Feb 23, 2005 02:59 pm Haha! The funny thing is that there's no plain vanilla or cherry dr. pepper, is there? You'd think they would work their way up to it...
It sounds pretty good, though. Diet Dr. Pepper is one of the few decent diet sodas, in my opinion.
Feb 23, 2005 03:02 pm I'm with Tadpui, I don't wear fake leather, don't drink "light" beer...it's all the same, lame impersonations of the original.
Feb 23, 2005 03:04 pm how 'bout that digital reverb though!!! lol
Feb 23, 2005 03:04 pm and I am ALL about digital everything.
Feb 23, 2005 04:08 pm diet soda is horrible to me, but diet dr pepper tastes less diet than all the others.
Feb 23, 2005 05:00 pm diet soda rox!!! i use to hate it, but started to drinking to cut out some sugar, and now i cant drink regular soda, its like syrup to me. same with milk, i cant drink anything but skim. but i can drink some Red Bull with jagermeister, love the jager bombs!!
Feb 23, 2005 05:14 pm I don't drink much soda anymore (unless it's jarritos), but for the record, I hate dr. pepper, diet soda, and cherry soda!
Feb 23, 2005 05:43 pm jager bombs rock!
do you guys have Sparks out there?
it's basically a pint of red bull that's 6% alcohol....i can't drink more than two in an hour or else i'll get all jittery.
peace

Feb 23, 2005 05:51 pm Ha!!!! Now, when it comes to drinkin, juice (soda) beer, red bull, etc - am yer man!! hehe.
As for red bull, man, ye need to have it with:
VODKA
BEER
GIN
ANYTHING.... :-)
Mix goes something like, 1/2 shots vodka, small amount of red bull, repeat til can empty, proquire more vodka, repeat til can empty, proquire more red bull and more vodka, repeat til wallet empty...ye get the picture. A GOOD night oot BUT....when ye awake fi yer drunken slumber (due to the vodka!!) Ye STARE at the roof for hrs, realising its only 4am!!!! Then, ye are rudely awakened by the lark at 6am....woooohoo! Thats the bull for ye.
As for Dr Pepper...like it I do not. And ALL DIET juice sucks man...sorry, my opinion. Watery, tatestless awful stuff.
For sugar or NOT at all for me.
As for light beer...us Scots would not entertain such a thing, unless we were perhaps so drunk we couldnt tell the difference but then, we would not be real Scots! hehehe.
All the best to ye's.
Coco.
Feb 23, 2005 06:20 pm The sugar substitute in diet soda tastes like it is probably worse for you than the sugar it replaces...
Coke's C2 is a pretty good compromise, in my opinion.
Feb 23, 2005 06:50 pm Dr. Pepper = Fizzy Prune Juice. You can keep it.
Red Bull + Vodka = BAD Hangover (but fun)
Irn Bru + Vodka = NICE
Mountain Dew rules. Shame about the silly flavoured ones though.
Feb 23, 2005 06:52 pm Aye, BARR's Irn Bru n vodka...top top stuff for sure.
Coco.

ok ive got to find this stuff.. i bet its really expensive, i was going to buy a case of red bull at Sams Club but it was 31 bux, so i bought a couple cases of yuengling instead. no wonder a jager bomb is 10 bux!!!!!!(in a dumpy,tiny sports bar)
Feb 23, 2005 08:37 pm coco,
do you drink alot of Young's stuff??
im a big RAMROD fan!!! thats the best beer ever made!!!
Feb 24, 2005 12:14 am I heard Budweiser is gonna come out with a beer energy drink (that's right, both in one). I swear to god I'll not try that more than once!
Feb 24, 2005 07:11 am Young's ?? Never heard of it my man...
I drink a lot of brown stuff! hehe...nah, I drink Miller Lager and McEwans Beers...I started as a beer drinker a little before I, ahem, should have, then drrank lager for a while.
Now, I like both tho I predominantly drink lager in cans (cheaper than bottles) usually Miller Draft (note: NOT MGD which is in bottles). I'll also drink a bit of Carlsberg as I love that stuff.
But, McEwans 80/ or Newcastle Brown Ale IS THE dogs for sure...top top beer and NAE DOUBT. I do like a good pint of proper beer or a bottle of ale but alas, the lager goes doon easier and faster.
If not that, I'd have a wee vodka or on the very rare occassion, a wee dram of whisky. NOTE: Not any guff but decent Scottish single malt...
But, mostly, I drink tea or coffee...as otherwssidjse, I'ds justt be sto oo frdrunk too mt type ! hehehehe.
Cheers

PorpoiseMuffins, you are right. there is this stuff in diet soda called phenalalynene (sp) that is so incredibly horrible for your kidneys and brain that if you look on the side of the can it says in CONTAINS: PHENEALALYNENE.
My fiance works with a guy who supposedly helped create the stuff (or knows a guys who knows a guy). He said Coke told it's scientists to make something that is calorie and sodium free. well it is calorie and sodium free, but it kills people slowly and makes them stupid. But hey, at least you'll be skinny, right?
Feb 24, 2005 10:58 am You'd be surprised how many "good things" are bad.
It good to recycle paper, right? save a tree and all that? Well, the bleach to make the paper all white again adds to opening the hole in the Ozone a little wider...
Feb 24, 2005 11:03 am Coco, allow me to field XTC's question on Young's here, since I am a Wandsworth native (home of the Young's Brewery). My cousin actually works there!
Youngs is, IMHO, the absolute best beer! A pint of "ordinary" or a light and bitter! Fantastic. Ram Rod is their bottled ale, usually used to as the top-half of the aforesaid light and bitter. Very strong (at least the English version is). I grew up on that stuff (also a "bit early"), and it does actually take an acquired taste. My favourite "game" was to take my relatives from Yorkshire to a Youngs pub, and listen to them complain about how weak the beer was...... After a few, we'd go outside, and they'd drop like flies! Couldn't handle it! So much for the Yorkshire beers.
If you ever get the opportunity, try the "Winter Warmer." Very strong, only sold in 1/2 pints in the pubs, and only available in the winter months. Fantastic. A bit like a porter.
Youngs still delivers the beer to the local pubs on drays pulled by Shire Horses (like a dark chestnut Clydesdale, only more massive). Have been doing this forever. Plus they have a little farm yard thing in the grounds of the brewery.
Ah, that Wandle water (if you saw the Wandle, you'd see why that's funny).
OOoooooh, the memories.......
By the way, Coco, the 80/- is fantastic, but makes for a quiet breakfast. McKewans "Red Death" (Export) is awful. Tennants. Now there's a good one.
I'm totally into the Single Malts. Can barely touch anything else any more.

yeah ive heard all this bs before, the aspartame studies. blah blah blah. no facts man.
i love how one year milk is good for you, the next year its bad.
i think it all boils down to one thing, nothing is good for you in excess, thats the bottom line.

Feb 24, 2005 11:12 am hey xtc, the 16oz of sparks costs about $1.50
not bad at all, but you can't really get drunk off 'em but man oh man dot they give you a spark!
the budweiser version is only an 8 oz can for roughly the same price and tastes like ****...yuck
sparks tastes just like red bull!
good stuff
as for ma beer, i love anything lager, dark beer is the best for me, i love all forms of it...

sorry boys, no offense, but I can't stand scotch whisky. Too smoky, peaty, or whatever it is. If you're gonna go whisky, I propose Canadian, specifically VO or Crown, and on the rocks. Emmmm, VO....
Feb 24, 2005 02:30 pm yeah them Canadians make some damn fine whiskey, ever tried Windsor?
Feb 24, 2005 02:32 pm My brother in law ('er indoors' sister's hubby) refers to Scotch as "That Salty Sh**"
He's into Irish Whiskies.
Canadian, Bourbon, and Irish all seem a little too 'sweet' and syrupy to me.
I guess everyone is different. That's why there are so many choices out there.
Did get right into Bourbon and Crystal Pepsi at one point. Wonderful! Then they discontinued the Crystal Pepsi. GaH!
XTC, do they have a Trader Joe's near you? They carry Young's on occasion.
Sorry, but every time I see your name appear, I get "We're only making plans for Nigel" stuck in my head.... Iknow there are some wonderful XTC albums, but that's the one that sticks.
Feb 24, 2005 02:34 pm ha i've only heard the primus version, good tune though.
Feb 24, 2005 02:37 pm now i have to read up about phenylalanine, since i've recently become addicted to listerine mint ... tape. whatever that tape stuff is.
hey, you purists! i'd like to make the case for a fine american watery beer called rolling rock. now, i like my guinness, just like anyone. but sometimes you need beer...without needing beer. sometimes i just want to swig something that doesnt require me to enjoy it. or, well, even notice it. that's why i enjoy rolling rock: the finest carbonated alcoholic meltwater you can find. utterly non-intrusive, ya barely know it's there. with no crappo aftertaste, it stands above brands like bud or miller. and it even comes in a cool green bottle. rolling rock: cultivate your repressed love of the tasteless!
Feb 24, 2005 03:00 pm Nah Lads...YE canny whack the tins of Miller or McEwans Export, 80/ or Newcastle Broon Ale (the FINEST ale in the WORLD!!!!)...
Sorry TallChap..Tennents is chemical rubbish my man...cannot drink the stuff maself.
Whisky - as Duncan Macleod said "There can be only ONE!".... :-)
Anyways...am off for abeer!
Coco.
Feb 24, 2005 03:02 pm I can't drink hard liquor, only beer.
I have this really bizarre allergy to hard liquor that makes my eyes swell up and a lips break and I never remember it happening.
Feb 24, 2005 03:08 pm i don't trust beer in green bottles....i read in the beer encyclopedia that the bottle color has alot to do with how it's made, like clear bottles let in all the light so the yeast in it is dead (i think) then you have dark brown bottles which let in very little light, but green...green bottles i just wierd, ha ever look inside a bottle of guiness? ya can't!! lol
anyway yeah i try to stick to brown bottled dark lagers...tastey as for a "drinking" beer i find unkle auggie's micky light does the trick for me.
peace

Feb 24, 2005 08:02 pm forty, i use to be a big rolling rock fan being from PA, i quit drinking it for awhile, so i ordered one while i was out at a bar recently and it just tastes like a$$ to me. i couldnt drink it, but i still support PA by drinking lots of yuengling, its the best american made beer, hands down!!
