    So with the weather so damn great outside, I venture down the street to 7-11 for what would be my first Slurpee of the calendar year. And if I were in charge this 7-11 would be shut down for violation of my first law passed, because the fuckers didn't have coca-cola slurpees. Of course, it didn't matter anyway because all six slurpee flavors weren't frozen anyway, so there were NO slurpees to be found.

    So I had to settle, and boyyyyyyyy do I mean settle, for a big gulp of coke. Why is is that 7-11's fountain sodas are always flat? You contrast that with McDonalds which has the best coke you can get anywhere. Even coke can't bottle it as good as you can get it from McDonald's. And now this flat coke is giving me a tummy ache.

    Per the Coke plant salesman at church, McDonald's has the best Cokes because they run wide open with the syrup, the way you are supposed to, in order to achieve the best flavor. Places looking to pinch pennies will literally water down the product.

    Also, the dispenser nozzles have to be cleaned religiously. Not only does it keep the flavor from going bad, but dirty/clogged nozzles are a bug magnet.

    Too bad McDonald's fucks it up by putting their drinks in those hideous, flavor-killing, plastic cups.

    Fuck Coke anyway. Dr Pepper is where it's at.

    Mountain Dew Livewire Slurpees. Mmmmm.

    But when it comes to summer drinks, I prefer margaritas. :)

    The 2-liter bottles at those places are often out of date.

    Would not be surprised if the same wasn't true for the fountain drinks.
