Coca Cola (R) , the Deck

[Dream_Merchant]

Imagine yourselves working under the scorching sun in a midsummer day ( I know its almost winter..but try imagining ). You are sweating, the heat is overwhelming you, vertigo is soon to overcome your senses and you have this urgent need to quench a seemingly endless thirst.

What do you do? Why.. you take a short walk to the nearest supermarket or kiosk, locate where the cold refreshments are, open the door of the refrigerator with all the flashy advertisements on it , letting the cool air bring some sanity to your sizzled brain and you....

grab a cold can of Coca Cola (R) !

Drinking the tasty and refreshing beverage you lean on the side of a bench under the cool shade of a tree and wonder what it makes Coca Cola so....desirable.

Letting your neurons get accustomed to the newfound coolness you would naturally draw the conclusions that Coca Cola rules the house of liquid refreshments because of the following reasons:

1) It's red. Red is an appealing color. It catches the eye and it has a certain flavor to it all by itself.

2) It's tasty. No matter how much you let the thoughts of capitalism and corporation propaganda fill you with guilt, you know that your tastebuds are dancing the fandango and you know you want to squeeze the last drop out of the can for the sheer taste of it.

3) It's easily accessible. No sweat..its everywhere. Its more easily accessible then bland water.

4) Which brings me to my next point, unlike water.. it has a brand. Coca Cola ladies and gentlemen. Even the most savage and isolated cultures around the world would know that name. Even where there is no democracy or human rights or science there is Coca Cola.

5) It's mass produced like nothing else. There is a can of Coke for anyone willing to pay the small price. And the more you drink , the more you get to like it.

ok..i stop ranting

Based on the above demonstration and without further due I present to you.. CocaCola.dec
