OH YEAH?

so ive been thinking a while about the kool-aid commercials from the 90's and here are my thoughts.

1. if parents knew that every time that they made kool-aid for their kids that kool-aid man was going to burst through a wall in their house ruining at least one room possibly more, shouldnt it be time to serve a DIFFERENT DRINK. i mean come on. the neighborhood is literally being demolished by drink, oh well, what flavor do you want?

2. was there more than one kool-aid person? i mean if there was one giant animate pitcher of kool-aid how many were there really? was there a whole hidden society? which brings me to my next question.

3. was the kool-aid man anti kool-aid people? here we have a giant animate pitcher of kool-aid encouraging children of all ages to DRINK KOOL-AID? is this sadistic? i mean im not calling him a cannibal, for we never see him drinking kool-aid, but he still wants other people too.

these were the thoughts i had also i thought about the prizes that they listed. you theoretically would collect kool-aid points and then send them in with money to receive prizes. i saw these pages all over comic books and i always wanted that stuff. event though to get the prizes you would not only have to drink a swimming pools worth, but you would also have to bathe in it.

i always wanted the awesome stuff from the kool-aid catalog too. my mom used to save the points, but i guess we never really drank that much kool-aid.

Alisha and I have been saving Kool-Aid points since we were married over three years ago. And we drink more Kool-Aid than the average young married couple. We probably could compete with a two-child household.

Last time I checked the prize items online, we had enough to get about anything we wanted... but there was nothing worth having. We're holding out for a Kool-Aid prize revolution. Maybe they should let you buy a "Kool-Aid Man Krash Experience." That is, they should let you pay them in Kool-Aid points to have a large man in a Kool-Aid costume bust through a wall into your presence at the location of your choosing.

it wouldn't matter what what drink the parents served, something annoying is always gonna happen. Kool-Aid man crashes through your wall, pre-pubescent kids storm your house and refridgerator rejecting every other drink until they find the Sunny Delight, and when Ovaltine is made people scream at you for more.

i do like Chase's idea with the 'Krash Experience.'
