Now what am I going to do?

There will always be Boone's Farm.

Ice cold MD 20/20 ;)


I haven't had a MadDog 20/20 in years and will not touch them now. A friend and I would go out and get 1 Bottle each, down them and then smoke some hash. lost a lot of nights doing that. was always fun when told what I had done after I blacked out.

As you can tell by my moniker, I am very displeased with this decision.

I think I will cash in my 401k and stock up. :laugh:

no big loss, after the new shiny wore off they were just one of the crap drinks anyway.

What's the difference between Zima and Smirnoff Ice etc, tastes all like sprite

When zima came out it was an entirely new segment for beverage alcohol - the malternative. The segment exploded with every spirits company racing to cash in on it. Some were good like jack daniels country cocktails and mike's hard lemonade. Most were just rushed to market just adding flavor chemicals.

It was similar to what happened when bartles and james came out with the wine cooler.

i still like mikes as well as the JD stuffz. zima didnt taste very good compared to them.

Zima is not that bad. However if you drink it at a bar you could risk losing your man card.

ive drank many malibu and pineapples. one guy gave me a hard time in st louis after i ordered it, but he left the bar quickly after that. anyone that thinks your man card is suspect based on one type of drink is a moron.
