I was going on my 8th hour on this campus (with 4 more to go) when I headed over to the LRC to nuke my dinner and grab a pop. It was a long day, and I really needed some caffeine if I was going to make it through Administrative Law and whatever it was we read for today. So, I took my dollar to the first pop machine by all the forks and stuff - it wouldn't go in. I took it to the second machine down the walkway - it wouldn't go in. Then, I took my dollar to the coffee-cart guy to get a pop out of his cooler, but he locked it and said he was closed. So I walked back to my table, fished three quarters out of my purse (I hate spending change!) and went back to the first pop machine. I put in my change and pressed the button for a Coke - sold out. I pressed the second button for a Coke Zero - sold out. I did the same for a Diet Coke - sold out. So on and so on until I got to the last button, which gave me a Black Cherry Vanilla Coke. I didn't even know those existed, but now I know why they shouldn't. Whoever invented that flavor should be kicked in the berries.
Needless to say, by this time I was pissed, and I started yelling at the frightened lady next to me, 'what the hell is wrong with this place? I just want a fucking pop!' She turned around (probably to reach for her mace) and I ran away. Then I spilled my Black Cherry Vanilla Coke, that it took me 20 minutes to get, on my computer. Laptops are waterproof, right?
I should probably go home but I still have to go to Admin. Yay.

Captain America will notify his Coca-Cola Representative and take care of this atrocity immediately!
hey now! any time you rip on a new soda flavor you rip on my hometown, which is the test market for all new soda flavors... from mtn dew "blue" to pepsi "lime." if it plays in peoria, it makes its way back to portland and into your face. i guess my people thought black cherry vanilla was good!
Time for some new peeps?
I'm sorry that Peoria had to get dragged into this, but they were way off this time.
I believe the politically correct term for the flavor you dislike is African American Cherry Caucasian.
