The Mentos Intern
August 8th, 2007 by 
Edward Dron
Mentos has launched a very interesting and robust microsite, where you can ask their intern to do things for you. The concept is similar to BK’s Subservient Chicken; however, their intern is not as obedient.
Trevor the intern is a busy man, so you can’t just type in a command and expecting him to do it right away. You have to take a look through his schedule and find an open time slot.
So how can Trevor improve your life? You can ask him prank call your friend or do something more useful like proofread your term paper.
It’s a brilliant idea that’s executed beautifully. Trevor also has his own blog, a Facebook account with more than 630 friends, and a MySpace page. You can even play against him on XBox Live. If you want to interact with Trevor, you can instant message him and watch him react to it via a live video feed. This microsite is definitely worth a click.

If you go to the archives for August 15 at 1:15, my friend got him to eat 3 packs of mentos in 5 minutes. He gets ill (to say the least).
Moral of the story: be careful what you tell an intern to do. They might do it.
