In the last few weeks, especially after the 2016 election, many have begun to loose faith in all humanity. But alas, maybe there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. In recent news, Coca-Cola Company has released a product that automatically takes a selfie when you drink out of it.
How does it work? Well, it works like your regular Coke bottle but with a huge, bulky camera at the bottom that senses when there’s a 70-degree tilt, and snaps a photo. Then you can upload that photo to Instagram, Snapchat, or Facebook.
It’s the technological innovation that you never knew you needed. I know for me, personally, every time I drink Coke I sigh to myself, I wish there was a way for me to hands-free show the world that I’m currently drinking carbonated sugar-water.
Though this bottle is only available in Israel at the moment, I’m hoping that it comes to America ASAP. Nothing screams American culture more than selfies and Coca-Cola.
The Israeli company, Gefen, which developed the product released the following statement, “[The selfie bottle] makes the partygoers more present and active during the event, knowing they can share their special moments just by drinking.” And I think Gefen has a great point, I mean, just imagine all the possibilities.
Your next Instagram solo-pic, use the selfie bottle as your camera. Let all your Instagram followers know that not only are you hot but you are also super chill because you know, you’re taking a selfie drinking a freaking Coke.
Your next pregame, use the seflie bottle as your chaser. And let all your Snapchat friends know via your 100 plus-second long story that you’re not only drinking alcohol but you’re also drinking 39 grams of sugar.
Your next all-nighter, skip the coffee and have a selfie-bottle coke instead. Let all your Facebook friends know that you’re not only working extremely hard for the GPA but you’re also drinking a product that is proven to remove rust.
What a time to be alive, am I right?
