Dr Awesomepage


I was going to make a blog post, out of fairness, chastizing Pibb Xtra for also being incorrect. (It's spelled with an "E", dorks) However, while googling for a picture to go with this article, I found this site:

http://www.minerva.unito.it/Chimica&industria/Dizionario/Supplementi02/AziendeAlimentari/cocacola3.htm

This is the single best collection of pdrepper and other similiar "doctor" sodas I have ever seen. And it is appalling how many of them are misspelled or improperly punctuated. Get with the program, soda makers! America* only wants to drink properly punctuated soda!

It's in Italian so I have NO IDEA what it says. If you speak Italian and the site insults your mother, I'm sorry for linking to it.

*Disclaimer: By "America", I pretty much just mean nerds in America. And often not even them.

Just like that one time

Remember that one time where we pissed off Evan by editing this one comment to have bad grammar like one of the posts earlier that day? And he took away our editing rights? Something about more better or something. Whatever. In any case, this commercial that I just saw reminds me of that:

Good times... Good times. If we had the power to edit each other's posts again I'd say edit the hell out of this one. Whaddya say Evan? (Maybe my feeble attempt to restore editing powers will work).


P.S. EVAN IS A GOD AND I TOTALLY RESPECT HIS DECISION TO REVOKE ADMIN RIGHTS AND I KNOW THAT MOSTFUNNEREST ISN'T A WORD. NOTHING GOOD CAN COME FROM PEOPLE EDITING EACH OTHERS POSTS.

(12/22/09 edit)P.P.S. YO EVAN I'M REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU, I'MMA LET YOU FINISH BUT THAT ONE POST HAD THE BEST EDITS OF ALL TIME.

The Soda Saga, Pt 2


The new Mountain Dew logo is just plain stupid. Mainly because it is no longer "Mountain Dew", it is now "Mtn Dew". Apparently nobody told them that the abbreviation for mountain is "Mt." and that "Mtn" with no period is not an abbreviation, but rather a random jumble of letters that sounds like "mitten".

So congrats, Mitten Dew! You have surpassed Pdrepper in stupidest soda name. I would boycott you if you weren't so delicious.

On the flip side: Mad props to "Dr. Shasta" for including a period in your name! You actually earned your degree.

This one goes out to the punctuation fans out there


I just realized that there's no period in "Dr Pepper". So it's not an abbreviation. Therefore it's not pronounced "Doctor Pepper", but rather "Drpepper". Although, with the size of the P, perhaps it's "pdrepper". Who can know?

Anyway, I'm still upset at the folk over at PDrepper for not getting my free PDrepper when Chinese Democracy came out. I failed to submit my stuff both over the internet and over the phone due to the extreme demand. I demand a free soda, or my two hours back.

Anyone reading this at PDrepper, feel free to post either in the comments. I also accept large amounts of cash.
