Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - jackhammer: the summertime drink

I think I'll stick with the black sparks...

BLACK Sparks? Haven't seen that around here -- what does it taste like?

Sparks Plus - tastes more "chemicaly" than the orange Sparks. (but is 7% instead of 6%)

I'm actually drinking one right now.

that extra percent is totally not worth it

wow - who ever knew that you could put liquid schitt in a can, dye it orange, add alcohol, and sell it under the name SPARKS? Whoever took charge and started Sparks is smarter than the guy who invented the pet rock.

I'm on my third can of the night and I'll be going strong until i see the sunrise (man, pulling an all-nighter for work is never fun)

here in muskegon the drink for the summer is a Panty Dropper, man i dont know but ive seen some crazy sh*t go down since everyone started drinking them. oh and sparks is always there. i know a guy who drinks all day and when he needs to eat he drinks a sparks, he's hardcore punk as sh*t...well thats what he thinks.

can someone please explain to me why sparks is so much better than caff. beverage + vodka/rum/whiskey?

Also, it's not summer without haffenreffer, mint juleps, and old fashioneds.

You don't have to mix it, it has a consistent, predictable taste, and the can is shiny.

sparks is like drinking a pixie stick
thats my $0.02

sparks is like drinking some horrible concoction that costs two bucks a can.

drink beer, *******.

drink beer, *******.
Beer makes me fall asleep though, and I'm not tough enough to smoke. :(

then it looks like you need to find other substances to abuse.

drink beer, *******.

That gets done too, but why lock yourself into any one thing at such an early age? :rolleyes:

My GF is a Sparks fan because Sparks seems to have more waking power than Red Bull/Rockstar, and Sparks costs $1.50, whereas the other bevs cost $2-2.50.

Plus Sparks gets you hyphy.

It does keep me up really well in a way that Red Bull doesn't. Probably because of the hyphy quotient.

no, hyphy juice gets you hyphy.

fwiw colt 45 + sparks isnt quite as bad as it sounds, though pretty close. i always thought sparks tasted like shock tarts.

oh, and everyone should boycott sparks anyway, they just backed out on us for sponsoring the MnG due to "corporate restructuring."

****ers.

i always thought sparks tasted like shock tarts.

thank god i'm not the only one.

that's lame that sparks backed out, i don't think they realize that they're pissing in their only reliable customer pool.

from now on i'll be drinking vodka and wheat grass. it's called a lawnmower, and i got the idea where i get all my great ideas. the simpsons.

i like vodka and orangina, mostly because I realized that it could only have one possible name, and that was "vagina."

You don't have to mix it, it has a consistent, predictable taste, and the can is shiny.

Who said anything about mixing? And if you can't predict what any major booze group is going to taste like with any major sugar drink group, you just need to drink more. If you're drinking stuff from cans that aren't shiny, you definitely need to drink less.

(All in fun, kids, I don't care what anybody drinks. Except for southpaw, that **** sucks, don't get fooled by a sale on that one. But that's like a PSA, not snobbery. Oh, and blue moon is made by coors, and friends don't let friends drink republican beer.)

Awesome. I can get behind this emotion. Plus the whole "Sparks dropped the MNG" thing.

What about the Chia Pet?

**** sparks, **** beer, drink whiskey *******.









i also drink beer. and sparks. and wine. wine coolers. malt liquor....well.. .yea you get it.

my favorite bar switched from pbr to rainier....it's a sad day.

Sparks: the scene wh0re "beer."

Hey, I like it.

But I also like Hitachino Nest White Ale and Mackeson Triple Stout...and Corona.


Cheah.

think about this... a four pack of sparks costs eight bucks. i don't know about you but i'm not drunk after drinking four sparks. for that eight bucks you can get four or five fourties (depending on where you live).

and i'm sure as schit not going to drink two hundred ounces of malt liquor in one night unless i got nothing to do the next day. sparks is just a dumb hipster drink, and i don't care... it makes it easier to spot the n00bz.

**** drinking, *******. hook up an IV drip of everclear. now we're talking.

i dont think ive ever even heard of sparks before this thread.
all i know is that the week or so that hank's had trouble getting pbr was a sad, sad time in my life, but thank god there's still gin.

If you drink 4 sparks you're gonna have a heart attack. Jesus. I dont think anyone drinks sparks to get drunk, they drink sparks to keep drinking later.

+1 You drink sparks because nothing sucks like getting faded with 20 miles to cover before you're home.

Forget that, either distill your own or drink Scotch. Straight, none of that whussy ice and water.

seriously, i don't even drink beer anymore. when i wanna get faced i reach straight for the gasoline, bleach, draino, window cleaner or whatever else is around the house.

cheaper than mixing red bull & vodka

Tastes no worse than that terrible Pabst swill.

What marketing technique is this called again?

What's with Pabst? The only people that seem to drink that sh1t are dirty, "nu-stoner indie art metal" or whatever the f-uk you call it. (see: all those bands that sound like Neurosis with a "twist") dudes. You know, dirty tight jeans/tee/military coat/etc, probably has a beard, is 23 but looks 35, and kind of looks like a war veteran.

This is true in Columbus at least. God I love stereotyping.

I'm guessing it tastes like ****, I've never had it.

Cheeeerrrrrsss.
