I'm having a really bad day. Now that it's after noon, what do you have that'll make me stop giving a shit?

Maybe you'd like an Earaser. AKA vodka red bull.
I'll have an apple juice though, seems like fall here today.

Dr Pepper...because I'm out

I'm sorry, every time I hear Dr. Pepper, I think of a really dumb joke the guys in college used to think was hilarious.


If anybody's pouring, I could use a nice pina colada.

 

[midwestyankee]

gin & tonic with a twist of lime please

I'll have one too. Ice the glass first please, and rub the rim with a lime. Then use only the coldest and freshest tonic water and plenty (did you hear me? I said plenty) of good gin.



Ahh....that's it, exactly.

 

[Sarojaede]

On second thought, skip the Scotch, I'll take a Chilton, extra lemon, rim the glass with salt.

 

[bobsgirl]

I'll take a gingerale, please.

I am disgustingly naive when it comes to liquor. The only experience I have with hard liquor is drinking southern Comfort out of the bottle in college. Led to an interesting night though. I think.

I'm assuming that would be frowned upon here.

 

[Sarojaede]

I have ginger ale and Southern Comfort. You could have them together, over ice. Although Jack Daniels is better with ginger ale than Southern Comfort is.

And, I am pretty sure I swigged Southern Comfort out of the bottle at least once in college.

If you're already drunk, which I was, you don't even feel the burn as it goes down.

The only time I've ever gotten into a discussion about erections in RL.

For the next two weeks the only alcohol I will be drinking is Pink Champagne.

The Pepsi Max story.

Pepsi Max debuted in Great Britain and Italy in April 1993. The rollout was expanded to Ireland the following September, and to France, the Netherlands and Australia the following December. By the end of 1994, Pepsi Max was sold in approximately twenty countries. By the end of 1995, that figure had more than doubled.

The product remained unavailable in the United States (PepsiCo's native market, and the largest consumer of carbonated soft drinks), where one of its principal ingredients had not yet been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The ingredient in question—acesulfame potassium—is combined with aspartame to provide the beverage's sweetness. Some people claim that this results in a better taste than that of other diet colas (most of which are sweetened with aspartame alone).

On 28 May 1994, England's Blackpool Pleasure Beach amusement park opened the Pepsi Max Big One steel roller coaster. At the time, the Pepsi-sponsored attraction was the world's tallest and fastest roller coaster. (Both records subsequently were broken elsewhere.)

In early 2005, Pepsi Max Twist (with added lemon-lime flavour) joined the UK and Australian product line.

In autumn 2005, Pepsi Max Punch was marketed in the UK for the festive season. Containing ginger and cinnamon, the product was similar in flavour to Pepsi Holiday Spice, a sugar-sweetened variety of Pepsi that was marketed in the U.S. one year earlier.

In late 2005 and early 2006, a coffee-flavoured variety was introduced in France, Finland, Ireland, Norway and the UK. Known as Pepsi Max Cappuccino (Pepsi Max Coffee Cino in the UK), the product is predated by the similar Pepsi Kona (briefly test-marketed in the U.S. in 1996) and Pepsi Tarik (available in Malaysia since 2005).

Pepsi Max was introduced to the South Korean market in mid-2006.

What sort of penance are you having to serve?

Thanks, I just wonder if the Yanks are using us as guinea pigs to see just how toxic acesulfame potassium really is. Not that I'm worried, I haven't found an artificial sweetener that I like yet.

According to our dear President, the experiment has only worked well on the French, and there it isn't working fast enough to suit him.
