Mountain Dew is ass. It's horribly sweet and disgusting.
I agree. It builds up this godawful phlegm in the throat that is NASTY. *shudder*

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I used to like Mountain Dew but now it's my ex-boyfriend's drink and reminds me what an idiot I was when I was his gf.
You definitely want to avoid the taint of the ex, but if you actually really liked the Dew maybe you should give yourself a pass on this one. I avoided Buffy for a very long time on the selfsame principle, which clearly only hurt and deprived exactly one person: me.
Not that Mountain Dew is, like, the Buffy of soda pop or anything. I suppose my example is one of those parallels you don't want to examine too closely.
Anyhow, if you feel like having one, go ahead, even if the guy who introduced you to it was a jackhole. Screw him, and the less-than-ideal person you were when you were with him. It's your birthday!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Mountain Dew makes my teeth hurt.

Always Anti-fascist!
Maybe sometime, JZ. It's a weird taste I'm not often in the mood for, but maybe I don't need to think about him every time. The first time I watched Buffy I didn't take to it. Nor Homicide either. Because in both cases I came in on weird points.

What is even happening?
erika, did you see Dana's post upthread that WGN is rerunning Homicide from the beginning. She said they ran the pilot, today. That gave me a little thrill, seeing as it's your birthday.

Ann, that's a ferret.
If you're looking for a cold source of caffeine, Mountain Dew is a better source than the typical cola in the sense that MD has more caffeine.
Beyond that, hey, whatever your taste buds tell you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I did, but she moved to another firm a couple of weeks ago.
Ooh, that sucks even more. How was Vegas??
Did I say Happy Birthday, Erika? HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ERIKA!!!
I had a friend in college who didn't drink, but would drink a Double Gulp of Mountain Dew when the rest of us were drinking booze, and I swear to god, she'd be the most fucked up person in the room.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy Birthday, Erika! May you have a year filled with the camaraderie in the face of darkness of Homicide, the intoxicating language and unexpected moment of grace of Deadwood, the friendship and humor of Buffy, and the depth and range and resepct for all kinds of people of The Wire.

Now that is a perfect moment in the universe. Really. It makes me happy. Although it would be ultimately perfect if erika also got scads of dosh and had a sexy man peeling grapes for her on her birthday.
