Disgusting Ricola Cougher to Contaminate New York Next Week

The Ricola Mystery Cougher is, without a doubt, the most disgusting, ill-conceived promotion in the world. It's not fun, funny, interesting, clever, or sanitary. But it seems that it will never end.

Now it's coming to New York -- as if we didn't have enough to worry about. Well, Mr or Ms. Cougher, if you cough on a New Yorker, someone just might sue you for giving them bird flu.

Yick! Blecch! Yecch! Go away!
