Coca Cola Zero

andy · June 2006

This is surprisingly nice.

Admittedly, it tastes a little bit like a chemistry experiment, but it doesn't have the horrific acidic tang of coca cola vanilla, or the aspartame overload of diet coke.

David · June 2006

Drinking cola. Why would you when beer is readily available?

andy · June 2006

it was breakfast time.

David · June 2006

Orange juice. or _water_?

andy · June 2006

you're so bourgeois now you're a homeowner.

Liz · July 2006

No, he's just right.

David · July 2006

Saw an advert for this Cola last night. It was bad. I think they're trying to brand it a bit like a Coke for the lads. Probably world cup syndrome, but its seems to have captured Andy's male bonding urges.

andy · July 2006

I don't drink this anymore.

I feel alienated by the branding.

I'm back to five cups of tea and a fanta every day.

Liz · July 2006

I can't understand how any self respecting man - no, person - would want to drink this after having seen the shit campaign they've put together.

Tap water is cheaper, nicer, and less condescendingly marketed.

Cola zero is dreadful. Haven't seen the advert but it tastes disgusting. What is the point of drinking coke without any of the good bits?

David · August 2006

What good bits? If you mean the sugar,[Vote Waffle](http://www.stroudgreen.org/comments.php?DiscussionID=159&page=1)

Now who's the lobbyist? Cynical hypocrisy that is.

David · August 2006

The first sign that you're policies aren't working is to try and accuse the opposition of hypocrisy.

andy · August 2006

Hypocrisy is saying one thread: _"Andy, you're such the politician, voting hadn't even started and you're canvassing for support."_ and in another saying _"Vote Waffle"_

David · August 2006

Voting had started by then. Stop trying to Paxman me. Also, in line with proper playground rules, I'm exempt as _you started it._

andy · August 2006

So the hypocrisy was the _timing_ of the lobbying? Hardly believable, but also wrong. My post was made at the start of the voting. It started when the post went up. So I ask you again - [Did you threaten to overrule him?](

David · August 2006

That was a brilliant example of TV interviewing technique, and probably what scared you off London Tonight. Sorry to be pedantic here, but you and I both know you had to post first then allocate the Poll to the post. By definition, you canvassed before voting, and as previously stated, _you started it_, which trumps everything. Paxmaning doesn't work in the playground.

Lucy · August 2006

have voted against waffle. Sorry david but the gooeyness factor doesn't cut if for me. Having read this post though I'm now off to get some real coke to cure my hangover.

On another unrelated matter, I appear to have put a picture next to my posts. How do you change your mind and get rid of it - if only because the picture is ten years old!

Howdy, Stranger!
