Svedka Encourages War-Mongerers to Drink Up

The fembot vodka icons of Svedka are back with a politically provocative slogan: “Make cocktails, not war.”

Wish our presidents thought that way. Well, maybe this one does. The Svedka campaign is probably just a thinly-veiled attempt to get us all to warm to the idea of robot rule before, after a short-lived golden age meant mainly to ease the transition, they all kill us for the sake of efficiency.

It’s all just like Flight of the Conchords said it would be – except they failed to mention a critical component of our overtaking would be the T and A factor of said robots.
