New Mexico is taking its fight against drunken driving to men's restrooms around the state. The state has ordered 500 talking urinal cakes that will deliver a recorded anti-DWI message to bar and restaurant patrons who make one last pit stop before getting behind the wheel.
"Hey there, big guy. Having a few drinks?" a female voice says a few seconds after an approaching male sets off a motion sensor in the device. "It's time to call a cab or ask a sober friend for a ride home."

Anybody PO'd about this? OK, it is just a pun.
To be PC, do we flush once for Engiish?
Female voice?
Does that mean in a gay bar it will be a male voice?
Such as the voice of the computer HAL in the movie 2001?

How bout a seductive female voice that'll make the urinal experience a more gratifying event?

Great, now I have to change the punchline,
"Please don't eat the big, white, talking mints" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

How many guys are going to be sure they've had too much to drink because the urinal cake is talking to them?

These "smart" urinal cakes should be able to sense their
"ambient" alcohol level, and only perform this public service if over the legal limit. Alternatively, they could emit a "thank-you" for staying legal if under. If no alcohol detected, profusely thank the patron for being a designated driver.

To be PC, do we flush once for Engiish? If they aren't bilingual, the folks who need to hear the message aren't going to understand it.
