indeedy.

diet, caffine free, coke..wtf? its just coloured carbonated water isnt it?

i ned that rush followed by the sensation of layers of enamel being stripped from my teeth and my stomach bloating up with the fizzyness.

pah
 
I think the adverts are fucking patronising - 'it's like having a girlfriend without the five year plan' -OH FUCK OFF, YOU WANKERS :mad:

Give me the full fat delight of Fentimans Curiousity Cola any day.
 
Girls are supposed to have five year plans for relationships, so I'm lead to believe by various publications such as Comso etc. Plan goes something like this:

Year 0: Get chap
Year 1: Move in together
Year 2: Get engaged
Year 3: Get married
Year 4/5: Have baby

Obviously this doesn't fit in with what Coke Zero chap wants - he just wants a girlfriend without the five year plan.

I've never had a five year plan - too many external variables, bound to fail.

Fuck, I have enough problems filling out career five year plans, let alone anything else. My plan always goes along the lines of 'get job. keep job until bored/unchallenged/sacked. Get new job'
 
I've heard of that stuff, but I'm not entirely sure I've ever known anyone who's followed one. Definitely not me.

A friend of mine who is much older, wiser and better travelled than me once told me that "life is what you miss whilst you sit around planning it" or words to that effect...

And I don't like Coke anyway (I'll drink it at a real thirsty push, though).

I'd love a girlfriend with a 5 year plan, no wait i'd just love a girlfriend.

I was doing really well for a bit then.

Year 0:Get chap, move in together, get engaged.
Year 2:Get married.

It's now year 4/5 and there's no sign of babies.

Anyway Zero is shite, it tastes like pepsi max and pepsi max is shite.
I try not to drink too much fizzy but I do always have diet coke in my drawer for sleepy work moments.
 
My five year plan :

0 years - get man, move in, get married
1 year - live happily ever after

Five year plan, what a load of Cosmo bollocks!

I'd like to get back to drinking more organic cola, but since Sainsburys stopped selling it, I can only get it in H&B* and that's not exactly convenient.

*and other health food type shops, but I live nr Staines, ffs.

Shit I'm on year 4 and we've a daughter - my missus has a plan! (I suppose one of us has to).
 
Shit you lot are quick arent you?! I'm nearly in year 5 and we've only just moved in!

Anyway, coke zero = battery acid+vinegar
 
Coke is gut rot, great for cleaning the toilet though. If you want to get your rim sparking clean, put some coke in a spray can and squirt it up there, leave it for half an hour then scrub off.

It's the most obvious marketing campaign going. It's Diet coke disguised under another name. So men, do you feel it is a slight on your masculinity if you buy Diet coke? Does the black and red label on coke zero make you feel more butch? Men don't go on diets!! etc.

Or are Coca Cola just being patronising bumheads?
I can't believe they didn't do this sooner - when Pepsi came out with Pepsi Max. It's Max, it's Manly. "Diet"'s for nancy boys. But it tastes much nicer, and doesn't fuck up your teeth so bad. I'm glad cos I'll now be able to order vodka and coke zero in bars now, and not look like a poofter!

Yeah, makes sense. It wasn't him, I'm afraid. First time I heard it, though.

:)
 
God that Bloke Coke ad is really winding me up now. More than the Frosties advert!

'like workmates without the work' :mad:

I'm in love. Will you marry me? :cool:


Oh yeah, the Coke thing. I had a free sample this morning, they were giving them away outside the station. Tastes like warm coke. None of my teeth have fallen out and I don't think my attention span has been adversely OOH LOOK FREE COKE!!!
 
I love the new Pepsi Max adverts at the moment. They've got a little scale on the bottom where "Zero" means standing around in the rain not getting any lifts, and "Max" means the suggestion of some sex with Eva Longoria. Subliminal advertising, anyone? :D
