Hey, I just noticed eeb the bus stand has some sort of PepsiCo/Nobama ad! From here, it looks like “FO SHO!” What in hell is THAT??

[GOP_Lady]

I noticed the “FO SHO,” too, when I posted it here.

I’m thinking it could be slang for, “for sure.”

That’s a parking garage that the signs are hanging from.

I've been needing to give up Mountain Dew for a long time now. I deep-sixed the Obamatard boyfriend, now it's the Dew... i have a feeling the Dew is going to be more difficult, seeing as how I suspect they put highly addictive liquid crack cocaine in it...

Caution: I might be crabby for a while.

Good for yuo on dumping the Obamatard boyfriend!

I can not tolerate Obamatard acquaintances anymore - I used to try to reason with them - but there’s no getting through to them - I now need to walk away shaking my head.
“Have fun with that ‘obama’ thing”

Good luck with the MountainDew-jones.
There has to be a ‘Coke’ alternative - may be a ‘MDino’, like a ‘Rino’ - but we still, for now, have free choice...lol

Pepsi responds to my complaint about their new ad campaign:

“In marketing our products, we always aim to convey a message of youthful spirit and optimism. As you can imagine, we try to make full use of events and venues from which we can reach the largest number of potential consumers with our message. For instance, Pepsi was widely visible at the New Year’s Eve celebrations in New York’s Times Square, and we currently are gearing up for our much-anticipated television advertising during the Super Bowl.

The inauguration of a president is another such event that engages a large number of people, both attending in Washington, D.C. as well as watching from living rooms around the world.

Our advertising initiatives coinciding with the inauguration reflect the hope shared by Americans of all political persuasions that our new president will succeed in meeting the serious challenges facing our country and our world. I can assure you that our marketing focus is set on reaching cons umers to highlight our portfolio of beverages and snacks, and not the agenda of any political party.

Thanks for allowing us to share this information with you.”

Hopefully everyone here is avoiding Pepsi products. I know I am. If I go somewhere and they say Pepsi , no Coke, then I ask for water.

[dfwgator]

If I go somewhere and they say Pepsi , no Coke, then I ask for water.

I'd stay away from the Olympia Cafe, then.

[Beloved Levinite]

Agreed. I will NEVER buy another Pepsi & will try to avoid their products whenever possible.

Good job, curth.
