New Energy Drink Won't Prevent AIDS, But Could Make You Wish You Were Dead

Oh, the perils of chasing the gay dollar. While it's hard to deny that homosexuals have limited interest for things don't come in a vial, or with a remix, or with a fat burner, we like to at least PRETEND to think we're more than one-dimensional.  Sure, no one's gonna sell an energy drink with a quote from Gide, but that doesn't mean we deserve the Anna Nicole-esque "Like to party? Like to work out? Like to party while working out?" pandering that recently appeared on Facebook for Eboost with the tagline "So Gay."

Hmmm. Granted, Eboost does contain selenium (which Lyndon Larouche types used to try and convince us could cure AIDS) and is gluten-free and carb-free, but until it they buy ad placement in a Madonna song or give us a chance to win a shopping spree at Ed Hardy, we're not putting down our glass of Marilyn Merlot.
