In China, we don't need no stinking polar bear! (http://www.putfile.com/media.php?n=coke_wow_commercial71)

/coke coming soon.

wtf alliance ganks

Zerg

The Huntress is a hacker! Multi-shot is supposed to hit 3 separate targets, her 3 arrows all hit the same target.

I see they are adequately attempting to represent the faction imbalance.

Because when you drink lots of coke and play video games all day you look like the people in the ad.

That was kind of funny. Cool to see advertisers take gaming seriously enough to partner well established brands with games.

SO.. where those Grrrl gamers?

"Grrrl?"

Wtf?  Is it 1993 again?

Coke Light >>>> Diet Coke

Coke light?

Don't mind him, he's still in Eurotrash mode.

It's like reading Haem without the outright fury and cursing. Oh, and different plumbing.

(http://users.skynet.be/J.Beever/images/coke.jpg) (http://users.skynet.be/J.Beever/pave.htm)

Seriously, I don't know why they don't make the Coke Light recipe for US consumption, because the taste is far superior to Diet Coke's.

Thank you, I now want to stab China directly in the face.

So what's the difference between Coke Light and Diet Coke?  Is Coke Lite 0 calorie, or just reduced calorie? If it's the latter it's probably what's sold here as C2. If it's the former, I'm willing to bet they don't use aspartame as the sweetener in Coke Lite. That crap makes anything it's put into taste like shit, in addition to the whole, "may cause seizures, migraines, memory loss, brain cancer, etc, etc" problems that are associated with it.

   In fact, I wonder if that's why they sell Coke Lite there.  Is aspartame banned in Europe? Hrmm.. a quick Google says it's banned in "All children's products" in Europe... so yeah, that'd be why.

Coke is marketing Diet Coke in the U.S. in two different forms (at least here in Chicago).  THere's the regular old diet coke.  Then there's one made with that Splenda stuff.  The other day at the grocery store, I saw a third type of coke that wasn't C2 or Coke Classic.  It's Coke Zero (which may be the same as Coke Lite in Europe).  I have no idea what makes it any different than Diet Coke.  From looking at the label, it's the exact same shit. 

EDIT -- according to the Wiki, Coke Zero has a blend of aspartame and some other ingredient.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coke_Zero

To me, Coke Lite tasted like a blend of Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi.  I avoid Diet Pepsi for a reason - it tastes like the urine of Satan.  Coke Lite was a tolerable substitute, but I wouldn't give it any accolades beyond that.

As someone who has given up drinking sodas on a regular basis (too much caffeine and sugar and carbonated water combined does horrible things to the urinary and digestive tracts), I can say that Coke Zero is a blessing. It tastes just like Coke with about .01% of the bad aftertaste that Diet Coke always had. Most of the time, I never notice the aftertaste.

I'm assuming the other ingredient besides Aspartame is the blood of young orphan boys who have been abused or something.

I had to fix your post for you. Obviously no one with a working tongue could possibly prefer Diet Coke to Diet Pepsi, so I assumed it was a typo.



Philistine.  :evil:

Have you had C2?  Is the Coke Zero just as good, worse, or better than C2?  I like the Splenda diet coke, but I don't trust sweeteners that haven't been around too long.  I have been hesitant to try the Coke Zero, but if it tastes just like Coke, then maybe it's worth a try.  C2 was a bit too much like half coke half diet coke (which I think is the actual mix).

C2 got the ax I think. Mostly because they just added more seltzer to half the syrup. You can make it yourself if you add a cup of seltzer to a regular coke, then divide it back in half.

I thought I read somewhere that Coke Zero is diet coke based off of the coca-cola classic recipe whereas Diet Coke is based off of the New Coke recipe.

I think I tried C2, and it wasn't all that much different from Diet Coke. Coke Zero really is almost indistinguishable from regular Coke, with only a hint of aftertaste.

How about you all just drink a fucking regular coke and quit being pussies about the calories?  At least sugar won't be banned by the FDA five years from now after they discover it makes babies grow tentacles.

Coca-Cola Classic doesn't have sugar. It has high-fructose corn syrup. I'd love some good ol' sugar Coca-Cola.

The fat little bastards could stack the shit out of some cups in PE with the extra tentacles.

Calories have nothing to do with it.  I just hate corn syrup.  It tastes like ass and makes your teeth feel sticky.  I don't see the point.

Regular coke is too sweet.

I like my diet. I drink it for the caffeine anyway when I have no time for coffee.

I bet you brew via a drip machine, right?  I have to spend more time making coffee, but I use a press.  Best damn thing ever.  It makes coffee that kicks the shit out of drip brew and it makes the time invested VERY worth it.  And really, how hard is it to boil water, dump it into the press, wait seven minutes and then pour?

EDIT -- Grabbed a Coke Zero at the store.  It is tasty as hell.  Now to mix it with bourbon to find out if it passes the Beam & Coke test.  (Speaking of which, Pepsi tastes even shittier when mixed with booze.  Therefore it is subpar compared to Coke products.)

Coke Zero is great.

And I don't even make my own coffee. I meant time to stop by a overpriced place and get some. I'm inbetween permanent dwellings right now, but when I get back out west, the press gets broken back out.

I couldn't tell you what the chemical differences are...

In Europe, I found Coke to be too...strong. Then I tried Coke Light, and it was good. It had a far superior taste to Diet Coke.

I have no idea what the differences are, beyond taste.

Considering I live in Atlanta, I probably should have had this Coke Zero thing by now, but perhaps they released it during my sabbatical. Was this like a recent thing?

It was released last month.

It's surprisingly good, I think. It's the best diet soda on the market.

If you can find some Passover Coca-Cola (probably have to wait till next year, though) it's made with beet sugar and/or cane sugar (check the label, it varies from bottler to bottler).

That sounds interesting. I hate the aftertaste of aspartame and saccharine and avoid diet drinks like the Plague but I'll have to give that stuff a try.

The combo of high fructose corn syrup, caffeine and carbonation is hell on both my digestive tract and my urinary tract, including the all-important prostate that I'm sure will one day grow cancerous and kill me. You'll have to forgive my pussification, since I choose comfort over an upset stomach and fire-spewing bladder.

Bitch.

Get some Dr. Pepper from the Dublin Dr. Pepper bottling plant (http://www.drpep.com/). They still use cane sugar in the drink.

I thought I was the only one who missed 'true' classic coke.  Maybe it's just because everyone else around here likes Pepsi.   Schild, you think Coke is too sweet.. man I can't imagine what Pepsi would do to you.

Pepsi comes across as sickly-sweet salty.  Can't stand it.  Sucked when I worked for their old Foods Systems company.

Pepsi is the choice of a new generation. Which is why the future is fucked.

Brilliant!

That's fantastic, Haemish.  I need a bumper sticker that says just that.

I've never checked this, but I've heard several times that the sugar content & mix of Pepsi is the same as semen. Puts that 'sweet/salty' taste poco notices, in a whole new light.

Excuse me but I must retch now.

Kinda makes you wonder what the mix of Mountain Dew resembles...

Antifreeze... or so the same rumors would have you believe.  That one's definatly not believable, though, since food colorings are somewhat different from industrial dyes.

Um, AMBROSIA?

A thread comes along that I might know something about, and I am too busy keeping The Machine running to post.  Looks like you have it covered, though.  The commercial reminds me of two things: the Final Fantasy IX commerical and how the US commericals suck ass.

C2 is/was pretty much half Diet Coke and half regular, near as I could tell.  Other than using the Atlanta Falcons color scheme, it was mostly useless.  Coke Zero tastes almost exactly like regular.  Doesn't matter too much to me, I stick to Dasani.

If you want some cane-sugar Coke, just go to Mexico.

Two things.  First:

How the fuck is it any of you people can stand diet soda?  In any form (I haven't tried Coke Zero yet, so I guess I'll hold judgment).  Diet coke is the worst fucking liquid I have ever tasted.  I was riding with a friend out in the hills one time when his truck completely died.  We had to walk back 5 miles over hilly terrain in 105 degree weather.  When we finally made it back to the shack on the ranch that had a phone, I was dieing of thirst.  Fairly certain dehydration was setting in.  There was no water or anything at the shack, but half a case of Diet Coke left.  I tried to drink it, but even then, I COULD NOT.  I managed to get two mouth fulls down before the flavor had me retching.  I ended up waiting another hour with my mouth feeling like it was full of ashes, before my step dad could drive out and pick us up, before I drank something real.  For fucks sake, it’s horrible.

Second:
Coke sucks.  There’s a reason it’s used as the base to mix with everything.  It tastes like shit on its own.  Drink Pepsi.



More seriously on the Coke/Pepsi issue, I actually don't mind Coke (I'm a fan of Cola in general), but I have always thought Pepsi was far superior to coke.  Coke tastes way too syrupy.  Feels like it coats your teeth with gunk.  Pepsi always seemed to have a much more crisp and clean flavor to me.

Colas suck.

Lemon Lime, bitches!

I'm telling you...Coke Light is different...it's the Shiznite.

Always refreshing, always Fresca.

Wanta Fanta, Dontcha Wanta?

Fanta = Nazi Coca Cola

According to the same wiki I linked above, and according to the Coke sites I've found that discuss Coke Lite, it is literally Diet Coke with a different name.  Don't feel bad, I tried Budweiser in Ireland and was convinced it was of better quality than domestic Bud. 

I think at some point we addressed semen and cola. This thread is over.

Well, Wiki is wrong, because I tried a Diet back here the day I got back....and it IS different.

...The difference Could be due to the fact that the Coke Light I had was usually from a glass bottle, but the Diet was from a plastic bottle.

My experience with the Coke Light was that it was just about the exact same as Diet Coke.

But I did sort of account for the plastic v. glass aspect as well.  It's why I go to the Mexican grocery store down the street to buy Coke in glass bottles.  Not only is it the oh so kickass cane sugar version, but it's in a glass bottle.  Glass > plastic > cans.

Coke in green glass bottles is really the only proper way to drink the stuff. Preferably just cold enough that ice crystals are forming on the bottle. Beer is the same way. I refuse to drink beer in a can, because that shit is just nasty.

Seriously, though, Diet Coke is the devil's urine. Coke Zero tastes nothing like it.

I think 5% of the fluid running through my body is Diet Coke.   I used to be an avid "NO DIET, NEVER" Coke drinker, but after years of sharing sodas with my wife, drinking her Diet Coke in the fridge, and generally starting to dislike the overly syrupy taste of Coke Classic, I transformed. 

I don't really like sodas as a rule now (prefer iced tea, lemonade, etc), but it's one of the very few that I'll drink nowadays.  That and Diet Dr. Pepper.  I do get blood curdling stares from fat chicks whenever I order a Diet Coke being rail thin and all.

I like soda from time to time only because of the "fizz and the burn". As far as I'm concerned, that's even more important than what a soda tastes like. The only reason why I prefer Coke and 7 Up to Pepsi and Mountain Dew is because the latter two are sugared down and flat.

I drink Fiji water.  It's the best.  I might move to Fiji because of the water.  They don't make bubbly Fiji water but if they did I would be all over it. 

You lot will argue anything but you can't argue Fiji water.

Fiji is surrounded by water- there is an inexhaustible supply!

I am addicted to this-

(http://www.glacierh20.com/images3/tahomasparklingorganic.jpg)

Coca-Cola manufactures Fresca and Fanta.  Dr. Pepper is Schweppes in North America, but Coca-Cola in most other places.

I'm drinking some Coke Zero as I write this. Still has the artificial sweetner taste to it but there's no strong artificial sweetner aftertaste. It's better than Diet Coke from what I recall but I still wouldn't drink it normally.

Coke Light is exactly the same as Diet Coke... Europeans just aren't stupid enough to fall for a cola with the word diet in its name.
(or light just holds the place on sugar free consumer products that diet does in the States... low on fat is also called light, just to confuse things)

And there's no reason to drink bottled water ever. Unless you live in Mexico or some other shithole without clean drinking water - it's just tap water with a nice label and a 10.000% markup.

More that 10% for Dasani.  But I get it for free.  At home, though?  Tap water.  It should be noted that Dasani does not claim to be distilled or anything, but it is certainly manufactured.

My fiancee drinks "filtered" water here at home.  It's run thru a Brita.  Just to prove a point, I haven't changed the filter in a looong time and it still tastes the same to her.  I am now convinced that thing is a placebo.

She also prefers diet coke to coke zero.  But then again, she used to be a white sox fan.

Oh, and this emoticon  :hello_kitty: scares the crap outta me.  At least add the Cthulu kitty one if you're gonna have that.

Diehard coke drinker here. Been trying to ween myself off of it as much as possible.  I haven't seen Coke Zero up here yet, but as much as possible I've switched to drinking C2. There's enough of a balance in C2 that I don't really taste the aspertime, which is good. Taste scale:

Coke > C2 > Safeway Select > Pepsi > Diet Pepsi > Diet Coke

Pepsi too me is just too sweet. Coke has a 'deeper" flavour if that makes any sense.

In my efforts to drink less pop, I've been switching over to this stuff:

(http://www.greatlowcarb.com/_getimage.php?s=images/products/fullimages/4219.jpg&w=180)

"Nestle Pure Life Zero Carb Zero Calories Naturally Fruit Flavoured Water Beverage 500g Bottle ORANGE SPLASH Flavour"

Lightly fruit flavoured, sweetened with Splenda. I can get a flat of 32 in four flavours at Costco for about $10. Three out of the four flavours are really good, strawbeery's a bit sweet though. And unlike real fruitjuice, it doesnt cost $4.50 for a jug.

I just tried Coke Zero and it's actually not too bad.  I've tried Diet Coke and Pepsi One and the aftertaste is too nasty.  Coke Zero doesn't have much of an aftertaste, but still, there is no mistaking it for full flavour soft drinks.  Unfortunately, I'm diabetic and have little choice.  Water suits me fine and Tropicana no sugar Lemonade is also pretty good.  Lemon goes a good way in reducing aftertaste.

I assume that lemon and lime variants of Coke Zero are going to come out eventually, since the are so many Diet Coke variants: regular, Splenda, vanilla, lemon, and lime, maybe more.

Try this.  Make tea with tap water in a white mug.  Make tea with Brita water in a white mug.  Notice anything different?

I definetly taste a difference between the 2.

Hm.  Maybe it's just me then.  I guess I'll have to try it after I've been quit smoking for a few weeks.  By then my sense of taste should be back to 100%

It really depends on your local water dept.  Some places the tap water is like something out of a horror/comedy others its as clean and clear as anything you get in the store.  In my experience the chage can litteraly happen when crossing the street.

Also there is something to do with your pipes and such.

What Murgos said.

As for 'something to do with your pipes.'  If you've got an older house with cast iron sewer pipes, chances are you've got galvanized steel water lines instead of copper or PVC. (Unless the pipes were redone in the last 10-15 years)  Galvanized rusts, so you wind-up with all kinds of lovely crap in your water.  If you've had a faucet sit for a while, then come out rusty/ muddy when the faucet is turned on, this is because of galvanized pipes.

IIRC, main supplies for cities are also galvanized, so unless they have a regular maintence program that replaces old/ worn out pipes, that's where you'll see the difference of 'this house is ok, this house sucks.' in water quality.

It really doesn't matter what the pipe material is made of, as far as water quality goes.  As long as there is sufficient water pressure, iron pipes are acceptable.  Otherwise, corrosion occurs when air enters the system due to disruption of service, or thru cavitation due to pumps, and the bits fall down and are flushed out when service is restored.  Water quality is determined more by the processes that the municipality chooses to treat the water rather than pipe material.  Most of the water lines we design are ductile iron pipes with copper or pvc service connections.

There is really only one carbonated beverage to drink, and that is the nectar of the gods.

Beer.

Good beer, like Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, not that stuff that people call beer but is really bottled chemicals.

Why drink coke when you could drink a beer?

Because some of us can't afford to get any larger, so beer isn't always a great option over a Diet soda.

I'm more of a wino than anything else.....But I agree, if you're going to drink beer, make it worth it.

As for the question "Why drink coke when you could drink a beer?"

The burn. I don't know why, but I need it from time to time. Plus, it's more quenching than a beer could ever be.

It is more like 'the job' instead of 'the burn' for me. I get all the free soda I can drink at the office; pretty sure they would frown on my guzzling suds all day, even if I provided it myself.

Yea, its the whole - it's not a good idea to drink 8-12 beer per day - thing. If you could make real beer, that tasted like real beer, and had zero cals and zero alchohol - that would be all I ever drank.  Hell, I'd brush my teeth in the stuff.

Well, maybe not.

Not that it's a good idea to drink 8-12 soda a day either.

Yeah, your kidneys would not be overly happy with you in either case, methinks.

See, that's one of the great things about beer.  Drink one, and you immediately want another.

And the 2 beer buzz - there's no finer feeling.  Cheap too.

But then you must stop.  More is a headache.

[Old age is when 3 beers is a headache]

If I can't drink beer, it's water.  Just plain.

I got in the habit of drinking diet soda at a relatively young age, because the tap water in our house would make me nauseous after a couple of glasses.  My mother refused to buy a filter, but she had no problem buying bottle after bottle of Diet Coke.  The water used in Diet Coke is filtered and much better than the stuff that came out of our tap, so...

I direct you to my earlier post of fruit infused bottled water.  Mainly because my body started telling me that 8-12 bottles of pop a day were not good for me.

I miss the highschool days of Super Big Gulps and downing 2 Litres of coke in one sitting.

I don't drink beer.  I don't even like it.  It tastes like ear wax.  I enjoy water but now and then I want something fizzy.  Either fizzy water or diet soda is pretty much all I can have without worry.

So you refuse to drink beer, but you eat ear wax?

Diet Coke has caffiene, doesn't caffiene dehydrate you?

Yes, that's right.

I have heard crazy things about British cuisine, so it doesn't really surprise me  :evil:

Yes, but the caffeine levels are low enough that you still get more water than you lose. 

In the Middle Ages, people would drink very light beer in place of water - the brewing process would kill the plague germs, but the end result didn't have enough alcohol to dehydrate you to death.  Same effect.

Awesome.  I always thought that a can of coke had about as much caffiene as a cup of tea, but the kick was from the sugar.  Thanks for the reinforcement.  Diet coke for my fizzy/easy cold drink, and insta coffee ftw.  Nescafe Tasters Choice, uh, Gold!

Makes sense to me.  You can guarantee pressure/ integrity in the main lines much more assuredly than you can house lines. I was just taking what I know about house lines and moving it over to mains.  Thanks for the info.

You should be able to find Caffeine-Free Diet Coke at some retail outlet near you.  Likely Wal-Mart.

Is the name Wal-mart really hyphenated?  Now that's class!

I have to admit that I don't know.  I have to think hard to avoid hyphenating Micro-Soft.  I think it is probably Wal*Mart, but I shill for a different corp and cannot be trusted.  I shop at Target.

That is probably right. The * is representative of the asshole of the employees and suppliers that Wal*Mart likes to fuck.

That's funny.  Somehow I never thought of that.  Fortunately, they only fuck suppliers smaller than them.

It's "Wal*Mart", where that asterisk is actually a five-pointed star. I prefer "Wal-Mart".

So that's pretty much every other supplier on the planet?

I still like that article that someone posted awhile back (Abagadro I believe) pointing out that because Walmart is so shitty to their employees, in the form of pay and benefits, each store actually costs taxpayers money to maintain.

Fuck that shit, why does Walmart even exist?

Because Target has a long standing rule of "no beating your children in the aisles"?

Edit: You're going down, monkey man.

Not to mention their draconian 'No shirt, No shoes, no dice" policy. Where else will the white trash get their Miracle Whip and their Winstons?

Almost. ;-)

Like Cuba or the Virgin Isles?

<mr hat>You go to hell. You go to hell and you die! </mr hat>  :cthulu:

Damn nitpicking writers.

I had to restrain myself to not point that out.

For the stockholders!  :hello_kitty_2:

It is also wet.

I just had Coke Zero. It's nice!

Phooey, try room temperature Diet Coke :)

No, it's not super-wonderful or anything, but I can almost guarantee nobody will swipe your stash. 

...Seriously, that's why I got into the habit of not refrigerating it.

Poly, you are a truly perverse human being.  Congrats.

My friend drinks warm TaB, which I was shocked was even on the shelves anymore.

(http://www.patjohnson.com/images/comedy_imgs/bobcat_goldthwait_web.jpg)

*Wishes that I could find a picture of this man with his favorite soda*

Is that you?

It's Bob Goldthwait. Highly caffientated standup comedian (at least he was in the 80's).

I look nothing like that. If I posted pictures of myself, the lawyers here would begin to stalk me.

Bobcat is married to Nikki Cox. Whom I have fair reason to believe is a fembot.

That is an interesting angle. I think he and Robin Williams shared an vacation home in Cartagena, if you get my drift.

Ah yes...Forgot about that.

Besides that though, there wasn't one act back then that Bob didn't mention Tab.

Bobcat – I need a Tab! I was promised full beverage service!

Bobcat - This has the exact same ingredients as a battery.

Bob ponders doing a Tab commercial (http://members.tripod.com/~JB5252/bobcat/tab.wav).

You worry so much over artificial sweetners and caffeine all the while missing the worse killer chemical of all human existence, Dihydrogen Monoxide.  Some of the more knowledgeable of you also know it as:
Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide

Or simply Hydric acid

Every day all of you do absolutely nothing to protect yourself, permit friends and family (children!) to expose themselves, and support politicians who routinely permit the more pernicious aspects of this chemical additive to permeate our lives and impregnate our culture.  For shame, f13 Community... for shame.

I blame religion.  But in the interests of public service I share with you this Quick Informational Reference (http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html):

What are some of the dangers associated with DHMO?
Each year, Dihydrogen Monoxide is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths and is a major contributor to millions upon millions of dollars in damage to property and the environment. Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:

• Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
• Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
• Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
• DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
• Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
• Contributes to soil erosion.
• Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
• Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
• Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
• Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
• Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere.
• Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.

 

Jesus, I hope Bush doesn't see this. We will have a "Not A Drop Left Behind" Act in nothing flat.

It's also a (the) universal solvent -- able to dissolve both acids and bases.

Shame on me? I'm just an innocent water and wine drinking kind of guy....Here to celebrate Bob Goldthwait.

I'll have a soda every once in a while and all that, but I'm not too crazy about it. Still, acting like it's something that's going to destroy the fabric of our culture is a little too Mary Baker Eddy for me.

And another goes down to Signe's "Is that XXX" joke.

Anywho, Bobcat being married to Nikki Coxx is a travesty.  It's even worse that he picked her up on the "Unhappily Ever After" set.  I take solace in the fact that  he looks like absolute shit, as anyone who's seen the CSI where he was on can attest.

But he's funny as hell.....And hated by many for putting a flame to Jay Leno's couch.

That counts for something, doesn't it?

Hmm. I thought Penn & Teller came up with the dihydrogen monoxide bit on their own. Bastards (unless the website is ripping them off).

Na, its been around in science nerd circles since at least the 70s, since one of my profs remembers it from when he was a lowly undergrad.

Scientists are always finding a way to tell me something is killing me. At this point, even if they are right, if they don't have a current fix, I'm not interested. And, "stop using/eating/taking this" without a viable substitute fails that test.

I especially hate those scientists who come up to me at breakfast and remind me that butter is better than the alternatives...again. They're like the Jehovah's Witnesses of rundown dirty diners. Assholes.

Wow, never had that one happen. Here's hoping  :lol:

Just point out that the number one cause of death is life.  Hey, statistics don't lie, or something...

I don't care, she is unfairly hot, and for this I feel slightly...slighted.

Well speaking from a statistic point of view, death is surely not a certainty.

More than half the humans ever born on this planet in the entire history of homo sapiens is still very much alive today (speaking in absolute numbers counting every birth and every death) - this could be interpreted to mean that your chance of ever dying is less than 50%... or something.

There are 3 kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics.

Yeah, but you could classify life as a terminal disease, since every case to date has ended in death, couldn't you?

It's all how you care to spin the numbers...

I say we ban cars. Just had another senior citizen plow into a building last week.

No!  I love cars!  Ban old people instead!

I always think about the penchant for old folks plowing into buildings and crowds when people start that shit about flying cars.

How about a flying car with no inspection or insurance and a bad engine? Flying cars are the worst idea evar.

Ban those inconvenient buildings, always getting in the way of a pleasantly senile afternoon's drive.

"Oak tree yer in my way..."

Skynyrd ++

The worst idea ever is to hand out licenses to idiots like it was fucking Drive-o-ween.  We already have this, so gimme my flying car.

RENEW! RENEW! RENEW! RENEW!

More attempts to date yourself Haem?

- Says the guy who has that movie sitting on his coffee table right now.

I tried dating myself, but my wife kept interrupting.

Very Steven Wright-ish.
