Pepsi - It's the Suck

That lousy soft drink company is really getting to me with their pompous wave of new commercials. Pepsi is not "the" cola. I don't know why they say that they are. They are "the" poser, I'll tells ya what. They aren't original, they're phoney! If there's one thing I hate in the world, it's a poser. They suck so much! Everything they've ever done has been to steal Coca-Cola's glory as the originally recognized cola. First cola flavored soft drink (not really in any distinguishable company): 1881. Coca-Cola invented: 1886. Pepsi fakes it up: 1898. Granted, tho', Coke has tried its hand at backstabbing and outdoin' Pepsi, but that's just a strategical counterstrike. Pepsi started the war, Coke is merely defending its ground.
Additionally, what is up with the content of the commercials themselves? "Duh! It's not a sandwich without a Pepsi!" ... Yes. Yes, it is. I don't think I've ever even had a sandwich with a Pepsi before in my life. Same thing with hotdogs. I mean, they're acting like Pepsi is this must have thing for certain foods, but its not. It's only pathetic. Very pathetic.
