Actually that is the reason they always write it with multiple "i"-s. it gives you "wiiings" not "wings": https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-29550003 They had to pay $13 million for false advertising in 2014 https://startuptalky.com/red-bull-tagline-history/

Literally nothing was added to this by using ai to make the person fat. Accelerating the burning of the world cause you don't trust your joke to work unless you make the guy fat. Pathetic, man.

Reminds me of the time Pizza Hut took Papa John's to court over their slogan "Better ingredients, Better pizza, Papa John's." Papa John's' winning argument was that the slogan is in nature a boastful opinion, as almost all slogans are. They submitted to evidence a search of the US Trademark office's records of slogans in then-current use, and the only purely factual slogan they could find was Sony's "It's A Sony" slogan, which was only purely factual via tautology.
