the voice-over fades the voice will finish its list of effects and side effects, cautiously announcing that:

Pissin' Needles may cause permanent urinary tract damage.  It may not be purchased by minors.  It is not a form of medication and has no ostensible health properties.  Pissin' Needles will not fill the empty void inside your heart.  It will only bring you pain.  Pissin' Needles contains some Aspertame.  Pissin' Needles is available in stores near you.

As he finishes the faces of the men will shift from awkward postured grimaces to collapsing, weepy messes.  These once proud fraternity brothers will lose all traces of their masculine facades.  In their places, you will see two man-children clutching their groins, tears streaming down their faces as they wet themselves, crying out in pain at the act of urination.  They'll want to stop, they'll be trying to stop, but thanks to you, they'll be unable to do so.  Within hours the CIA will order ten thousand cases of you.  Enjoy your furtive rise to prominence before you're banned by the Hague.

Congratulations New Kind of Drink!
