why sprite sucks..

** off topic **

Man, so Im sitting here in the office drinking a sprite (at 10 am.. yeah - but Im a "coder" and I need caffiene... which ironically, sprite provides none of) so I drink soda every now and then, when coffee gets old - anyways I havent drank sprite in forever - so I decided to get one today, and man does it fucking suck!

i think whomever came up with taking coke syrup, and flavoring it with lemon lime needs to be shot in the fucking head - and if they've deceased.. dig them up, give them a "stunner" (oooooh noooooo a wrestling joke lmmfao) and then shoot them in the back of the head this is the worst shit i have ever drank..

right now, i wanna fanta - and after that commercial, i swore to never drink that shit..

** resume to your normal threads, in general discussion... **

I can't drink regular soda since switching to diet about three years ago. The $hit's too sweet.

Sprite ... never was a big fan. Don't care much for 7-Up either. I still think those T-shirts were the bomb, though ...

I've never been a big soda fan. Always drinking lots of H20, Ice tea w/ no sugar, and lots of V8 juice. Soda always ripped my stomach apart.

Seldom ever had soda as a kid... then when I satrted making my own money I got hooked on the sugar and caffeine. I'm a Dew man at heart (thanks a LOT, Three Springs people) but I can't hack the caffeine much after 3 pm, so I drink pretty much anything not diet. Even the nasty stuff, like Big top 3 liters, and Sam's Club Dr. Pepper-substitute.
I never had a cavity until I was 26 yrs old, but it caught up with me... my teeth look like the suface of the moon. Stick with water.----->JMS

Songsmith,

Have you tried the caffeine free Mountain Dew? All the taste without all the caffeine.

By the way, do you know why Mountain Dew tastes the way it does and slides down your throat? It has vegetable oil in it.

Mello Yello does not use vegetable oil and does not taste at all like Mountain Dew.

Anybody see the Mt. Dew commercial with the guy riding a great white like a bull? Fu*king hilarious.

I drink the caffeine free Dew when I can get it. I had no idea about the vegetable oil, though. It does go down real easy (insert dirty joke here).
I didn't care for it originally, but when I lived in Three Springs Pa, everybody drank gallons of it, and always had some in the cooler with the beer. Apparently, it was the local libation. I used to go across the road to the only pop machine in town that served bottles, and 10am and I'm wired for sound. They had a talking Coke machine, too. I lived 40 feet away from it, and people used to put nickels in it so it would ask for more money for hours at a time. I have to confess, one morning about 4 am, it...ummm... lost it's voice. Vocal nodules maybe, or a Philips screwdriver hammered into it voicebox, I don't know.

I been trying to stay away from soda. Mostly drinking gatorade and flavored water. There are times though that I have to have the carbonation taste; as water tends to now have much of taste to it. One thing for sure is that soda has way to much sugar in it.

BDR · Post by **BDR** » Friday Apr 07, 2006

Don't eat yellow snow, carbonated or otherwise ...

There was a study done recently showing that Gatorade and Red Bull erode teeth just as much as Coca Cola. Check it out.

I love Sprite. Give me a flat and warm glass of Sprite any day.

I've actually bought it, opened it - let all the fizz out, poured a glass, shook it up, opened it and repeated the process until all the carbonation was gone. Mmmm!

What an odd post, haha. I hate soda though. I drink it occasionally, but ehh. I hate the syrupy taste it leaves on your teath. That's dark soda though. Sprite is kay, I guess.

Now if you want a real drink that will keep you up--
try some jolt <3

I was going to ask if anyone remembered Jolt...that stuff got me through many a third trick!

When I do Pennsylvania Musician deliveries and pass through Coalport, I celebrate when the Minit Mart has the super-caffeinated coffee on brew. That stuff will give you a kick in the pants!

Oh yeah, for those of you who don't speak Altoid, "trick" means "shift" here. It's a railroad thing, if I recall correctly.
I tried Jolt... kinda tasted like battery acid, but did supply enough caffeine to put lead in your pencil for about 4-5 hours.-------->JMS

They actually are selling Jolt again. I've seen it at Sheetz in some big ass cans. It comes in flavors now.
