Get the throat sweatmug. The mysterious murky liquid that appears on the skin on Stevie (especially on the face, neck, arms, back, butt, and gental regions) shortly after the slightest of physical exertion. This liquid is known to be highly toxic and must be avoided at all cost. Despite this, females seem to be highly attracted to the liquid.
It was 20 degrees out, yet some how, 10 steps into the run, the sidewalk is already drenched in Stevie Sweat.
