Round 3 Match 2: Potpourri Division
 |  |  |
Battle of the Crimson Warriors!
The hero of game show addicts everywhere faces the "face" of soft drinks. The Whammy has already taken out two food-related icons, but the Kool-Aid Man is pretty ubiquitous in pop culture. I saw a 2 year old at a Day Care today wearing a shirt with the Kool-Aid smile on it. And let me tell you, he looked pretty cool. But would he have been cooler if it had said, "Big bucks, no Whammies!"? You decide!

well, due to a frantic last week on the job before i head to the new job in the big smoke, i was not able to vote in the last round.
i have this week off, so let the voting begin. and i will begin by voting AGAINST the Kool-Aid Man. selling sugary drinks to children who don't need them for generations makes him way to ubiquitous to be ironic. the Whammy has to win this round.

I just finished a jug of sugar-free orange KoolAid and am feeling the love for the man that brings that refreshing treat!
KoolAid KoolAid tastes great! Ohhhh Yeahhhh.

I must point out that Kool-Aid doesn't sell sugary anything - that person mixing it decides whether to make it sugary or not. Granted, it's not fruit juice, but neither is the whammy.
Still, I think the acid test is which is ironic enough to wear on a T-shirt, but still cool enough that I'd wear it, and I'll take the whammy for this.

The Whammy is an ugly icon. An older Kool-Aid Man (his original Uber self, prior to the Jonestown disgrace) is perhaps the t-shirt we should be imagining.
"OH Kool-Aid Man!"
It was just so much funnier to see him smashing through walls. Why doesn't he do that now? Make a series of commericials where he basically barrels his way through other product endorsements (stealing the thunder the Energizer Bunny left under the car seat).
Onward and upward!

Over so many years, my personal quest for kool has been aided by the lumbering pitcher who manages to bring flavourful delight to people everywhere.
The Whammy? A brutish beast that delights in the misfortune of others, calling attention to the sorry plight of the afflicted. The Nelson Munz of the gameshow world ... that's almost enough to sway my vote.
But my vote remains with the Kool-Aid Man. (Now if it was Nelson versus the K-A Man, that'd be a different story, HA-ha).

Well they say sugar may enhance the effects of A.D.D.
Where was I? Oh yeah - and obesity is going to kill off all of North America.
Gambling only kills those who lose.
And every gambler knows that the secret to survival is knowing what to throw away and knowing what to keep...
Sorry about that; lost my concentration there. If you gamble or need something to happen, you want to yell "No Whammies!" It really does help.
Oh look, a shiny penny...
