Coke Blak black market


Coca Cola has discontinued its Coke Blak line of sodas. Now people like me are forced to mix coffee and coke together in their basements to get their fix. I hope you're happy. Fascists!

3. They actually discontinued it last year.
I just decided to mix in a Coke with my coffee this afternoon, so it reminded me of that.

4. I can carry a grudge like it ain't nobody's business...
I'm still super pissed at ABC for cancelling Max Headroom. Asswipes.

5. That was such a damned good series
It really was just slightly ahead of its time in how the series depicted the media. Right down to the concept of news merely being just another form of entertainment.

6. I always appreciated the care they took
...to make certain no one pronounced it "block." :D

8. But with the strong "o" depicted, it's pronounced "Blake".
Is it supposed to be "black"?

7. I invented this accidentally
Mainly because i was too damn lazy to rinse out my coffee mug before switching over to Coke.

9. Good riddance. That stuff was nasty.
Coca-Cola with an acrid coffeepot-left-on-the-burner-too-long aftertaste. I can't imagine why it didn't catch on.

11. The bottle is cool as hell
I want one and will probably never get one. Bastards.

12. That was a nasty-ass drink.
Like someone mixed urine and Robitussin. :puke:

13. Blech! Did people drink that? Apparently not!
:puke:


Sorry though, but I guess they figured it didn't make much sense to just make it for you and that one other guy that drank it! :P

It was great in the afternoon at work to recharge myself until quitting time.

15. That stuff tasted like Coke with a cigarette butt crushed in it
I shan't miss it. What the hell were they thinking?

16. Yes, I'll agree it tasted pretty crappy.
But nonetheless, there was something intriguing about adding both coffee and coke together in the same bottle. The concept itself was too good to pass up; the taste was another issue.
