I had to stop reading a few SGA fics that had Rodney guzzling Mountain Dew.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Mountain Dew
Mountain Dew is everywhere! It's the juice of the stars!

It has concentrated orange juice in it. and "natural flavors" that I assume are citrusy.

Well, there is a faction of fandom that says Rodney's allergies are psychosomatic or even consciously an attention-getting device.
Though I'd have hit the back button on that fic as well.

Even if they were psychosomatic he wouldn't be drinking Mountain Dew.

Unless "Mountain Dew" referred to bootleg liquor fermented from on board fruit juice and vacuum distilled. (Maybe from fruit he was not allergic to..)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't back button anywhere near enough. I think I've just given up, once I've started. Oh, what? Pre-series fic in which Dean stakes vampires?
Sure, why not. I mean, nothing important happened before season 4, right? It is totally optional.

I'm pretty sure it was Mountain Dew the soda, in one it was set when Rodney was in college and talked about him guzzling 2 liters of Mt Dew. The other was...I'm not sure, but again it seemed pretty clear it was the soda.

I was being smart ass (towards the people who wrote the fics). Fic is already "reading" canon. I was "reading" the fics.

I don't understand what that means. Is it a lit crit term, or something?
