@Peachy or mods

can we do a "one has to go" for the poll today? I guess you can put "soda" instead of pepsi

Good thing we've already divorced again before I need to see your stance on all those beverages that aren't for kindergarteners.

No, but it did eliminate the other good option (Macho Nachos) at Del Taco. So it's chili cheese fries or bust.

Ohhh, I thought you were talking about Wienerschnitzel's chili fries. I used to live off those fries in my early 20s. I would have been very upset if they started using nacho cheese on them.

Far as I know, Kool-aid has only one use. I use the unsweetened lemon flavor to clean the dishwasher. Cheaper than buying citric acid cleaners.(use two small packs each time you run the washer. And you can buy the store brand to save a few pennies more.)
I should add here for those going to try this: make sure to use unsweetened Kool-aid and don't expect an immediate drastic change. It takes a while, but you will start to notice glasses getting less hazy, and such.

no, i'd never go that far. pepsi was made as a rival to coke though, like sprite and sierra mist. i can see having a favorite, but to say one is disgusting and one is great i just don't understand. they are sooo similar

i forget what the made to compete with dr. pepper.

Cherry Pepsi as it is cherry based flavor like DR. Pepper

It's okay for tinting your hair too if you're too broke to afford real hair color and really really need your hair to be a faded pink or green shade.

Mr. Pibb is a Pepper ripoff
but still good

I put Kool-Aid in a friend's shower head once. Got more enjoyment out of that than I ever did drinking the stuff.

 

[GTR]

i'll just chug my mug full of Cheerwine and be happy

 

[katarina]

There's a bazillion Dr. Pepper ripoffs. It's hilarious.

But Mr Pibb would be the one you're thinking of.

Holy **** I finally got through a half-hour project for someone that took an hour and a half and did what they wanted and just as I sat down to get back to turking I get an e-mail that they want to tweak it again because their directions weren't complete the first time.

FML and not the fun way.

Edit: I guess it's lucky I didn't have enough time to catch any HITs.

Also I need to send McDermott another message I guess.
