Did you just call Hydrox an Oreo knockoff

My dude, the better-entrenched brand is not always the original.

Well it's no wonder Oreo took over, who wants to eat cookies that sound like a cleaning detergent?

It's either that or your grandma's biscuits that help her poop.

P.S. Not trying to attack you, just always wondered why anyone would choose HYDROX(it sounds like a fucking poison, right? am i the only one? WHAT IS GOING ON??) AS THE NAME OF THEIR GOD DAMN COOKIE!!!!11!!!!

Hydrox could be a detergent, medicine, plumbing brand, pet supplument, video game boss, maybe even a sports drink but NOT a freaking cookie.

I lost it at "video game boss" but honestly you're spot on with all of these.

You've never grabbed a bottle of fabuloso to wet your whistle?

Yeh I fully agree. Horrible branding.

No I did not, it was just a comment on their superior flavor profile. Sorry if it came out wrong, English isn't my first language.

It's a context thing, not a language thing. People will usually assume your title (hydrox) has something to do with the thing you posted (oreo knockoffs).
