Shortages

How on earth does a decent-sized “one-stop shop” run out of Coke? (As in Coca-Cola®, not coal or dodgy white powder from Columbia) Even more relevantly, how do two similar shops run out of Coke?

That’s what happened this morning – I went in to the normal place to pick up a couple of bottles, and nothing. No Coke, diet coke, coke zero, or even the diet stuff with lime. Plenty of Cherry coke, but that’s because it’s disgusting, and no fucker ever buys it.

So I nipped over the road to the other place. Same story.

How? The mind boggles.

    You drink Coke?! What’s up with that?

    I thought only kids and invalids drank soft drinks these days. Seriously dude. Coke? Not cool. 🙂

    Yep, I do. Bizarrely, it’s still the only drink/soft-drink where I actually *like* the taste.
    Mind you, the caffeine helps too.

    As for being “Not cool”, I refer you to the person still using the phrase “Dude”. 😛

    It’s the universe protecting you from yourself… the phosphates in coke strip calcium from your bones (amongst other bad things). Osteoporosis is going to be much bigger amongst men in the future.
