Not toooooooo Shabby

I actually like this drink and I think you should try it. After you try it please send me 10,000 dollars. (Just felt like giving that last part a go.) Amber thinks it tastes like butt. My clever response is of course... "Really? pleeeease. Butt doesn't taste anything like that." Yes, yes, I am a witty, witty man.

So, if you are tired of drinking cherry Robitussen and sprite (red bull), and you enjoy coffee and Coca Cola like moi, give this drink a go. Only 45 calories and its not even a diet drink. I brought it into class today and one of my students said that her dad designed the bottle or works with the guy who designs the bottle... or something. I told her that I could care less and to speak only when spoken to. No, I told her that was cool and that it must be nice to live in a mansion built with the money from a clever coke bottle design.

On a side note: I am really surprised that the church has not started manufacturing its own coffee or energy drinks. One can only imagine the advertising for such a thing. It might even surpass "This blood's for you" in ingenious wordplay.

Having never tried it myself, I'm still going to align myself with Amber and say, "Ew."

I blogged about this on my old blog 13 months ago when it was first announced (here) and then on my new blog the week it came out (here). I liked it, but haven't bought any since, mostly because of the price. Wikipedia claims it is being discontinued, but I can't find any other reference to that.

I bought them 10 for ten dollars at Kroger's last night! I LOVE it.

Also, what are you doing drinkin beer you dirty pagan???

Two things God hates:

Beer, and syncopated rhythm.

Cachinator, you obviously haven't read Genesis. Women aren't too bright. Siding with them can only mean two things. Women preachers and dirty fruit.

(just kiddn' baby, yeah I took out the trash and cleaned up my mess)

So, how many of those babies did you knock back before typing this rambling ode?

And while I have no idea (or desire) to know what your butt tastes like, I too say "Ew!"

10 for $10? That is a good deal. I'll have to try and find some tomorrow.

What verse is that? Proverbs 32:5? You forgot to finish it: "and yea, three are an abomination to Him, .... and movie theatres."

Glad you decided to add the extra oooooooo's. ;-)

I have to say, "Ew" as well, especially since I don't like coffee. Amber is a smart lady! Besides, I'm so addicted to Diet Mt. Dew, there's no room in my diet for any other drink.

I know it sounds weird. But if you think about it, Coffee and coke don't really taste all that different. I mean, its not like a Mac and cheese mixed with lemon pie.

But if you don't like coffee then... .... um...
what planet are you from?????? ; )

I'm from the Planet Texas, and I like my coffee in some other persons hands, far away from me. Give me tea - hot or iced - any day over that black mud people like to drink!

I have become more of a fan of Earl Grey with cream and honey and I am now and forever a rabid fan of Sweat tea, but I also see the beauty in the bean.

Heeeeeeyyyyyy. There's the name of a coffee shop.

Or a new Disney musical.

I bought this when it first came out on the recommendation of several friends and after not quite finishing one bottle the other three sat in my fridge forever....too sweet for me.

I don't really have anything new to contribute, I just had to say that Diet Mountain Dew sounds every bit as bad as Cokacoffee. I can't help but imagine that it is distilled from yellow snow in the Rockies. Blech.

Diet MD is about as grody-comody as they come. I do like MD. I liked it so much that I gained 20 pounds drinking 4 a day my freshman year of college. Talk about a bubble-butt-potion-extraordinaire.

Amy, did you go to Baylor?

Thanks for commenting! Welcome. However, too sweet? Awe come on... Maybe your aren't from the south. Or ain't from the South.

It tastes like something you want to not like, but for some reason have to.

Seth Ward said...

Thats because you have a negative attitude Brody. Geeze. Don't let that rockstar and the snow ruin your sunny Cali dispostion.

Blak is goooooood.

But I know what you mean. I almost felt forced to try it. It was like a ... i ... just... can't .... don't... want. ..to... bottle too intersting.... can't resist..

Amy said...

Hi Seth,

No didn't go to Baylor, I came to your site through Kat's. So I'm one of those random strangers who reads your blog.

Susanne said...

Come on, you guys...Diet Mt. Dew is the drink of the gods!!!! Don't start drinking it, though, because then you'll be addicted like I am. If I run out of the stuff I actually panic a bit. Scary.

Seth Ward said...

JUST BOUGHT TEN MORE FOR A DOLLAR!!!!

I will never drink Diet Mountain pee pee again. Nasty. However, my mother-in-law drinks them as well. You all would get along just dandy.

euphrony said...

10 fer a buck! Seth, what does that tell you about the quality of the drink? Hum?

Seth Ward said...

That my Kroger's card rocks!!!! Ha!
