Actually when I am in the mood for it, Vanilla Coke with Crown Royal mixed about half and half in a 32 oz glass goes down great. And after 2 or 3 of them you dont feel much anymore.

Hey nobody's perfect... besides he didn't ask for Madison Avenue to jump on his stuff. Listen to Your Breaking My Heart or Ambush by Harry Nilsson, you might stop blaming him at least.

Vanilla coke is gross, lime coke is gross.

Regular coke is gross.

Dr Pepper, and Pepsi all the way.

you DO know pepsi with lemon came out first right?

"pepsi twist" has been on the market for almost 2 years

then coke with lemon, flop, then lime, over 1.5 years ago.

this is a "renewed" marketing campaign for coke, the backlash from the last the avtually made a press release about it was so bad

Raptor · « **Reply #23 on:** April 14, 2005, 08:11:23 PM »

ah yes, forgot all about pepsi twist, now the ozzy commercial is coming back to me.

I would never cut my stuff with lime

Perhaps you guys are too young to remember what commercials were like before they started cherrypicking rock songs.

Granted it's starting to wear thin now, but it's nothing like the ultra lameness ad agencies used to spew.

As for the Lime Coke, it's great with a Crown.

I always thought it was Put the LIme in the coconut...guess I was right. Or did Coke change the lyrics to say what I posted above?

Yeah.. you were. I thought you posted an original thought, which I thought was rather clever.. I just saw the commercial for the first time 10 minutes ago. ( If the ad doesn't play on the Discovery channel or the History Channel , there's very little chance I'll see it. )

I feel so ashamed..

35 years ago when I was a little tike I used to take the lemons off my parents Friday fish fry at a resturant and squeeze them into my coke cuz I thought it tasted cool. After my mother said it looked gross I would take the limes from my fathers gin and tonic and squeeze them into my coke cuz it was just as good. If I knew now what I certainly didn't know then I probably could be rubbing elbows with Bill Gates.

Yet another story of my life.

I liked the clear pepsi that was out a while back. Had a wang to it, but it was good in my opinion.
