Then let's be freaky together... cause I can't tell either! But that doesn't matter, cause I ALSO don't like carbonated beverages.

:P

But I still voted for coke. It's the original, and their old commercials were awesome. :D

kyabetsu 04-30-2003 03:49 PM

didn't coke also have COCAINE in their drink as a "SPECIAL INGREDIENT" waaaaaay back in the day?

or am i just confusing urban legends w/ reality again?

Eye of Sarnath 04-30-2003 04:07 PM

I don't think so. That's why its' called "Coke".

ACtually the can says "Coca-cola" not "cokea-cola" so it was originally Coca, and Coke is just what people call it.

J Legault 04-30-2003 04:11 PM

Well believe it or not. My Father works for a Pepsi Group in Buena Park. He's been an employee for 14 years now. He tells me what is coming and what isn't coming out. I like regular Pepsi sometimes. I'm more of a Coke person. I like Vanilla,Cherry, or even Regular Coke. All he brings home is Diet Pepsi. I hate Diet products. It contains less sweetness. My dad also brings some new prototype of drink that will be successful.

Tokka-B 04-30-2003 04:17 PM

I like pepsi better, but I like coke better than pepsi. I like lemon pepsi and pepsi blue, both of which are better than coke. Vanilla coke is just sick, talk about a cream soda knockoff... :roll:

Also, coke used to be an alcoholic beverage and they had coca cola fountains back in the day as well...

Karpo_007 04-30-2003 04:27 PM

Rum cola is a real drink here....

Like you can just go to a store and by it already in the can o_0

Tetsu Deinonychus 04-30-2003 04:32 PM

I prefer Pepsi over Coke but I like the fruit flavored Soda-pop better than the Colas.

Tokka-B 04-30-2003 04:35 PM

Ok, when I go to Finland, save me a case, will you Karpo? :thyper:

Here is the answer to all your questions and so much more, Kya!

BTW sometimes Urban Legends ARE reality!

Tokka-B 04-30-2003 04:44 PM

Ummm, I don't think so, otherwise they really wouldn't be legends....

A common one that bugs me is the one in Aladdin the disney movie...I mean, what pervert is going to think of that?

But there are awkward truths out there...like in a disney movie that they released to dvd, one of the workers put in a pic of a naked lady on for a split second...you'd have to have the best vision possible to spot that, unless you are actually going thorugh clip by clip to saerch for errors... The worker was then fired, and the people who had already got the dvd were allowed to refund it, I wish I had a copy of that one.... :lol:

Direct from the FAQs section of www.snopes.com:

Quote:

Q: Why do you have some true stories listed as "urban legends"?

A: An "urban legend" is not the same thing as a "fictional tale" or an "apocryphal anecdote," although many people mistakenly use the term in that sense (e.g., "That's not true; it's just an urban legend!"). A tale is considered to be an urban legend if it circulates widely, is told and re-told with differing details (or exists in multiple versions), and is said to be true. Whether or not the events described in the tale ever actually occurred is completely irrelevant to its classification as an urban legend.

For example, the tale about a student who mistakes a math problem thought to be unsolvable for a homework assignment and solves it is an urban legend, even though something very similar did once happen in real life. The tale is still an urban legend, however, because over the years many of its details (i.e., when it happened, where it happened, the identity of the student, the reaction of the student's instructor) have changed as it has spread.
It's a cool site they even have a Disney section that includes the ones you were talking about.

Tokka-B 04-30-2003 04:52 PM

Oh interesting...I should give that a look sometime... :)

Tetsu Deinonychus 04-30-2003 04:53 PM

Yeah, it's cool!

HorseTechie 04-30-2003 07:01 PM

Yeah.. Vanilla Coke was a cool idea. Even that Lemon Coke experiment.


But Blue Pepsi... WTF? That stuff was nasty.

Cascadia 04-30-2003 10:00 PM

Coke in other countries, such as Spain and France, are sweeter than it is for in the United States. I like coke here but International coke has a better taste than American coke.

The Stryker 04-30-2003 10:25 PM

I would answer but im hopped up on caffine

BYE!

*bounces away*

Leo656 04-30-2003 10:44 PM

I prefer Coke, but I drink Pepsi sometimes. Pepsi seems to make me a little less hyper. ((shrug)). I also happen to like Vanilla Coke, but I've been in a funk for ten years ever seince they got rid of Crystal Pepsi. :(

As far as the Disney "urban legends", animators are historically a bunch of perverts, especially those associated with Disney. Though not entirely a Disney flick, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" was the source of a lotta naughty stuff going down. There was supposedly one frame where Jessica Rabbit flashed her hooters. I've never seen it anywhere and I'm under the impression that it *may* have been caught and taken out before the flick was released, but I'm not sure. One that was left in at least for a little while though was a frame where Jessica's dress flew up and you could see her... y'know. That one I have seen, so I can verify its existence. Other than those, the Powers That Be weren't too thrilled that some graffiti is clearly visible on a bathroom wall in Toontown that reads "For a hot time call Allison Wonderland", but apparently it wasn't *too* big a deal cuz they left it in.

The moral: Disney animators are a bunch of sickos. But talented ones, so we can forgive 'em.

I'm gonna have to check that site out Tetsu, something about "urban legends" fascinates me, maybe the fact that a lot of them actually do have some basis in fact...

BTW...BRING BACK CRYSTAL PEPSI!!! :evilgrin:

Tetsu Deinonychus 04-30-2003 10:51 PM

Yeah, I loved crystal Pepsi too.

Nyx 05-01-2003 12:41 AM

Cherry Pepsi rules all.

Will this involve running through the field in slow motion first?

GK Punk 05-01-2003 10:30 AM

Hmmm? Sure! Why not! and lots of cherry pepsi... yeah! LOTS of cherry pepsi! and some funions! and two large pizzas!!! and water... lots of water... yeah

HorseTechie 05-01-2003 11:40 AM

Damn.. now that old coke commercial is coming back to me... which would go nicely with running slowly through a field!

"I want the world to live in perfect hormony ... " errr, maybe I don't remember how that song went... :goofygri:

Tinselcat 05-01-2003 12:11 PM

i like cream soda better than either, but i'm a coke person. i find pepsi too sweet for my tastes, although if there's no coke to be found, i'll go for a pepsi.

Cascadia 05-01-2003 10:54 PM

My favorite verison of coke, besides International cokes, is Cherry Coke.
