Looking for some feedback.

What do you think of these products? I know that some of them you have never heard of because they are new. Just give me your opinion and I will explain my reasons later.
I know you are asking yourself why I want to know your opinion on these products. Your just going to have to wait on that question, until a later date. 
Thank you.

Alright Steve, I'll bite.

I HATE all of these products, and here is why, one by one.

Arizona Iced Tea/Vapor Water - I don't mind Arizona Iced Tea, but I followed there link and they have the most obnoxious website I have ever seen (heard). I don't know what vapor water is, but if I'm thirsty, I want water, not vapor. You give me Vapor? I imagine I'll still be thirsty and I'll go looking for water.

Vidration - Never heard of it, but there website doesn't fit my browser, so they suck.

Xenergy - Isn't the whole "extreme" thing a little old? That term is so overused that I don't believe anything to be extreme anymore.

Oh Yeah! - Seriously? Can't Kool-Aid sue them for this? Come up with your own tag line, losers.

Go Girl - Must I really explain why this bothers me. I'm all for women's liberation, but it don't come in a pretty pink beverage, and I'm pretty sure that it has nothing to do with an energy drink.

Killer Buzz - First image on their website, a Hummer with the brand name on it. How many cans of Killer Buzz am I going to have to buy before that Hummer and its gasoline is paid for? Not to mention they couldn't come up with a better web design than a photo of their ridiculous company vehicle. And why a hummer? I highly doubt one of their marketing teams is 4 wheeling through the unpaved terrains of the desert to promote "Killer Buzz". Ridiculous.

Revolution Tea - This is right up there with Go Girl. Revolution used to come by the blood and passion of the people taking it to the streets. Apparently now you can experience it by buying a 3 dollar bottle of tea that is probably brewed by Nicaraguan children that make 7 cents a day so that yuppies can overpay for a beverage that might make them feel good about themselves. The Revolution will no be televised, brother!

Borba - Their website has naked people all over it. I don't know whether to rehydrate or close the curtains to my apartment! It's like ancient Rome meets the W Hotel. This one is the worst. I want to set the factory on fire.

Alright Steve. Now, why did I just write all this?

AZ tea site really does suck. After strolling around you would of found vapor water, it is just like smart water.
Killer buzz I also noticed the girls in front of the Hummer are not model and actually not easy on the eyes. Sell the hummer and get some good marketing girls.
I could be promoted to a position in our non-alcoholic division. These are some of the products they have taken on, and will be acquiring many more.
Thanks for the input.

AZ Tea: It's super popular here in California... and I just don't know why. The branding and drinks have really tanked in recent years.

Vidration: The fact that the website says "coming soon" means that the product will not be around long enough to have a website.

Xenergy: If the fighting doesn't kill you, our drink just might.

Oh Yeah!: Oh noes.

Go Girl: The people that dreamed this up need to be dragged into the street and stoned with cans of their own beverages. This is clearly a product designed by a professional marketer. Fail.

Killer Buzz: They should have hired a graphic designer. Everything was so ugly, I could bare to look.

Revolution Tea: I might give this one a try. The package is nice and the marketing is not over the top.

Borba: Give me a break. Lame has just been redefined.
