If you’re one of those people who gets a kick out of unironic absurdity, you’re, uh… urine luck. [Groan] (Sorry for that.)
In an effort to “humanize [their] medical devices,” HealthPartners has unveiled their new mascot— a personified pee cup named Petey P. Cup. The unconventional spokesman apparently targets the coveted eager-to-piss-in-anthropomorphic-jars demographic. Check him out below.
Listed as “Coming soon,” is Petey’s sidekick, Pokey the Syringe. Presumably, he’ll be that rare child-friendly character who discourages sharing.
Other mascots who were considered but ultimately axed include Carl C. Colostomy Bag, Katherine P. Catheter, and Eddie the Enigmatic Enema, a mysterious villain who was to use his medical powers for evil. We'll leave it at that.
Also: Petey has his own Facebook profile. (Ladies, take note: He’s totally single. And loves Grey's Anatomy.)
