umm.... I don't really know what to say, kind of looks like a fun drink though. I thought beer tasted bad but apparently those kids thought it was tasty, or so it seemed. I guess they are probably "REAL MEN".

 

[Druckles]

Ahaha!

I thought alchopops was basically beer for children

 

[Ennui]

That doesn't sound or look remotely appetizing.

 

[Pulse]

Non-alcoholic... what's the point? Give 'em shandies, they'll taste a lot better and they have a minute alcohol percentage; will give their livers a taste of what's to come in around a decade or so

Someone should shoot whoever makes these Japanese commercials. They're so ****ing annoying.

I can say the same thing for 99% of US commercials \=

You're a sick person.

Just because his immune system isn't completely efficient doesn't mean you get to make fun of him you mean asshole.

I think our commercials have gotten much much better recently. I was watching a recorded movie on a VHS tape that had a bunch of 90's commercials in it. Holy **** they were utter shit.

I still feel just about every single one of the commercials on TV suck horribly. I mean, half of them have nothing to do with the product, they just do something whacky/random/attempted funny to get the attention. They get your attention, they show the name of the product.

Example. Jeans commercial. Has these two people walking across town or something, through traffic and people. When they finally meet up in the middle, it shows the jeans logo. I mean, WTF?

Nope.

Cheomesh called Pulse a sick person for saying they should just give them [children] a light liquor beverage instead of a fake beer that has no actual liquor in it, and Ennui was addressing Cheo's Sick-person-ism.

Unless Ennui did mispost and then I'm wrong.

I think thats why they are better. Because I dont give a **** about their product, I just like their entertaining commercial.

Actually, they didn't really DRINK beer; they injected pure alcohol straight into their eyes using metal syringes.

[Cameo Appearance]

It's actually rather common around the world for children to be allowed alcohol.

Shakespeare drank 80 pints a day. That's why his plays are so good.

Yeah, it really is. Americas is one of the only places to have a higher drinking age than 16. Some European countries don't even have one. The countries with no drinking ages tend to have the least alcoholic problems with parties and such.

 

[[Matt]]

How far will this go?? Hyperdermic sryinges for kids full of saline solution instead of heroin?

 

[[Matt]]

Yeah, it really is. Americas is one of the only places to have a higher drinking age than 16. Some European countries don't even have one. The countries with no drinking ages tend to have the least alcoholic problems with parties and such.

Oh and the legal drinking age in the UK is 5 years old... however its illegal to buy it or drink it in a licenced bar if you're under 18. However its legal to have a single drink with a meal at age 16 and above.

Basically looks like Shloer - wine for kids
