THIS IS HUGE

This blog has just received a shipment of -- get ready -- 24 Brand Energy Gum. Yes. It is made by the manufacturers of Jolt Brand Energy Gum, and its motto is:

Chew More. Do More.

Here's the package:

24_gum

This is bound to become hugely popular with individuals who, for one reason or another, need to stay up.

I am First. But the gum's not gonna be Kosher.

Posted by: Edgar Greenberg | 11:50 AM on March 23, 2007

How many More, exactly?

Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:53 AM on March 23, 2007

Walter looks ready for action!!

Posted by: Siouxie | 11:55 AM on March 23, 2007

I was first.

Posted by: Edgar Greenberg | 11:56 AM on March 23, 2007

Well now that was weird...I posted first, my comment appeared as a solo, and now it's gone. Edgar, do you have some sort of nefarious zapping device to eliminate the competition?

It strengthens teeth and gums so you can bite someone's carotid artery maintain good dental hygiene.

Posted by: Ford79 | 12:00 PM on March 23, 2007

AFKAT - your post disappeared faster than the plotline on '24.'

I, while not FIRST, am certainly the BEST. Neener!

For a 24 gum, the motto should be "Chew More. Shoot More."

As the parent of an often-cranky-until-three-in-the-morning baby, all I will say about that is:

I need that. Now.

"...guarana is taken daily as a health tonic by millions of Brazilians. It is reported to help overcome heat fatigue, detoxify the blood and is useful for flatulence and obesity..."

Perhaps they should be giving this gum to cows...

Hey, I'm not the one whose comment magically appeared above an existing comment. Clearly Mike Green is plotting something.

WWJD?

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 12:17 PM on March 23, 2007

this is great! i can include this in my new diet book "Thin with a Grin" that was brought about by the brainstorming in the "Yesssssssssssss" post from yesterday (and very early this morning). perfect marketing niche. when i make my first million, i'll owe it all to this blog.

Posted by: wickedwitch | 12:21 PM on March 23, 2007

On the downside, all the comments mysteriously disappeared again. On the plus side, FIRST.

Posted by: Edgar Greenberg | 12:22 PM on March 23, 2007

Darnnit, they're back.

Posted by: Edgar Greenberg | 12:23 PM on March 23, 2007

shhh...you are all talking so loud. I am hung over

Posted by: Chaz | 12:23 PM on March 23, 2007

What next? Beer Goggle Bubble Gum? It would go hand in hand with the Jolt.

"...guarana is taken daily as a health tonic by millions of Brazilians. It is reported to help overcome heat fatigue, detoxify the blood and is useful for flatulence and obesity..."

your honesty is overwhelming, mud!

Posted by: wickedwitch | 12:27 PM on March 23, 2007

Walter looks fit, tanned, and ready for action. He just needs a box of contractor-grade condoms and a H-K MP7.

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 12:33 PM on March 23, 2007

and a (female) walrus hooha, Hammie ;-)

Walter's looking a bit smug today...if that's possible...or maybe I should lay off the chocolate easter eggs.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 12:49 PM on March 23, 2007

you can only chew this on mondays

Posted by: Chaz | 12:51 PM on March 23, 2007

as long as it doesn't make me talk like the wooden dialogue generator.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 12:54 PM on March 23, 2007

And here all this time I've been using Pepsi to keep me going for "24" summaries. doh!

Posted by: Chaz | 01:28 PM on March 23, 2007

Looks like Walter has a stick. Of gum, I mean.

Posted by: Beppie | 01:29 PM on March 23, 2007

Apropos of nothing whatsoever: I'm on hold with the local Chevy dealership. They've just offered me the total Hummer experience. Now that's service!

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 01:36 PM on March 23, 2007

Hammond - it's not service yet - remember, she's got you on 'hold.' What a tease.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 01:56 PM on March 23, 2007

Hammie's Hummer on Hold reminds me of this:

The birth of the Hummer

Posted by: Siouxie | 02:11 PM on March 23, 2007

That's Walter?? The dark glasses threw me.

Posted by: Jazzzz | 02:12 PM on March 23, 2007

WARNING: CONTAINS HYOCINE-PENTOTHAL

Posted by: Aaronak | 03:42 PM on March 23, 2007

Dark glasses? Ooops! You are correct. I thought that was a bow tie. Walter getting ready for a night on the town.

Posted by: Jessica R. | 05:26 PM on March 23, 2007

The writers should chew three pieces at a time to stop the plot from flatlining.

Posted by: Cheesewiz | 07:45 PM on March 23, 2007

Funny...I actually saw this in a gas station 2 months ago, and bought it just for the wrapper.

Posted by: MJ | 09:45 PM on March 23, 2007

Aren't you afraid it will keep Walter up all night?

Posted by: Layzeeboy | 11:20 AM on March 24, 2007

I'm a huge 24 fan. I really like your site.

Posted by: Maxwell Smith | 02:26 PM on March 24, 2007

If only the show was a video game where whenever the plot slows or when Aaron and Martha get gooey, we could speed up the storyline by getting all the characters to chew some Jolt gum.

Posted by: Stevie | 11:41 AM on March 26, 2007

Put some 24 gum in Logan's iv drip - that'll keep him from flatlining!

Posted by: Choeing | 11:43 AM on March 26, 2007

What the... dude, is that an Oosik?!
