Whats Your Poison

Ruby Red Grapefruit juice.

Jones Soda crushed melon or Vanilla Coke...mmmm....

What the crap is a Jones Soda?

Jones Soda is some good stuff janey, its like pop, but not, its weird stuff man with awesome labels, its the only orporate art (the label) that i consider to be some what art

It's a Canadian soda, they sell a lot of it here. All of the labels have photos people send in to the pop company and all the caps have fortune cookie fortunes under them. They make flavors like crushed melon, strawberry lime, cream soda, bubble gum, orange and cream, etc. I feel bad for you that your life is deprived of Jones Soda.

I don't usually drink soft drinks though, so I wouldn't really notice whether or not we had it.

its canadian??? well ya learn soemthing new eveyday! harvard here i come!

i'm addicted to orange juice..

other beverages i consume on a reasonably regular basis; water, coffee, hot cocoa, milk, grapefruit juice, grape juice, and apple juice.

Oh yes. It is Canadian.

Good things that came out of Canada:
1. Our Lady Peace
2. Jones Soda

COFFEE'S EVIL!!!! *in rico suave voice* as most of you ladies know i have a.d.d.* well i had a freackin iced cappacion one night to keep awake cause we were movin in the middle of the night, i couldnt stop fucking talkin man, i must of talked about every single conspiracy theory out there to my cousin, than did a 10 m inute puppet play with my hands (half way thru my cuz left and fell asleep on the couch) and then found some pills on the ground and talked about all the posibilities they could be

and jane thanks for the knox aprreciation post

thats lovely that you were doing puppet plays and other things you would not otherwise be doing without coffee.. heh.

[whispers as to not offend bottle of frappuchino very nearby] yes, coffee is an evil thing. .. which is why i suppose its so damn tasty.

man give a an a.d.d. kid a frickin capacino, wholly shit thats cruel, i couldnt stop all night. half way thru everyone got a headache form me talkin and i had to talk to myself

janester, there's a canadian appreciation thread, my love!

if i'm not drinking water or coffee, i'm drinking some sort of alcohol. since those two are boring, i'll comment on my favorite "poisons"

wine. i'm a total wine snob, but it's a rare occasion to meet a cab sav i didn't like. zins and chards are a different story.
beer. if i'm going to drink a beer, i know what i'm getting into in terms of calories, so get that lite shit outta my face. i loves me a bass, guinness, sierra nevada, fat tire, blue moon, pete's, sam adams (esp. the octoberfest), lots of microbrews, and of course, a PA favorite, yuengling.
liquor. eh...i'll drink whatever ya got. i'm not picky that way. but, if i'm trying to be cool (ha!) i'll get a vodka tonic.
blender drinks. on a hot summer day by the pool, there's nothin' finer.

ya he drank too much, i didnt know you could actually OD on it, but i did know that drinkin too much of it can probably fuck ya up, like ahving too much in the bladder and not expelling nay of it

I really miss Blueberry Slushies.
You know, with the little dog-beagle for it's mascot?

we still have those

Goddamn you, Canuck.

yeah water in excess fucks you up cuz it 'washes' all the salts and stuff out of you.

i LOVE coffee, it's actually probably one of my favourite things in the world

im a big water drinker too cuz my skin is shit, bit i love pineapple, mango or passion fruit juice when i can get it. i HATE fizzy drinks/soda. i dunno why/ ooh except fanta or orange tango

aaand my fave alcoholic drinks are probably any alco-pops (i dont care, i'm allowed - i'm a girl and they taste nice!) and bacardi and diet coke yummmm

Your skin is shit?
I love black girls.

1) I'm not black. or white for that matter so shuttit.

2) i've got crap teenage skin. well not really crap just the occasional spot but water makes it soft (that doesnt make any sense but i know what i mean)

Cream of Som Yung-Guy

To clarify something for the Jones Soda folks, while there may be some kind of factory in Canada I suppose, I know that I live about 15 minutes away from the Jones Soda Co. right here in Seattle, so I think that's where it's made. Could be wrong though. Maybe this is just a distributor or something.
As for poisons, I drink a lot of water, milk when it's available. Cranberry, Orange, and the occasional grape juice is good. Sometimes if I'm feeling *wild* I'll get some of that crazy juice with like 3 types of messed up fruit that I've never heard of. Those are always fun. Tea up the wazzu. I've got tons of tea, my favorite being mint iced tea.
Alcohol, I'd have to say that Moe's list was sounding pretty good, but I've yet to have a good wine. Then again, I'm in college and nobody buys good wine. They buy cheap wine that's gonna fuck 'em up quick, so stealing a swig has never done me good. Beers, I'm a fan of Guinness, Fat Tire (and just about anything else by the Belgium Brewing Co.), Mississippi Mud (if only for the packaging), Alaskan Amber, assorted microbrews. I was just talking last night with a friend how we're beer snobs compared to the average college kid. It's a rare occasion where we'll down a pabst, or a bud or something other kids'll jump on, despite it's shitness. Hard A, whiskey, scotch, or bourbon have treated me alright, but really it doesn't matter too much. Jagermeister's alright too, especially with a bit of water. It reminds me of Licorice Spice Iced Tea. Yummy.

oo..you mentioned tea.. raspberry iced tea, and that liptons iced green tea is sooooo good.. [runs to minifridge to retrieve some tea]

Espresso drinks. And I'm not gay, I just work in a coffee bar.

pepsi, amaretto sour, whiskey, water.

It says product of Canada right on the Jones soda bottle. I tend to believe the bottle, since it seems to be the ultimate authority. The bottle would not lie to me.

Urine.
It's poison, man.

Actually, it's sterile. You can drink it.
And Jane, I must be wrong, but I do know that there's a Jones Soda Co. building 15 min. from my place that gives away free stuff every friday or something like that. You can send in your pictures and they print 'em on the labels, too.

i don't know HOW you guys can drink herbal/fruit teas. they just taste of flowers and meadows to me

the most herbal i go is lemon flavour green tea (yeh i know it's not herbal/fruit)

i dont drink tea to begin with

i dont know why anyone drinks anythign warm, you drink to be refreshed, warm drinks dont refresh!

What if you're freezing your ass off? That's a prime time to have a piping hot beverage. Then there's right before you go to bed to make you all sleepy, or first thing in the morning to wake you up, or just in the afternoon to make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. For the most part I try to stay away from the fruity/herbal teas and stick mostly with the black teas. Herbal comes in handy though when it comes to bedtime.

I know you can send in your photos, it says that on the bottle, but I'm just too lazy to do it. But now I am so on the next plane to Seattle.

Ya big snob.

Seriously. Way to classy for me.

Me as well. Rents and I are soda drinking post-adolescent hopeless romantics with no taste.

Although it might be beneficial to the IRC if we built up a good snooty case of wine to take with us.

This is true. Wine would definitely come in handy, though I don't know the first thing about wine. All I've experienced is the cheap shite like Franzia. *shudders*

I could fake it, I think. All of my family are wine snobs, and I've, y'know, been to Bordeux and stuff. That automatically makes me qualified to know more about wine than the average 18 year old who's shipping off to a deserted island.

Sweet. So we'll just raid your folks' wine cellar before we go. Eeeeexcellent.

And you're a beer snob! I'm sure that's a marketable skill. Right?!

Somewhat. It's more that I'm a beer snob in comparison with your average college student. And I don't know that that'll help us out too much with the IRC. Beer isn't too romantic. I mean, just the word beer sounds so...so...well, just say it nice and slow. Beeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. It sounds like Homer Simpson. Not exactly at the top of my romantic list.

True, true. But, on the other hand, everything is far more romantic when you're drunk.

Or so I've been told...*cough*

This can be true. Sometimes. I turn into one of those lovey-dovey drunks who feels the need to hug everybody in the room. Not sure how romantic that is.

snobbishness has nothing to do with it, for crying out loud. it's about opportunity, choices and informed decisions. having a trust funds helps, sure, but come on already.
