Yeah.. it's more about the perception of marketing psychology. I've got a feeling whatever 'label' an Aussie or Kiwi would drink would be weirder.

And look at the difference in how Blazerchick read that label and how I did.

Same thing applies to car marques. look at domestic Japanese marques vs north american's:
Princess, Starlet.. etc. {Or crack-wh*re, if the North Koreans were to revive the Trabant**} whereas NA folks want their cars to project masculinity.. all labels typical power or strength related.. but we still think of our own cars as 'she'.

just a little philosophy thrown in..

** That's a joke..Dont ask me what that means, research it!

They want what??? Only about my cold, dead body...

I know that you only make jokes, but I don´t understand everything, ´cause my english is not good enough.

But I understand what you mean...
For example, some european car names:
Mitsubishi Pajero - in Spain it has another name, because it means a w**nker
Or Toyota MR2, in France spoken like merde (sh*t)

back on topic, I drink an amp in the morning because I cannot drink coffee, though when I was able to I would drink maxwell.
