"Grown Up Juice"

We're The Great Old Ones Now

13:59 / 03.05.02

I was thinking about this.

I mean, on the face of it, it's a kinda funny way of telling someone to grow up (and therefore guaranteed to derail debate and make everyone crosspatchety).

But as I turned it around in my head, I saw possibilities.

Blood serum from an adult used to retard growth.

Juice which has passed A-levels and is now in degree-level education.

The fully mature version of 'Upjuice', the natural hallucinogen whose younger version just gets you high.

And of course...let me take this opportinuty to say 'ew' at the obvious other meaning.

No! No! This is not going to degenerate into a metathread about whether or not it made you grumpety. If you're going to post here, you're jolly well going to talk about silly things like truck-sized carrots and their fear of the liquidizer.

So there.

put you didnt let me finish!

I was going to tell you how I single-handedly (with the help of my bitch-posse) thwarted (slowed down) his evil (tepid) plans (toilet ruminations...I have spies everywhere) for barbelith domination by spiking all the barbemeet drinks with grown up juice (buying a round of drinks)

waHA!

Well, the players in question stopped pissing and whinging in the thread in question, so this day confirms *me* happy. Thank grown-up juice, thank God himself, but be thankful.

It's clearly a failed marketing devise, based on the reasoning that "juice adverts are always aimed at kids, right? Bright colours and cartoon monkeys and shit - but grown ups drink juice too! It tastes good! It's healthy! So let's aim for them! Like the opposite of alco-pops!"

The resulting product came in a brown cardboard carton, had a picture of a newsreader frowning on the front and was on sale for about 3 weeks before being discontinued due to lack of interest.

Bk – have you tried the ignore button yet? I know you had some reservations about it earlier, but I can assure you that's it's really effective.

Stop it! If you want to be serious, take it outside. This topic is for discussion of the goo grown-ups make, and how it relates to the sexual practices of mutant warthogs (Did you know that "George Herbert Walker Bush" is an anagram of "Huge Old Rebel Warthog"? Alas, it's more difficult with Jnr.) and the other things mutant warthogs do when they aren't playing Warthog Scrabble (tm).

Would you like some Grown-Up Juice to wash down that Werther's Original?

they're creamy and uncommonly good, you know

Ew. More disgusting even than grown-up juice. Werthers.

I'll never forget my first Werther's Original. The crinkly wrapping, the smoothness against my tongue, the sweet taste. And after that he gave me a Werther's Original to take the taste of grown-up juice away.
