Thanks to WWND, this young man's troubles are no more.- Guidance in the Palm of Your Hand -
The phrase "What Would Jesus Do?" (WWJD) became popular in the 1990's as a personal motto for thousands of Christians who used the phrase as a reminder of their belief that Jesus is the example to be followed in daily life, and to act in a manner of which Jesus would approve. This is all well and good, but it just doesn't work for everyone. This is where the "What Would a Ninja Do?" (WWND) hand held button comes in.
Instructions:
Whenever one needs guidance in life, and God just doesn't seem to hear you, then you can turn to the WWND button. Whenever presented with a trial in life, WWND will guide you and help you overcome said trial. Simply push a button on this hand help plastic toy, and it will show you how to proceed through life (with written text on the small electronic screen) with indispensable advice like "Unleash Fury" or "Show No Mercy", and much much more. In short, the WWND is a guide that can help any lost soul through the many trials of modern day life.

Why is it fun?
Simply put, WWND is fun because it is funny, and funny things are fun. It's simple, you push a button and get a laugh and some ninja inspired wisdom applicable to everyday life. Everyone needs a laugh, and this toy can fulfill that requirement. Furthermore, ninjas are totally badass, and who can honestly say they couldn't use even just a little more badass in their life? It's portable and extremely easy to use. All you need to do is push a button.
Variations:
For those who are not as inspired by the cold fast logic and reasoning of the unstoppable ninja (see: cowards), or simply identify better with other there could be a wide variety and a whole line of these toys, such as:
- What Would a Viking Do?
- What Would Henry Rollins Do?
- What Would a Nihilist Do?
- What Would Chuck Norris Do?
- What Would an English Soccer Hooligan Do?
- What Would Walter Sobchak Do?
- What Would Tetsuo Do?
- What Would Goku Do?
- What Would Tyler Durden Do?
- What Would a Pirate Do?
This last one is especially appropriate for people like Jesse Jackson who are hopelessly under the delusion that pirates are superior to ninjas, when any REAL man knows that any ninja would ruin any pirate. Period.
Who is this fun for?
There is no concrete target audience for this product, but is widely applicable to anyone from roughly the ages of 16 to 25. Furthermore, this product is appropriate for a wide variety of young people regardless of social standing or sub-culture so long as they have a sense of humour, and/or are seeking guidance in life.
"Who is it fun for? Me! Anyone who can relate or appreciates any one of the different subjects represented (ninja, pirate, Chuck Norris, what-have you)." - Che Hernandez.

This concept feeds off some people's desire for guidance, direction and inspiration. Many OCAD students identify as atheists, but subscribe to pop culture and toys to dictate how they live their lives. Despite the possibility that some people many take the toy as literal, it could be used as a daily joke device - great for Rez Rats who have too much spare time!!!
