Title: Why I drink Dr. Pepper...
Post by: Nefarious on March 09, 2004, 12:18:51 PM
One reason is that it give's me my morning dose of Caffiene another reason could be this...

I woke up, did the regulars, stumbled to the fridge grabbed the DP, grabbed some ice, opened the cap and sat it down.

That is sweet...congrats.

I use Dr. Pepper for one thing...marinades.  The stuff tastes gross by itself.

I suppose you like Pepsi or Mounatin Poo;)

Pepsi makes me run to the toilet and Mountain Dew makes my Stomach Burn like the fires of hell.

Soda before lunch?

Good lord, man!  Do you know what you're doing?!  Have you no scruples? No moral fortitude?  What kind of man are you?

I'm a Dr Pepper fanatic myself.  Love the stuff.  Notice that there's no "." in the Dr.  :)  

Congrats on the new system!!

That Home entertainment center is gonna give you a MiniD butt. It'll be all flat from sitting and watching to many movies. Hemmoroids will began working their way from the leather cheerio up into your brain and you'll start argueing with strippers in a forum.  I highly suggest you just give it to me and go get some excercise instead.


Oh, by the way, soda pop is bad for you.

I am a Coke man myself, but on a recent trip to Jamaica I discovered that Pepsi has the whole island to it's self. They still use the old refillable deposit bottles and old bottle caps. After opening one I noticed something under the cap. It said GANJA. I never found out where to redeem it. :D

Did you know they use Coke to clean engines?  That's awesome stuff.

"Did you know they use Coke to clean engines? "

Myth!!!!  Just saw this one on Mythbusters last night.  The Coke did nothing to a greased up engine.  About the best use they found for it was polishing chrome.

That was a good epsiode.  It cleaned up a bumper, and a penny...that's it.  All the rest is myth

Coke is great for cleaning corrosion off of battery terminals... not sure I've ever heard of it being used for anything else under the hood.

That may be all coke is good for actually, certainly not fit to drink.... DO THE DEW!

i love Dr Pepper©

i did a paper on it in college (gotta love the edumication system huh)

sad thing is i dont drink it much anymore.

sugared soda makes you fat. i know... when i switched to diet i lost 10 pounds.

now i treat myself with one sweet sweet Dr about every couple weeks.









BTW ... nothing NOTHING gets rid of morning-hangover-mouth faster and better than the good ol Dr

Well I know that Coke or Dr Pepper will either stop or slow down the reaction of concrete hardening. It all has to do with the sugar in the drink mix. I am not sure on the how but I know some guys who carry several 2 liter bottles of the stuff in there concrete pump trucks and use it to slow the reaction catalyst in case the mixer trucks are slow getting to the job on a very hot day and they have to wait.

Its a hell of a lot cheaper than paying $7k-$10k for the pipes and elbows that I sell to these guys.

BTW there are only three soft drinks I will drink. Coca-Cola (for all you yankees we in the south only refer to it and all other sodas as Coke) Dr Pepper and Diet Dr Pepper.

Oh and congrats Nef....you bastage! :D

When I was in college, I dated a girl whose job it was to go to grocery stores and place the prize winning bottles.  They had a well thought out system to ensure that the prizes were won across the board by everyone, but we just followed her and bought the drinks she messed with(she never did know that we did this, BTW).  We lived for an entire summer off of the grocery promotion under those bottle caps, and I became a Pepsi drinker to boot!
