Greetings and palpitations all you caffeinds, a new black death arrives from Mountain

[frankthedm]

coffee is good. I have a triple cup of instant to start my day at noon.

I am alergic to citrus fruit,but I think of my gaming group as my own pack of big, fuzzy lab rats. This is going to be fun.

I drink 2-4 cups of wonderful home-roasted coffee every day. Mountain Dew sucks. Vanilla Coke and root beer are the sodas for me.

Pitch black & orange sherbert make a great float.

So, tried Pitch Black on Friday. Boy, that was nasty. I took four separate sips, and it got worse each time. I normally like grape stuff, but this was...wrong.

I normally tolerate regular Dew as a poor replacement for Nature's Perfect Drink, Mello Yello, which is so hard to find in the DC area, I have to special order it from the Total Beverage. Grrr...

I have to say I'm one of those odd geek/gamers that didn't get hooked on 'Dew. Generally was a straight Coke man, or Dr Pepper. Now it's only coffee or Diet Coke (or "Cola Light' as it's referred to here).

EDIT: DOH! I completely forgot about root beer. Love it to death, though it's often not available outside the US. Whenever I visit one of my first purchases is either a 2-liter bottle or a 24 pack of A&W Diet Root Beer (and A&W Diet Cream Soda). I'm visiting home in a couple of weeks...


Slightly surprising that alchohol hasn't entered this conversation...

gaming, strange as it may sound, there's this kiwi raspberry juice my group was addicted to. that and whatever random soda was around. usually root beer and/or orange soda.

for my caffeine fix, I drink, and eat, tea. and I like coffee too.

Meh. It'll never replace the Purple Cow in my heart

Odd, Mello Yello seems relatively common around here. I usually treat regular Mt. Dew and Mello Yello as more or less interchangeable, with a slight preference for the Dew.

That's because everyone outside the US thinks Root Beer tastes like medicine. No, seriously! I grew up as a bit of a root beer fanatic, but have since somewhat migrated onwards. I still like it, but it's rarely my first choice. I love a good cream soda, though.

Nah, there's another thread already going on about that.
