Geek Chic

This is the second one of these Kool-Aid Man concept photos I’ve seen.  I love them.

This was the one I saw a few months ago:

Really.  It never gets old.

I only wish I could find a link to the episode of Robot Chicken where the Kool-Aid man is playing baseball.  (Oh No!)

This is completely awesome:

I have to say, though, I love the websites with a big sticker on the front page that say ‘Top Secret’.  Shh… don’t tell anyone else on the internet!

But really.  The best part of it is these guys. Spokespeople for #5. The brains of the operation:

Just becuase it’s so amazing, i’ll provide you with a little excerpt of what you get when you watch the video.  Pure science.

“I’d like to explain how our product works.  The enzymes in our product break down the molecular structure of the fuel.  So if you were to look at gasoline or diesel under a microscope, on a slide, you’d see clusters of molecules.  Much like clusters of grapes.  Our enzymes attack those clusters and break them down into individual molecules, allowing for a more complete burn of the fuel.  So if you’re shooting less out your tailpipe as an emission of our byproduct, you’d go further down the road and your fuel economy would be on the rise.  It’s as simple as that.  Thank you.”

It’s like he learned chemistry from Peter Griffin.

Oh McSweeny’s.  You’re such rascals.

I think it’s more than a little ironic (or perhaps fitting) that for all of my bitching and moaning about the new iPhones and their pricing structure, and my own personal crusade to not — as a current, loyal AT&T customer — pay more for an iPhone than people who aren’t with AT&T… what did I manage to do this morning?

Drop a nice full-weight pint glass full of water square on the screen of my current phone.  To which we say:

Nice one!

I was trying to hold out until October to when I’m eligible for an upgrade phone, so I don’t have to fork out the extra $200.

We’ll see if that works.  Right now my phone’s screen is basically being held together with tape.
