Cool Mint Listerine PocketPaks

Forget Extra. Forget Certs. Gum and mints have gone the way of the eight-track. Listerine PocketPaks are the wave of the future — a future where people drive flying cars and breathe extremely freshly and confidently. The Scotch-tape-like items are plucked from their tiny, thumbnail-sized home and placed on the tongue of the minty-inhalation challenged, and soon an odd but not uncomfortable sensation takes over. The strip dissolves, you swallow, and it’s like a tiny man with a mop of freshmint ooze slopped it all over the inside of your mouth. Actually, it’s more pleasant than that. The miniature mouthwash-in-a-strip fits easily in the pocket, refreshes the breath, clears the sinuses and will increase the chances of a make-out tenfold.

Taboo

With office holiday parties and family get-togethers right around the corner, what better way to avoid conversation than with a board game? Ironically, the very point of the quick-paced, fun-filled, lack-of-boredom game is not to say certain words. So, much like “Tina in accounting’s affair” or “Uncle Ben’s drinking,” players are forbidden to say specific things. However, they must still give other verbal clues and get their team to say the key word. So it’s like you’re talking, but without the pesky emotional connection. And the competition may foster rivalries and grudges that will last until Easter. Bonus.
