I'm getting pretty fucking sick of trying to figure out what "natural flavors" are in my snapple tea. It's obviously more than mango... and I'll bet my bottom dollar that there's some pear juice in this guy. But alas... it lists only "natural flavors". What's the point of even adding that to the list?

Also, something that I'm getting really sick of are these smug, quaint little sayings on everything. Yogi tea is the only thing that I'm okay with these sayings on, because they are quotes by the man the tea is named after. Besides that... it's a ton of stupid shit like:

"In this bottle, there is a lot of ECCG (we don't know it means either.) So if you want antioxidants, and a bunch of ECCG (or whatever it's called) drink Snapple."

GOD DAMN IT SHUT UP.

Just tell me what's in it, or something slightly interesting about where it's from (which is probably bullshit)... but please don't try and really "speak" to me and capture my allegiance to your corporation. Above everything else, you need money, and want it from me for your product. I understand this... so you're not fooling me by making me think you're my best friend and you can come down to the consumer level and "speak our language".

Ugh, I'm not even in a bad mood. I just hate advertising.

I haven't listened to System of a Down in years... but off of "Steal this Album!" on the first song they have the lyrics:

"Therapy therapy therapy advertising causes therapy therapy therapy."

Too true.
