masterblaster72 0 #1 October 25, 2006 A drink with a suggestive name and provocative branding draws the wrath of young shoppers' parents. QuoteCocaine comes in red cans, with the name spelled out in what are meant to resemble lines of white powder. Petty stuff like this makes me wonder -- why is there no outrage from pro-family groups over viagra/cialis/levitra commercials shown ad-nauseum on the television? I figure that would be more offensive to parents than a drink in a store, no? Plus, I don't see how the name of a drink could encourage kids to try the illegal drug -- I think most kids are smarter than that. After all, I ate candy cigarettes when I was a kid but that certainly didn't lead me to start smoking. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
