Gainsborough, I have already slept with Stephanie. Too bad I had to kill her! (The real reason why they found a new actress)

It is my goal to become one of Sportacus's stuntmen.

As if that's not enough, the one button even says "What's in my belly?" and the logo looks like flying jizz.

Flying pink jizz. Perhaps the person behind the logo had a urinary tract infection?

And the tasty goodness of hazelnut coffee splatters the desk.

The slogan and logo were bad enough.. but you go to the tummy scanner, and what the kids might say... Combine the UTI Spooge logo, with "Theres a bad taste in my mouth"

Such lines as:

"Its hard to swallow, like something's stuck."

"The pressure hurts - it feels like the school bully sitting on my chest!"

"I feel like something's stinging in the top part of my belly."

"There's a gross, sour taste in my mouth."

and my personal favorite,

"It feels like there's a monster of a party going on in there!"
