Google Moves Into Drink Market

atrader42 writes "Google has announced on its main page a mysterious new product called "Google Gulp". Featuring qualities such as "autodrink" and brain optimization, Google Gulp promises to be the drink of the future. Although one may be concerned about the fine print, which includes provisions such as "Google Gulp will send packets of data related to your usage of this product from a wireless transmitter," we should be able to trust them on this. What's next? Yahoo Yoohoo? MSN Munchies?"

    You're forgetting about this: II Kings 2:11

    "And as they still went on and talked, behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire separated the two of them. And Elija went up by a whirlwind into heaven."

    Now, can you imagine the Pope riding the PopeMobile like that?

    There are obviously tons of people that freak out about Gmail's method of showing ads when you view your emails and such, and here we have Google cracking jokes at their own practices.

    Well, ha bloody ha. What a hilarious joke invasion of privacy is. Honestly, I know Google has built up a lot of goodwill in the community, but that doesn't mean we have to sycophantically welcome every single thing it does.

    End of grumpy rant...
