Thank god we got Jack Bauer.

I think we just found out the plot of season 7.

I just pictured dying on a battlefield and saying, "Tell...my wife that...I......love Coke."

Oh man.

Hopefully this only means coke though, because I totally would kick ass for Vanilla Coke especially since it JUST came back.

Nope. It means just about EVERYTHING.

Still, it remains an important ingredient in soft drink syrups, "hard" gummy candies like gumdrops, and in marshmallows. As the name implies, gum arabic is also found in chewing gums, where it acts as one of the many factors that result in the texture of the gum. For artists it is the traditional binder used in watercolor paint, and was used in photography for gum printing. Pharmaceuticals and cosmetics also use the gum, and it is used as a binder in pyrotechnic compositions. It is an important ingredient in shoe polish. It is also used often as a lickable adhesive on postage stamps and cigarette papers. Printers employ it to stop oxidation of aluminum printing plates in the interval between processing of the plate and its use on a printing press.

do u guys not see?! No coke means no coke and rum!!

Do you really call it coke & rum, instead of rum & coke? If so, that's just weird.

As far as this whole "cutting of the world's supply of soda" thing... I pretty sure I saw this on an episode of G.I. Joe when I was a kid. Sounds like the kind of plot Cobra Commander would come up with.

I welcome this news. Water is so much better in every way.

What was that called again? Kooky Kola? Wasn't there even a theme song?

EDIT: Ah, found it! Coo-Coo Cola!

I don't say it at all, so I'm an unbiased sample.

Having tried them both out, I think I slightly prefer "Coke and rum" for the hard consonant before the second syllable.

And this is a bad idea because......?

This would actually benefit the world.

I agree.

 

[emomoonbase]

US dentists are deeply angered by this news.

 

[bjork]

Methane soda! Smart soda! Drink green!

 

[NotWii]

Hah, cut it off, I don't drink that crap anyway!

 

[DyersEve]

eh, people don't drink enough water anyway. Bring on your holy beverage war!

"Begun, the Coke Wars have"

 

[Heezzi]

Sad as it is, I don't think people would be able to give up soft drinks.

They would just add more coke to it...

YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!

 

[dark_chris]

Well, doesn't matter to me anyway. I mostly drink milk, lemonade, fruit punch and orange.

"I can stop that gum arabic and all of us will have lost this," Khartoum Karl warned anew, beckoning to the Coke bottle. "But I don't want to go that way."

:lol :lol :lol I can imagine him acting all gangster, pointing a gun at the coke bottle.

"I COULD BLAST THIS FOOL RIGHT NOW....but I won't."

but the downfall of western civilization?

Most, if not all Africans hate gangsta blacks (mainly american ones, some french too)

Though ending the bloodshed was right, part of me thinks it had more to do with the US not wanting China and Russia getting powerful through Sudan's oil.

 

[Witchfinder General]

As an artist who's main medium is watercolour, I find this news deeply disturbing.

"Begun, the Coke Wars have"

Yoda is on Pepsi's side.

 

[tnw]

now the us has to worry about securing arabic gum reserves to satisfy its fizzy drink addiction.

Invasion of Sudan confirmed.
