This is exactly the kind of scientific inquiry that is going to put America back on top.
- #I had one of these the other day. I might review it, might not. The point I want to make is that the website really stresses me out for some reason. I don't know if it's the confusing flash interface or the ultra-hype techno assault, but the panic attacks that ensue definitely provide accurate synaesthesia for the effects of the beverage.
- #Some Russian variations on the new Pepsi logo.
- #Josh I know you were ready to make the new Coke designs your special girlfriend for a while back there, so I wondered if you had opinions on the new Pepsi stuff they've been talking about at Brand New. Like here and here and here.
It's interesting that Pepsi is trying to reinvent their look by pushing it in new and different directions, whereas Coke seems to be simplifying and looking backward. What does it all mean, I wonder.
- #Sweet Mary McCree, this drink sounds amazing. Fresca + Tequila? I will buy.
- #I still do not believe for a second that Chinese Democracy is actually going to appear on November 25th, BUT I like the idea of a free Dr Pepper being the main result of all of Axl's hard work. BUT it sounds like you will have to register on their website and give them your mailing address so they can send you a free soda coupon and then resell your info to various Russian & Nigerian marketing concerns, which is a total hassle and not worth it; you might as well just pay the dollar or whatever. Because anyway you know the guy at the Circle K is going to look at the coupon and be like Dude what the hell is this, and you'll have to explain about the Chinese Democracy connection, and he'll look at you all weird, because this guy is like 20, he doesn't doesn't know who the fuck GNFNR is, he doesn't even know what a democracy is. Oh snap yes I did just go there. Anyways what was I saying. Josh have you seen that they're selling Dr Pepper in football-shaped bottles these days? They are so cute but maybe too difficult to hold, I have the small hands of a delicate woman.

What person in their right mind would buy such a bottle of water? I’m pretty sure the company will be giving away the drink at movie premieres and sending ditzy Paris Hilton a few cases to carry around for starters.
If you ever wanted to be like your favorite rapper and drink Crystal (pronounced cris-TAL) but don’t have the stomach for alcohol then Bling Beverages might have an answer for you. Bling Beverages LLC has developed Bling H2O, a new drinking water tailor for the super-rich consumer. The bottles of water come in frosted and corked bottles with genuine Swarovski crystals that spell out the “Bling� in Bling H2O on the bottle. The creator of the water commented that “Bling H2O is to bottled water what Rolls Royce is to automobiles; a premium product with premium packaging that merits a premium price. Bling is a stand-alone beverage as well as the perfect compliment to your favorite cocktail.�

This is right up there with dying your poodle pink. Some people have way too much time and money on their hands. I would laugh if, in five years, they found out the makers of Bling H2O were using tap water to fill their pretty bottles.
