s-PEPSI-IPHONE-APP-large

An app that helps guys “get lucky” with 24 different types of women had Pepsi serving up a mea cola yesterday, but consumers aren’t buying it.

The app, released to promote Pepsi’s AMP energy drink, presents guys with 24 types of girls, including such clichés as “Rebound Girl,” “Women’s Studies Major,” “Cougar,” and “Twins.” The app assures guys that it will be a “roadmap to success with your favorite kinds of women,” lets them create “Brag Lists” of girls they’ve gotten lucky with, and even encourages them to flaunt their conquests via social networking.

Pepsi’s half-hearted apology has left many customers cold and even instigating a boycott of Pepsi goods.

Let’s hope the men out there are scoring with this app, because Pepsi sure isn’t.

It’s an unofficial “easter egg” activated by shaking the phone thrice when in the Yelp app, and it’s pretty darn cool.
