Author	Topic: Pepsi or Coca Cola?
Stranger than Fishing Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 05:14 AM Which is it? This has turned into the biggest argument between my friends since 'Who would win in a fight out of a Gorilla and a Jaguar?' I say Pepsi. Oooh. My first ever 'New Topic' Does life get any better than this? coming soon, Jaguar vs. Gorilla. Live on pay per view. IP: Logged
Treasure Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 05:16 AM Diet Coke for first choice, Pepsi Max 2nd choice. You can keep the rest. IP: Logged
Cheatara Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 05:20 AM Coke then Sprite when I just want pop. As for my favorite pops, Orange Crush, Green Apple Jones Soda, and this wonderful ginger ale in glass bottles that you can get at the starbucks station in the mall. IP: Logged

Mandarian Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 05:31 AM I am the victim of war crimes. My Mother (who I spend alot of time with, thanks Dr Freud) is a Pepsi junkie; my husband is a Coke Junkie. Both swear every place we eat only serves the other, and pete help us if we all go out together, somebody's gonna pout. For the record, I prefer Coke but I will drink Pepsi. Now please quit asking before I start mumbling and have to go sit in a corner. IP: Logged
Oli Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 05:38 AM Coke if I can get it, otherwise Pepsi-Max. Normal Pepsi is too sweet. ------------------ "Fun fact: stone is lots heavier than human flesh." - Toon IP: Logged

Acsumama Shuttlecock	posted May 11, 2001 06:05 AM My mom has a deep-seated physical addiction to Pepsi. So she would disown me if I ever drank Coke when Pepsi was available. But this is kind of a moot point for me, because 1) I honestly can't tell the difference. 2) I dislike cola in general. Give me root beer any day. Or, better yet, a non-carbonated beverage. Hey, look, theis cranberry juice has ingredients besides sugar, water, and "artificial flavors." Neat! ------------------ "Acsu, you may be the Swedish Chef." -- Element97 Potato God -- EMSP -- Lore 2000 -- Personal IP: Logged
clawdia Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 06:08 AM Umm.. what the hell is Pepsi Max? (DrPepper for the record.) IP: Logged
Stranger than Fishing Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 06:18 AM As far as i can tell, Pepsi Max is like Diet Pepsi for people who don't want to be seen drinking 'diet' it's quite nice as well. Not that i'd ever drink a 'diet' cola. That's a woman's drink. IP: Logged
IsMaryann_WantsToBeGinger Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 06:23 AM Because I am Indecision Girl, it's Coke when I feel like Coke, and Pepsi when I feel like Pepsi. I am a big fan of a Cherry or Vanilla Coke when it's made with real cherry or vanilla syrup. And Pepsi makes me burp more, so when I want the extra bubbles, that's what I grab. Ginger Ale, Dew, and Dr. Pepper rounds off the list for me. And when I can find it, a Cel-Ray. Who would think that celery flavored soda would be so good? IP: Logged
carrot Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 06:50 AM Normally by the time I resort to buying either I'm so thirsty I'd drink whatever they're offering. There's not really much difference - Pepsi, in all its incarnations, is a bit sweeter, that's all. Unless I'm doing it for the caffeine high, in which case Pepsi Max. ------------------ * Roup runs around on fire <clawdia> Oh dear. <clawdia> You've lit the Roup. <clawdia> The Roup <clawdia> The Roup <clawdia> The Roup Is On Fire! <Kes> oops.

I_like_cheese Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 07:10 AM In order of importance: Jolt Dr Pepper Cream Soda Cherry Coke Pepsi is just slightly better than Coke, but that's sort of like saying "Six" is slightly better than "Half Dozen". There is a particularly nasty section of Hell awaiting the inventor of Diet Soda (now THERE'S an Oxymoron, right up there with "Military Intelligence" or "Rap music"). IP: Logged
Stranger than Fishing Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 07:11 AM Who would think that celery flavored soda would be so good? you're kiddin, right? Celery flavoured soda? What will they think of next? IP: Logged
Earl Junior Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 07:31 AM In order of preference On its own: Mountain Dew Root Beer Ginger Ale Cream Soda Orange/Strawberry/Grape Crush As a mixer: Ginger Ale Seven-up Mountain Dew Pepsi/Coke (cause you can't tell with whiskey) IP: Logged
Five Tons of Flax Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 08:41 AM In order of preference: Dr. Pepper Cream Soda Assorted Coke products The only pepsi product that is marginally acceptable is cherry pepsi. The other stuff is just awful. And absolutely no diet anything. IP: Logged
SpicyJ Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 08:42 AM Hrm. 1. Sprite 2. Mountain Dew 3. Coke 4. 7-Up Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, and anything Diet are just icky. IP: Logged
Fire Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 08:46 AM I'm with Is_MaryAnn...some days are Pepsi days, and some are Coke. (Don't tell my dad-he works for Pepsi Co.) Right now, I am drinking a Sierra Mist. In case it matters. IP: Logged
OpticBoom Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 08:52 AM In order of appeal: Diet Mountain Dew Diet Dr. Pepper Diet Coke NEVER EVER EVER DIET PEPSI icky! ... and around here we have pepsi ONE but not pepsi max... whatta shame, and that ONE stuff is nasty too. btw... I'm diabetic, hence all the sugarless pop. And we say "pop" here, not "soda" Ya heathens! ------------------ "...the effect of which is like having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon, wrapped around a large gold brick." -Douglas Adams IP: Logged
SpcChick Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 08:56 AM Alrighty, here we go: 1. Diet Pepsi, warm 2. Diet Mtn Dew, warm 3. Coke, cold 4. That new red Mountain Dew, cold I am a freak. Just deal with it. IP: Logged
Jesse Dangerously Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 09:06 AM Acsu, I don't know if you're squeezing cranberries or buying Ocean Spray... ...but commercial cranberry juice has WAY more sugar than a comparable quantity of cola does. IP: Logged
Clickie Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 09:29 AM I don't really drink soda, but if I did, it'd be Coke. This may be from years of indoctrination (I grew up in Georgia, birthplace of Coca-cola). My boyfriend is a stalwart Pepsi fan. It's a source of conflict. Nowadays, I drink water, iced tea, coffee (with a little skim milk), or sparkling water. The only sugary beverages I drink on a regular basis are fruit juices, which are mostly naturally sweet, but sweet nonetheless. ------------------ "I hope you all get Static Cling Monsters and Wedgie Beasts for being so pesky." --clawdia The Big List of Sigs IP: Logged
SpicyJ Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 09:51 AM Red Mountain Dew? What's this? IP: Logged
Owlet Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 10:13 AM (1) Wink. If you don't know what this is, I pity you. If you can get it in your area, I will make you a piece of art special for you if you send me some. Unless you're EarlJr, in which case maybe I'll send you some underpants. Not necessarily mine. (2) Dr. Pepper. (3) Ginger ale. (4) tea (5) sweet tea (6) tea (7) more tea (8) etc. ------------------ Well, I remember one time staying here and your brother was growing weird things in the bathroom. --my grandmother IP: Logged
Y2Karen Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 10:15 AM BTWT vs. Pepsi? Bite the Wax Tadpole. But I prefer Dr Pepper. Sweet, sweet Dr Pepper, nectar of the gods. No period after the R. You enigmatic, bubbly and fruity beverage. I live for thee. (I'm sorry � it's just that I stopped buying it and I drink tea instead. So now it's a rarity.) IP: Logged
Y2Karen Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 10:20 AM Dude, Owlet. We ARE the same person. Tea! Tea! Tea! Oh, but I've never had Wink. I'm assuming from the underpants offer and the name of the beverage itself that it has something to do with seduction. IP: Logged
tv's Spatch Shuttlecock	posted May 11, 2001 11:07 AM Make mine Moxie! Hooray!! ------------------ In his house at Reading big fat Abbie waits dreaming. IP: Logged
Crestfallen Sloth Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 11:19 AM Red Mt. Dew! I think it is called 'red alert'or something chatchy like that. I'm not quite sure, but this stuff is great! cherry flavored anything makes me very happy. I also like RedBull, alot. Nothin' like legal liquid crack that tastes like sweet-tarts and turpentine. ------------------ "The Trash Heap has Spoken" IP: Logged
Wondrous Fnordia Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 11:51 AM FAAAAAYYYYYYGGGGOOOOO C'mon... you gotta love the Faygo. And/or Jones soda. Me thinks the pictures are gee-peachy-keen. Actually, I rarely drink soda. Maybe because people laugh at me when I say 'soda'. But what the hell is Pop?! ------------------ "Where DO boobies say hi?" --Spifferito Edited for Oomph and Panache.

Michigan Troll Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 11:55 AM yay, faygo! Coke. I've been boycotting Pepsi ever since the Einstein adverts, and they haven't given me any reason to go back since. Growing up, we had to drink the Caffeine Free Diet stuff, so it really made no difference whether it was Coke or Pepsi. The freaky looking flame monkey wins. No doubt about it. IP: Logged
Owlet Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 12:17 PM Wink is grapefruit soda. Think Fresca, except without all the nastiness. Hm. That's not really high praise, is it? Nonetheless, Wink is the Soda of Heaven, and NOTHING goes better with gin. --Y2Owlet ------------------ Well, I remember one time staying here and your brother was growing weird things in the bathroom. --my grandmother IP: Logged
Dingo Jones Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 01:01 PM With all due respect to my sweetest... Wink is weird. IP: Logged
pecos Cereal Subunit	posted May 11, 2001 01:21 PM Coke is it. BONUS: Unsolicited Soft Drink Fact In a bar, when you order a ginger ale and thy don't have any, they just mix sprite and diet coke. ------------------ Clowns innit. edited to day that whenI was in junior high my favorite soda was Diet Cherry Cola Slice.

Bolingbroke Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 01:48 PM I'll have to go with the Wax Tadpole here...though my doctor told me to eschew caffeine from now on, so it has to be the caffeine-free variety. I'm also a great fan of Squirt. And Jones Cherry Soda, and Faygo Red Pop. And every once in a while I start jonesing for Fanta, though I can never find any. Argh! ------------------ "Oh, I thought that was just a SINGLE entendre." -- nebulous menace IP: Logged
SpicyJ Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 01:57 PM There's a faboo brand of soda out in Lexington, KY (where my Dad's from), called Ale-81. It's fabulous, but you can only get it out there. : IP: Logged
Acsumama Shuttlecock	posted May 11, 2001 02:06 PM Jesse: I never said I objected to sugar. The other ingredients comment wasn't my reason for drinking juice -- otherwise I'd have to swear off Kool-Aid. IP: Logged
Toon Shuttlecock	posted May 11, 2001 02:19 PM Diet Wax Tadpole, for me. Cold cold cold. I don't care if it's flat, as long as it's cold. If I'm drinking the non-diet stuff (which is rare for me), I prefer Coke but I'll drink Pepsi. I will not drink diet Pepsi. That stuff am nasty. Pepsi One is reasonably palatable, but not much more so than Supermarket Generic Diet Cola. Oh, and if we're talking weird drinks: Unsweetened lemonade. That is to say, ice water with lemon juice in it. Mmmm. ------------------ -=> Toon "Not now, honey, mommy's making a sharp pointy thing." --IsMaryann IP: Logged
AndLuna Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 03:11 PM The only reason I'd be remotely interested in either Coke or Pepsi is if I was going to mix vodka with them; and somehow vodka just seems to go better with Coke. Pepsi is a little too sickly to mix well with it. ------------------ "...some of my books are kamikaze books, and throw themselves onto me while I'm sitting here typing, screaming 'REVENNNNNNGE!'. Well, no screaming, but they have been known to fall on me at strange times." --Kailet IP: Logged
Sandrylene Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 03:44 PM sniff there's nothing wrong with fresca! of course part of the reason i like it (as with many things) is the memory associated with it. (one of the last good times my sister and i spent time together before she moved to utah. ick.) that said, i'm attempting to swear off soda and coffee, so i'll go with white grape juice. IP: Logged
RichardT Self-Made User	posted May 11, 2001 04:17 PM What is Pepsi Max? A drink for wankers who go 'wooooooaaaargh' alot whilst doing some form of extreme sport or other, judging from the TV ads. Anyhoo my soft beverage order goes something like this: 1) Ginger Beer (not Ginger ale) 2) Tea (English Breakfast, NOT Earl Grey, which isn't real tea as it's been polluted by the evil bergamot) 3) Freshly squeezed orange juice 4) Coke 5+) Anything else 1000000000) Root Beer - I don't like drinks that taste of embrocation.
