I believe that what type of soda you drink has a lot to do with the type of person you are. I myself have a strong love the red can of bittersweet soda, rather than that blue wannabe. Anyway, in my life I've befriended people on both sides of the Soft Drink Fence (not that I base my friendships on what soda people drink, and I definitely don't judge people based on whether they hate Coke or not. While it may seem that way in this article, it's not the case at all.) I think a great example is a person I was once good friends with, but no longer am because he's somewhat of a freak. We'll refer to this man as "Amy", because that's how his last name is pronounced, and because I tend to stray from using people's real names...sort of. Anyway, Amy is basically my exact opposite. If I were the Joker, he'd be a Librarian. I mean, everything about us was opposite, even looks. I'm tall and skinny, he's average height for his age and...well he's bigger (I hate to sound like a jerk. But in his defense, he's lost a lot of weight over the years.) Amy has short blonde hair; I have long, straight brown hair, although it's not naturally straight. He wore all black all the time, and at that time in my life I wore light colors, mostly.

And then of course there were our differences in beliefs. He's an atheist; I'm a devoted Catholic. He's about as Liberal as Alan Colmes, I'm about as Liberal as Ronald Reagan. He spent two years in Spanish class and can't speak a word of it; my final Spanish grade was 103%. I'm a runner, he's a sitter. He drinks Pepsi, I drink Coke. Does the soda we drink have anything to do with who we are? Maybe.

But wait! There's more. My sister, Twin #1, shares my love of Coke. And she too, is a Catholic. But Twin #2, is a Pepsi Enthusiast. And she is an Atheist. I'm beginning to see a pattern, indeed. Maybe there is a small correlation between whether you enjoy Coke or Pepsi. Or maybe I'm just making this all up as I go because I haven't written a good article in about 4 months and I just want something else on the site for people to read, even though only two, maybe three people I know actually read this crap (that's if I'm lucky). But the relation between soda and person is for you to decide.

But to the actual question posed in this topic, "Pepsi or Coke?". I'm just gonna come right out and say Coke. While it is true that I don't mind Pepsi and I will drink it by choice every once in a while, Coca Cola sits high in the Hierarchy Of Soft Drinks, second only to
