You remember Zima, right?? It was an advertisement campaign that would make the biggest spin doctor on earth weep with jealousy. The catchy commercials started about a year before the malt liquor hit the market. It was brilliant. It suckered everyone into buying Zima at least once. Hopefully only once. It even worked on us.

You know, I only bought Zima once.
