Someone already tried.

A television commercial for the loyalty program displayed the commercial's protagonist flying to school in a McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II vertical take off jet aircraft, valued at $37.4 million at the time, which could be redeemed for 7,000,000 Pepsi Points. The plaintiff, John Leonard, discovered these could be directly purchased from Pepsi at 10¢ per point. Leonard delivered a check for $700,008.50 to PepsiCo, attempting to purchase the jet.

What a cucked judgement. I would have ruled for the plaintiff, with prejudice

It was a joke, mate. A simple jest. A jape, if you will

Most jokes need to be recognizable as funny?

Like if you say the word cucked, ever, I'm going to assume you're serious and an imbecile and I would be right to do that, no?!
