Coke or Pepsi?
 
Simple, and yet sophisticated.:cool:

AOIIAngel 12-12-2001 12:43 AM

LOL, neither- Dr Pepper!!!!

Beef 12-12-2001 12:44 AM

Neither, they both taste like crap. Stop drinking them for awhile and then try them again. Pepsi is a better tasting crap than coke though..

The1calledTKE 12-12-2001 12:47 AM

Coke! If you live in Georgia and don't like Coke you're a traitor! lol :D

Same here - Diet Dr Pepper is a pretty close second, too!! And zntke's right - the south is all about Coke products. (But my best friend's dad works for Pepsi, and we got lots of free stuff, so I've gotten over that!!)

aggieAXO 12-12-2001 12:52 AM

COKE
 
I LOVE coke, in fact I get a migraine if I go over 12 hrs without having one. I work overnights and use to drink a 12 pack every night, now I limit myself to 2-3. Pepsi-ewwwwwwwww

True..so true...I'll never forget this one time i was in Atlanta and asked for a Pepsi.. The waitress pretty much gave me the death stare, like I broke a law or something. Then I drove around and saw these huge Coca Cola factories and i'm like...mhmm... something's amiss here!

BrownEyedGirl 12-12-2001 12:55 AM

You'll always notice, particularly in the deep south, that people will ask if you want a 'coke', not a beverage or a soft drink. If you say yes, they'll say 'what kind?'. As in Sprite, Coke, or Diet Coke. Pepsi is hardly ever an option - Coke is just synonymous with drink!

Beef 12-12-2001 12:58 AM

I dont drink caffine much, but if I do its usually a DP.

OMG Karen, a 12 pack???? How long would it take you to get to sleep when you got home?

For the record, I love Pepsi best :)

aggieAXO 12-12-2001 01:11 AM

That's the problem Tracy I could fall asleep easily even with that much caffeine-of course i have to get up and pee every 2-3 hrs:D

Beef 12-12-2001 01:14 AM

I went through withdrawls BIGTIME after I quit drinking caffine!! For like 3 days I had a pounding headache and was one irritable motherf#@%er!! Now If I have half a bottle I am wired.

AOIIAngel 12-12-2001 01:27 AM

I am like that too....in fact, caffinee doesnt even affect me anymore, except if i dont have it, I get a headache. No hyperness, or being able to stay awake. Of course, that is why I probaly have a kidney infection right now. hmm, like ya'll wanted to know that. Sorry:eek:

IowaHawkeye 12-12-2001 01:41 AM

seriously people :rolleyes:
it has to be either coke or cherry coke - i like the diet options as well

pepsi - yuck:p

AOIIAngel 12-12-2001 01:42 AM

Ok, I can go for Cherry Coke, or a Vanilla Coke from Sonic.....yum!!

Hootie 12-12-2001 01:54 AM

I guess I'm easy to please!

I prefer Coke over Pepsi
Diet Pepsi over Diet Coke
Cherry Pepsi over Cherry Coke
Grenadine with Diet COKE is good too though.
With Cherry Pucker = COKE
With Jack Daniels = COKE

Either way give me a caffinated beverage and I'll be happy:)

Eirene_DGP 12-12-2001 02:21 AM

Coke most definately!!! I have to have one EVERYDAY!!! Pepsi makes my tummy bubble in that nasty little way. Ugh!! Pepsi ugh!

ladybug1116 12-12-2001 02:36 AM

When I drink soda (which isn't that often)...it would be Diet Sprite, Diet Mountain Dew or maybe Diet Coke if it was the only thing around.

ZTAMich 12-12-2001 02:46 AM

my school dining facilities only have pepsi so i try to get a coke as much as possible when i'm out to eat...diet rite is a fav of mine as well...

i could sure use some caffine right now to finish this freaking research paper!! grrr

Heather 12-12-2001 02:58 AM

Dr. Pepper is the only one I care about, but between the two I'd pick Coke, never diet of either though. I'm so happy they have Caffine Free DP b/c I can't have caffine after 2 or 3pm or else I'll never go to sleep.

SigkapAlumWSU 12-12-2001 04:15 AM

Coke! I think that Pepsi has this sickningly sweet taste.. but also, Diet Coke more recently, and DP as well. It's my fav!

shopgirl 12-12-2001 04:17 AM

:D COKE :D
:D MR. PIBB :D

I don't drink much soda, but I support Coke...Pepsi is Yukkie!!!

ZTAngel 12-12-2001 11:02 AM

I like Coke much better then Pepsi. But, Dr.Pepper is my fav soft drink.

That is because you are going through withdrawls from caffine. That is a pretty sevre addiction. Its a lot more common than people think, they just don't notice it because they consume so much. Caffine is one of the most addictive substances on Earth, not to menton the rest of the planet. I shouldn't talk though I drank 6 Frappacinos last night from starbucks. Half a case. I was going to drink all 12 but the girl who said I should come visit her at work wasn't there, so there was no reason to stay up all night studying for my exams. I'm still pretty wired. LOL last night, I got a Cosmo girl. Funny stuff at 2 am if your brain fried and make fun of it. That is why I think caffenine is evil. What was that? Nothing master. I need coffee. OR a coffee flavored frappicino. YUM!!

AMEN to that! And if you live in Atlanta and ask for a Pepsi, then Heaven help you because we sure won't!

I LOVE Coca-Cola. Pepsi is nasty! It's got this too-sweet aftertaste that bothers me terribly. My uncle lives in Florida and only has Pepsi at his house whenever I visit. I'd rather drink the Florida water than open a can of that stuff! :eek:

They have caffeine free DP? Not here!! When I went to Wofford my freshman year, Coca Cola tried out Diet Cherry Coke in that area (I also love Cherry Coke) and it was DELICIOUS. I just wish they'd bring it to Clemson or Columbia.

Anybody have Caffeine free DP or Diet Cherry Coke where they live? I'm starting to feel left out. :confused:

Beef 12-12-2001 11:41 AM

I have never heard of C/F DP either...:confused:

valkyrie 12-12-2001 11:53 AM

Coke, although I don't drink it that often. When I want caffeine, I drink coffee -- good, dark, strong coffee.

I was tortured my freshman year by living in Cleveland, OH. Explains it all. lol.

Asking for a "pop" beats asking for a Coke...:cool:

Thats like going to a Chevy dealer to look at new cars and saying "Yeah, I would like to buy a new Ford. I realy like those new S10s....":rolleyes: :p

FYI, I don't ask for Coke when I want a Sprite. :rolleyes: I certainly doubt a majority of Atlantans do that anyhow- there are a high percentage of "transplants" there. Don't make me define transplants. :P They don't use the term "pop" down here either.

Until I got to Cleveburg, I never heard anyone call a carbonated beverage "pop".

ask for a soda in the midwest and its a dead give away youre not from around these parts ;)

KABillyMac 12-12-2001 01:37 PM

Coke. From the little glass bottles. From a backwoods country store that keeps their old, white coolers about 1/2 a degree from freezing. Cold enough for ice to form when you pop the cap.

My old man calls em Sodey Waters.

UMgirl 12-12-2001 02:04 PM

Pepsi addicted

xok85xo 12-12-2001 02:09 PM

i don't really drink coke..but if i had to choose, definately coke over pepsi

KappaStargirl 12-12-2001 04:25 PM

COKE!!! Pepsi has got to be the nastiest stuff on the planet, outside of wheatgrass juice. I swear, I can actually feel the acid eating away at my teeth when I drink it.

I'm definitely not an addict, I drink about four cans of Coke in a year, but let me tell you, it was hard getting through my Masters at the University of Pittsburgh, which has a Pepsi partnership. YUck.

SparkliiQTMTSU 12-12-2001 06:48 PM

HMM well if I have to choose between Coke and Pepsi It would have to be Pepsi!! but otherwise I love Sprite and Squirt!!!

LOL, you are still feeling the effects of those frapps aintcha!?!? Easy on the caffine sweetie!! I don't think you handle it well!LOL

lifesaver 12-13-2001 02:27 AM

I am a coke kid. Pibb if available.

In Texas (my part) they are marketing Mountain Dew Code Red. It KICKS ASS. I am so hooked. Tastes just like a Sonic CherryLime Aid. YOU MUST TRY IT. The only thing that has ever tempted me to waver from my coke dependency.

bruinaphi 12-13-2001 03:53 AM

My fave is diet wild cherry pepsi, with diet vernors a close second. I much prefer pepsi products to coke products but on airplanes coke is where it's at. Don't ask. I can't explain.
