Budget Energy

image0231A few days ago I bought this can on my lunchbreak, because I thought you might be interested inĀ  budget energy. Here is my report:

Budget energy costs about one-third as much as regular energy. It is a little flatter, making you burp fewer pink-tasting burps.

It is much more subtle than regular energy. You barely notice it, in fact.

It lacks glamour, as you can already see from the can. No race car drivers are going to have anything to do with budget energy.

This has something to do, I suppose, with budget energy’s departure from the usual “color+animal” naming tradition.

Maybe all the good ones were taken.

“Golden Bat” would be nice, but that’s already a nasty brand of cigarettes in Japan.

Yellow Ferret.

I can imagine the naming meeting.

Budget energy is less for the disco – unless it is a budget disco – than for more philosophical pursuits, such as poisoning slugs.

Budget energy is definitely going to be in the next slug study.
