If only I'd known before now that you could buy a pill to make men perfect, and I don't mean the little blue ones!

No that's the ingredient. That's why there aren't any running around anymore

just shows what utter bull marketing is.. all its saying is we have omitted the name "cod liver oil". we then put the "fancy named stuff" into capsules then in a fancy box and charge you a fortune.

changing the names of old fogey stuff to appeal to the younger generation.

The smell surely irrelevant. Just burping near you is far from perfect.

You're just realising this now?

That's the whole purpose of marketing. Describing the same thing in a way that makes it sound better to a target audience, and then delivering it (the message not the product) to said audience.

You know that thing where a round teabag fits the bottom of the cup perfectly and it's really satisying. Well, it appears the straps on a Lomo 15L Tail bag line up perfectly with the fixing points on a Givi Trekker box. Almost as if they were designed to go together, which I very much doubt they were : )
(I doubt I'll actually be using it there, but nice to know I can if I need to)
