Oh man, years ago, when it was still made and stocked here, Dr Pepper ran an "Under the cap" promotion that 1 out of every 2 bottles won you another free bottle.
I got six in a row.
I did that too!
Since you didn't have a cap you had to drink them all in a row.
6 Dr Peppers in a row apparently gives you killer diarrhoea.
pipe are you telling me you can't get dr. pepper in australia?
you've won nothing
The manufacture and distributing rights were owned by a local company for ages and ages and it was manufactured here you could get it just in regular stores
But they ditched it in the mid nineties I guess due to poor sales (lots of people here hate it)
there was a big dry patch where it was impossible to find
but now you don't have to look hard to find it. It's imported in bulk and sold in a lot of privately owned convenience stores and specialty candy stores which seem to be pretty popular lately.
Why just a couple of weeks ago I bought a 12 pack of cans for $15. For reference, 12 packs of locally produced coke in grocery stores are about $18-$20
goddamn
I knew things were expensive there but goddamn
I regularly see two 12 packs for $5

Don't be a silly goose, what if you had won a pink motorbike? Would you hate motorbikes?
When I was a little kid and had just outgrown my first bike that didn't have training wheels, I asked for a BMX for Christmas.
My Dad found this really nice BMX bike (A top of the range Mongoose with alloy frame, white six-spoke mag wheels and centerpull brakes) at a second-hand store in Guildford.
Only problem was, it was yellow, and he knows my favourite colour is blue.
So he tore it down, had everything bead blasted, and painted dark metallic blue.
Then my Mum and I were talking about bikes, and I said I wanted a black one.
My bike went back to the bead blasters, and got powdercoated glossy black.
That thing lasted for about 10 years. After a couple of sets of headset bearings, the headtube started to flog out, and eventually the frame cracked next to the headtube weld.
Loved that bike though. I must have done many thousands of kilometres on it.

Satans..... hints.....
Dr Pepper slurpees are fucking orgasm inducing.
I must've gone to that 7/11 like 20 times in 48 hours.
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

Holy fuck

Like my PAX "Contest"
Nobody has really done anything to enter and if you win, even if you don't go to PAX, you can prolly get a free game!
Also weee
When they presented it to me, it was hot pink with purple splashes of paint on it.
To this day
I hate bicycles.
