Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

Keeping posters from engaging in a humorous side tangent and friendly, harmless banter in a lounge-type “general discussion” thread is my job?

Look, all I'm saying is that there are limits to an aside. This one has been going on for two days, and it's hard to bounce off other posters on-topic if no one discusses the topic. And I don't even drink Coca-cola!

Genuinely, I think you’re making a problem out of something that doesn’t have to be one. The way I see it your options in this situation are to either (1) bow out of the discussion for a while, check back later and see if it’s returned to a more SNW-related topic, or (2) be proactive and be the one that steers the discussion more towards the show. Or, if you're so inclined, let (3) one of this subforum’s mods know and have them weigh in on the tangent. Personally, and just speaking as a fellow poster in here, I would probably do (1) or (2). Only thing I know is that keeping on complaining about it doesn’t seem to get you much closer to your desired outcome.
 
Ahhhh, the bitterness of a Pepsi drinker. Or... GASP RC?

Yuck no. If given the choice, I'll drink Coke.

DAMN! You guys drew me into this!!! NOOOooooo!!

What's to discuss? The shows in production and we're probably a year away from seeing an episode. Harmless banter is keeping the lights on.
You're getting PAID for this???

Fair enough. It's your show.
 
Hmmm.

"Ale-8-One, known colloquially as Ale-8, is a regional ginger- and citrus-flavored soft drink, distributed primarily to brick and mortar retailers in Kentucky. Ale-8 could be described as a ginger Soda with a "kick". It is a ginger and citrus blend, containing less carbonation and fewer calories than conventional soda"

So, like ginger ale meets Mountain Dew?

Myself, I had a A&W with my lunch.
 
I love A&W Cream Soda. It's like liquid marshmallow with a drizzle of caramel.

Sublime and divine all at the same time.

That rhymes, doesn't it?
 
While in New Zealand, I did discover a drink I'd never heard of, Lemon & Paeroa. L&P for short. At first.... I didn't like it. But after trying it a second time, I couldn't get enough of the stuff.

I've genuinely given thought to importing the stuff into Canada, it's so good.
