Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh.

[quote="Ward5x5";p="534656"]You should come to europe and have some Pepsi MAX, It's got more sugar than water in it.[/quote]
we had Pepsi MAX in canada a few years ago but it seemed to have faded in the way crystal pepsi did, and about the coke, ours has sugar in it too, i think it's the diet versions of pepsi and coke that get the subsitute sweeteners.

Our Diet Colas tend to use splenda and crap like that instead of corn syrup too, and ass the stuff that is supposedly bad for you, read the reports on that stuff, if I injected you with the percentages to your body weight that they did the lab rats just about anything would kill you.

Splenda is sugar chemically bonded to chlorine, and if I drink it with my coffee it makes me sick. The same thing happens when I drink green tea with spenda, so I try to avoid it.

Last time I looked at a pepsi max bottle, it said soft drink with sweeteners. Not that I drink the stuff. The closest I'll get to cola is a sip if I'm thirsty. Prefer fanta, orange juice and water.

i found out on a site that it would take 197 cans of pepsi or 214 cans of coke to kill me... (this is in a 24 hour period i believe) sad thing is.... at one point or another i have been just a little over 1/4 of the way there... gotta luv gaming nights lol

So Coca Cola is less lethal than Pepsi.

I quite like red bull. In small doses it does keep me up. Too much at once i kinda just doze off (caffeine overdose maybe?)
The most prominent i remember is trying 2 get one essay in. I bought a 10 pack of red bull to keep me going the night long. Around about 2 a.m. I'd had 8 cans, done almost no work, laid down 2 think for a minute, and fell asleep.
Got the essay done the next day in about an hour :S

I'd think Bawls could do that if you drank enough, it's a shame they baned Yellow Jackets, nothing like being up for a week and not noticing.

Are you really asking what Bawls taste like?

Lets put it this way, I have never heard somone sip a Bawls and exclaim how cool and refreshing it was. Nor have I ever seen someone drink one and fall asleep.
