Oozinator
Encyclopedia : O : OO : OOZ : Oozinator
The Oozinator is a water gun manufactured by Hasbro. It is the latest iteration of their popular Super Soaker line of toys. Unlike many similar toys that shoot only water, the Oozinator shoots a type of viscous goo.
The Oozinator gained attention due to the peculiar commercial advertising the toy. The commercial shows five different children being sprayed with the toy, but the goo spray can easily be interpreted as semen. The sight of children receiving what appears to be a money shot may be funny or offensive to some viewers. In addition, the commercial contains the line "major pumping required" and shows the user pumping the phallic pump in a fashion that resembles the motion used in male masturbation. The first child getting squirted also seems to rub the goo in instead of attempting to deflect it. Also, the goo is called "bio-ooze," which would imply it is produced by a living being, as body fluids are. All of these factors have led some to believe that the makers of the toy and commercial did this intentionally.
The commercial was used in many YTMNDs, with the "skeet, skeet" line of "Get Low" playing. This oddity was also featured on memepool, which linked to Amazon.com customer reviews that contained overt sexual overtones. As of May 10, 2006, these reviews have been removed from Amazon.
