Throwback Thursday: “New Ch-Ch-Ch-Cherry Coke” (1985)

This catchy jingle comes to you courtesy of the grand old year of 1985.  (Actually, it was the deftmahatma Youtube channel.)

Unlike the New Coke debacle that very same year, Cherry Coke caught on.  I had one just yesterday, despite my dentist’s sage counsel.  (It’s the acidity that’s bad for your teeth — not the sugar.)  I think we can all agree that Cherry Coke is super-god-damned good.

By the way, nobody can tell me that 80’s fashion isn’t due for a revival.

I made up another joke!

Have you heard about that island in the Pacific where they found a row of mysterious, giant stone statues of butts?

They’re calling it Keister Island.



I am amazing.  I really should have a cult following.
