"pepsi?"

"partial credit!"

I had a boss one time who took an odd minimalist approach to signing the going away cards employees got when they left the firm (which seemed to be all the time). Instead of saying "best wishes" or "good luck" or "drop dead, slacker," he'd just write the person's name and an exclamation point. "Sarah!" or "Tom!" Sometimes Coke ads seem that way.

They used to have ones that say "DRINK coca cola", but i don't take well to orders, so I stopped drinking it.

Obviously with their sales hurting from the lack of my consumption of coke, they then changed the slogan to "ENJOY coca cola", but i don't take well to orders, so now i drink it but hate every moment of it.

*I order bourbon and coke...as it's being poured I notice on the bar soda gun the 'Pepsi' logo scrawled across the top...*

"BLASPHEMY!"

you can sue them for that. In fact i think coca cola used to (and may still do) send out SPIES to go round ordering cokes, and then rap the bar/shop if they serve pepsi (as COKE is a trademark of coca cola).

"Charlie" still isn't copyrighted i think.

I can't stomach the filthy muck, I'm afraid.

This is classic, I must do this next time I sign a card.

Things go better with coke. Things? Bits of string and twigs? Genocide? Electric toenail clippers? Huh?

Jack Daniels is much better with Coke.

I'd like to teach the world to sing...
