Monster Energy Drink Sucks
October 19th, 2009
Was having my daily browse of the finer Make Money Online blogs today when I came across a post by Allyn Hane from Blogger Illustrated entitled fuck you monster energy drink. Obviously this caught my attention seeing as it wasn’t quite the story I was expecting to read over my morning porridge.
Now I’m not from the US and up until this point in my life I have never visited that fine land but when I was growing up I had images of America being a land where anyone could take a fair shot at making a good living. All it took was hard work in the land of the free for anyone to be successful.
As I got older I began to realize that this ideal doesn’t quite hold and the story on Allan’s blog today illustrates this point perfectly. Its an unhappy tale of a corporation that produces an energy drink that tastes like rat piss fucking with a small family business illustrates this point perfectly.
So what was the Monster story all about?
Long story short, The Rock Art Brewing Company from Vermont produce a monstrous beer which they call Vermonster. Big nasty corporation which produce a rancid, chemical cocktail called Monster Energy drink take umbrage at the similarity in name and serve a cease and desist letter demanding that the Rock Art Brewing Company stop using the name.
Well, this has gotten a lot of people angry because we don’t like it when big, powerful corporations fuck with the little man who doesn’t have the cash to fight back, especially when their demands are retarded and nonsensical. I mean how the fuck is anyone going to confuse a strong, alcoholic beer called Vermonster with a soft drink called Monster Energy?
Anyways, if you want to find out the full story you might want to head over to the Blogger Illustrated Internet Marketing site to find out what all the fuss is about.
