I know this is coming from MSN news. Definitely not my favorite source, but I couldn't stop laughing. Kool-aide is serious business.

The potential for deliciously politically-incorrect humor is strong in this one. . .

June is officially "let's injure each other over kool aid" month.

Man I can't wait until next year!

I had a friend that made Kool-Aid using only 1/4 the asked for sugar. No one knoew this until he served it, not realizing that most people don't (essentially) just add water to the powder. The looks on peoples faces was priceless, but there was no fight.

Any political incorrectness/racist remarks made based on this post will speak more of the character of the individual making those comments than the actual event. It's just like that post I made the other day about the "racist" watermelon Oreos. There is nothing politically incorrect in the slightest bit about a watermelon flavored Oreo, especially when the cookies are vanilla flavored. Yet a large number of people called the cookies racist. Such statements pointed more towards the racist ideologies of the commenters than the actual cookies.

It's pretty mind boggling (though not surprising) that someone would kick off over something so petty, stuff like this seems every day when you look at the amount of stories like these you see on news websites.

I've beaten up a few people over their kool-aid remarks.
Some srs business

What? No cyanide? He was definitely making it wrong then.

Well, considering that Cyanide is ONLY a requirement when making Flavor Aid, I think we're okay here.

I remember making kool aid and lemonaid ice pops with toothpicks and ice cube trays almost daily as a kid. I always thought koolaid was the original crack. Oh yea!!!

So did I until I discovered Mountain Dew. Go caffeine!

Sometimes people do need help with their kool-aid techniques.

On the last day of school The Boy brought home a packet of kool-aid that his teacher had tied to a silly straw with a note that said "Have a Kool summer" or something (I didn't personally see the note). Now, she had used a hole punch and a ribbon to make this little gift package. Now, I'm sure the observant among you have some idea how hole-punches interact with packets of powdered drink mixes.

We need to de-grape his backpack.
