Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 221 | "To appease us we would like a sacrifice, remove the product from all store shelves before more consumer related damage is done and we become so disillusioned that we give up on capitalism all together and revert to archaic system of barter, before one more innocent child’s perspective of what’s “good”, “right”, and “tasty” is so severely tainted that he gives up hope on the whole soft drink industry, before one more thirsty, parched construction worker takes a swig of this repugnant liquid becoming so distracted he forgets rivet a support beam and a whole building comes collapsing down months after it’s completion, before one more underpaid, under appreciated desk jock spends his last remaining pocket change after the house payment’s been made and liquid gold (gas) is put into his car so he may perpetuate the cycle of survival only to find that he’s been ripped another one by big business thus leading to a mean spirited attitude at work, his dismissal from said job, and his active participation in being a drain to our economy through unemployment, before one more genuinely decent man who’s spent his life longing for someone he can overwhelm with his love and adoration brings home a vile bottle of this substance to his beloved only to thoroughly offend her and lead to an out and out rejection and an inevitable heartbreak which scars him for life and leaves him alone, a shut-in, who bathes only once a week." Learn to use periods, they make it easier to decipher the stupidity. That petition is ridiculous. Aside from being rambling and poorly written, there is no basis for their complaint. If your friend doesn't like a certain soda, tell him to go buy something he does like and stop bitching. Thats the great thing about our economic system: you can buy whatever the hell you want, and everyone else can do the same. Who does he think he is to tell the Coca-Cola company to pull one of their products...they certainly learned their lesson with New Coke and now do exceedingly thorough market research before releasing new products. If they have a new product, you can bet that there is a market for it. As for your friend, this about sums up my feelings: :nutshot:
