stink-a-lyzerYou can always count on Virgin Mobile to come up with new and wacky ways of generating hype and attention. This little tidbit is no different. Virgin Mobile has said ‘kiss bad breath goodbye’ with their new service: The Stink-a-lyzer. From Virgin Mobile:

Studies show the number of one night stands and successful job interviews is significantly reduced by the presence of nasty breath; while the instances of crying babies, offers of gum and people yelling “thanks, but no thanks!” is greatly increased. In response, Virgin Mobile is launching the Virgin Mobile Stink-a-lyzer. This mobile phone service is an industry first – it helps you take a reading of the number of nasty breath particles in your mouth and lets you know if you are good to go… or good to go home.

The service is intended to answer the age old question, ‘does my breath stink?’. All you need to do is call 1.647.240.5653 and blow into the receiver when prompted. Give it a shot, it’s hilarious.

April Fools! (Seriously though, give it a shot… funny stuff)
