Coke vs. Pepsi

That's right. A tech blogger is writing about soft drinks. Why? Because I drink A LOT of them when I'm gaming, or doing anything for that matter. Well, down to business.

Recently there have been many festivals in Calgary that have had the Pepsi Challenge. It got me thinking which I like more. There are many variables however, like warm vs. cold, or different flavours. For right now I'm just going to talk about the originals, both cold.

Well, to put it simply, I prefer Pepsi. It hasn't always been that way though. Up until a year or two ago I would get mad at anyone who perfered Pepsi, as the only time I would really drink soft drinks was with my Uncle, who loves Coke. I then started developing my own taste for things and grew to like Pepsi more. The taste is sweeter and the drink is usually more carbonated. When it's warm though, it tastes pretty rotten.

If I was to talk about overall company's I would have to go with Coke. The other products that Coke vs. Pepsi do are definately in Coke's favour. Like 7 up vs. Sprite or C plus vs. Fanta.

It really just depends on my mood I guess. But, that's my opinion.

Benvahkiin's Top 5 TV Shows of 2012!

Well, seeing as 2012 will be coming to an end in the next few months, there probably won't be many new shows out anymore. I will be listing my top 5 favourite shows of 2012. The only guideline is that they are still making episodes. So let's get started!

Number 5: Futurama - The only cartoon on my list! I chose Futurama over The Simpsons mainly because I enjoy the characters more on Futurama. I feel closer to them, rather than any of the Simpsons.

Number 4: Breaking Bad - I only started watching this about a month ago, but I can't stop watching it! In someway I find the characters so relatable and you grow so close to them, even after the pilot. It's takes action, suspense, and a little comedy, throws it all together and mixes it perfectly.

Number 3: Big Bang Theory - Despite all the inaccurate references ("Sword of Azeroth") I really enjoy the show and can actually imagine the show as reality. I am proud of being a geek because of this. It shows the other side of our people, even though it is in a dramatized, rather unlikely way.

Number 2: Cougar Town - I was actually introduced to this show when Abed (Danny Pudi) talked about it being his favourite show. I wasn't sure if it was a real show, so I looked it up and started watching it. I'm not quite sure why I love the show, but I just absolutely love it. Can't wait for season 4!!

Finally, Number 1!! Community - I love this show. It's hard to express in words, but I love it!!! The comedy is perfect for me. That's all I really have to say.

Extra Stuff: If you haven't seen any of these shows, I recommend watching them immediately. Some may not like them, but it is all personal preference.
