[quote]"The drink's pure. It's your mind that's the problem." That's the tagline employed by British energy drink Pussy in new ads from Beattie McGuinness Bungay. The product is also described as "Cunningly delicious" in the ad below. This is not going anywhere good. Perhaps not surprisingly, Pussy founder Jonnie Shearer says he was inspired originally by Richard Branson's Virgin brand when he came up with the Pussy name almost a decade ago—while languishing in his parents house after graduating from college. "All my friends were working in the City, and I was in my old bedroom, launching a drink called Pussy. They thought I was an idiot." The business has grown, however. A key turning point was when grocery giant Tesco began stocking Pussy (although it censored the name with an asterisk for the first four months). The new campaign is part of Shearer's plan to become "the biggest energy drink brand in the U.K." Maybe, I don't know, a cat video next time?[/quote]

I read that second ad as 'Cummingly Delicious'
Why not just have the tag line as "Canned twat juice," I bet you'd have a million 14 year old school kids buying it and shouting "HUUUR LOOK MATE I'M DRINKING CUNT JUICE AHAHAHA!" at their friends.
They get their energy drinks, the company gets their profits, and I get more targets to hit when I'm driving near schools, everybody's a winner!

Pretty sure they're trying to get your mind to go to "Cunnilingus."
...mine did. :shame:
I don't get it
[B]Edited:[/B] What's a pussy? I should go ask my mom
Every time I hear of this energy drink I can't help but think of this:

They should've just put here's another energy drink that tastes like shit, gulp it up.
It's actually really tasty!
Tastes like Euro shopper one, in other words like piss.
They sell this in my local shop and they've always been strict about selling energy drinks to under sixteens, and there's a sign that says, "Please note we cannot sell Pussy to persons under 16"

Well if it doesn't sell too well as a neckbeards energy drink they can always sell it as a fire retardant.
"The drink is pure, it's your mind that's the problem"
Finally, a 100% truth in advertisement!
I'm going to create a competing energy drink with a rooster as a mascot and it's going to be called Cocks, and the tagline will be "if you think it is a double entendre, you're a shithead."
i wish pussy weren't so hard to come by where i live otherwise i might actually get some
Reminds me of the energy drink cocaine. That shit tasted like cough syrup and felt like you were drinking whiskey.
[QUOTE=Daemon;39268307]i wish pussy weren't so hard to come by where i live otherwise i might actually get some[/QUOTE]
I don't think there's any around here where I live.
Seriously, where's all the damn Pussy? I want to have a taste of it.
[QUOTE=assassin_Raptor;39268355]Reminds me of the energy drink cocaine. That shit tasted like cough syrup and felt like you were drinking whiskey.[/QUOTE]
I remember that stuff. Why would you deliberately make a product that makes it feel like your throat is burning?
[QUOTE=Xenomoose;39268258]"The drink is pure, it's your mind that's the problem"

Nope. The drink isn't pure, it's full of artificial sweetener. :v:
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;39268402]I remember that stuff. Why would you deliberately make a product that makes it feel like your throat is burning?[/QUOTE]
I do not know, I had it 3 times and it never even gave me energy. It tasted like shit and made your throat burn which is not something I look for in an energy drink.
My dad bought this for me once, it's basically every energy drink ever with a slightly different after taste.
[QUOTE=mac338;39268433]Nope. The drink isn't pure, it's full of artificial sweetener. :v:[/QUOTE]
It claims to be natural so it's probably full of sugar, I'm guessing around 30g like most energy drinks that size
imo, it tastes a little different to other energy drinks, but I prefer other energy drinks to this.
HOWEVER, I would recommend this energy drink with vodka, I had it a few nights back and it was surprisingly amazing.
This is worse than those old Bawls energy drinks I use to see.
I only remember them because I when I was far younger, I had a somewhat goofy friend who got in the car on a hot day, only to proclaim to his mother: "Moooomm, my Bawls got all sweaty."
i wish i could get this without ordering it online but the pussy game is rediculous...
[QUOTE]Pussy founder Jonnie Shearer[/QUOTE]
Instantly read that as "Pussy pounder" :v:

I wouldn't waste your money. Imo the only good thing about it is the name and can design.
I tried some on a whim after seeing it in a shop, it tasted pretty disgusting.
"Don't be one, drink one"
I had this a few years ago in switzerland.
it was fruity
Sometimes the cans are printed P***Y, my girlfriends nan bought some at Christmas and thought it was called Party
Apparently the flavour changes once a month
