Anyhow, I was shocked when they arrived. The 12-pack came in what seemed to be a 12-pack of energy drinks. The cans were even the right size, but when I opened my first can, out comes a pop, a lollipop! Now, who ever heard of an energy lollipop? I thought “pop” just meant “soda pop” like how all those weird people call soda.

MAXXED is the first of its kind. It is an alternative energy source which combines all the benefits of traditional energy drinks but in an innovative lollipop form. Infused with a unique blend of Ginseng, Guarana, Taurine and B-vitamins, MAXXED is a convenient go anywhere product that helps you to maintain alertness and reduce fatigue.

So pretty much MAXXED is made with energy. Yeah, after reading the list of ingredients, I wondered how on earth that huge lollipop could stay together.

For the lollipop itself, it sure tastes good and lasts forever! Maybe I just really like candy, but that was yummy. My only complaint was that it hurt the roof of my mouth, because of the roughness of the candy. Also, after eating just a couple of those I stayed up for two days straight. In fact, over the past week I only slept about 16 hours. That just shows you how effective those things are. To conclude, buy them for taste, buy them for energy, but do not eat more than three in one go. Good luck with finals!

Reason number 1: You can fit it in a manila envelope.

This is the best only selling point of the product. Well, quite frankly, it sucks.

This is the original Apple MacBook Air 30-second ad spot:

Reason number 2: It costs as much as my ten-year-old Jeep Cherokee.

I know I paid $300 for my iPod, but come on Apple!

Parody:

Reason number 3: The old MacBook, the regular one without any Air, also fits in a manila folder.

“Man, we should have tested that out guys.” -Steve Jobs

Parody with awesome music:

Reason number 4: It doesn’t even come with a CD drive!

The MacBook Air does not come with anything but the bare essentials. Be prepared to buy all that other “unneeded” stuff separately. Call me old fashioned, but I kind of need a CD drive on the computers I use. At least I got rid of my floppy already.

Parody:

Reason number 5: It doesn’t even come with a manila folder.

I don’t even have manila folders to put a MacBook Air in. I guess I will have to go buy some of those separately as well.

Parody:

P.S.: That song sure does get annoying, huh? Well tell me what you think about the MacBook Air in the comments bellow.

She looked at me and said, “I thought we were on the gold standard.”

Well, we are not. The following short video explains the basics of the gold standard and compares it to the modern system ruled by the federal reserve.

Let us know: Are you pro or con the gold standard? Explain why.

“But what about all the college ads I see on TV?”

Well the following would be a more accurate representation of those schools:

P.S. If you go to a school that actually has commercials, I mean no offense, but you have got to see at least some truth in this…

I go to one of the largest universities in the U.S. and am sure that only a minority of my professors know who I am. Noteworthy, however, is that I always seem to get better grades in the classes which professors know my name.

Moral of the story: Unless you are going to try to attempt what was done in the video, make friends with your professors because you will get a higher grade.
