Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Just Went Through the Entire Game Thread

You fuckers are all amazing. Shit was hilarious. @Mad_Son deserves a medal.

The best part was getting to the ten minute drive section of the thread.

    I can explain New Coke.

    Pepsi came out with the Pepsi Challenge. The Pepsi Challenge was a blind taste test between Coke and Pepsi. It was set up in grocery stores and other venues and they made TV, print, radio ads. It was a big fucking deal.

    Anyway, Pepsi was kicking Cokes ass in the blind taste tests and I think taking some market share. So Coke thought they would re-formulate, hence New Coke. Big back lash and they brought back the regular Coke and called it Coca-Cola Classic. Eventually New Coke sales dwindled and it went away. Coca-Cola Classic went back to being just plain old Coke or Coca-Cola.

    Here's the deal. The Pepsi Challenge had you take a small drink of Coke and a small drink of Pepsi. Pepsi easily wins this because it has a sweeter taste than Coke. But, no one just drinks a small sip of pop. You usually drink at least a 12 oz can and at that volume, Pepsi becomes too sweet for most adults.

    I grew up in a Pepsi house. Gramps worked for Pepsi. The Willamette Valley is a Pepsi stronghold. But, when I grew the fuck up and moved to Seattle and could choose my own fucking cola, I choose Coke. Fuck Pepsi.

    Was type 2 diabetes rampant in your household?
    Not that I know of.

    Why do you ask?

    Yeah I reread the game thread because of this one. Like, anyone who is a Husky fan intrinsically must be a nostalgic person, but that thread brought back fresh elation to me.

    I'm just glad that my innocent preference for Coke over Pepsi clearly shows how intelligent and classy I am.
