Now what's the point of posting something like this?

You probably lifted the image from this site: http://www.goudey.org/Goudey/Gum/Pick_A_Ninny.html
so you are likely aware of the common usage of the gum's name.

I prefer Big Red, but I'm not a big gum fan, so I choose Mentos.

Nope. I sure didn't, and never new there was such a connection. Just did a search for ninny and found the pic. Guess that's what I get for not looking closer. Gone.

OIC, that makes sense. I hope you can see how it looked like you were going in a different direction, given the title of the thread and the image. Glad that wasn't the case. What do people think - keep the link, delete it, dump the thread, or do nothing?

Mentos in Diet Coke

yummy!

and explosive too!

I say keep the link. It's informative, if nothing else. I didn't even know about the gum's existence, to be honest.
