A&W? Ick. Give me IBC any day. (or some of the local stuff… yum.)
Definitely IBC.
IBC Root Beer is definitely the best non-alcoholic drink. Ever. Anywhere.
But sometimes, I just want a little alcohol. Is that so wrong? I can quit anytime…juss another li’l drink ta looshen me up a liddle…jush a liddle small one, okey-doke?
IBC straight from the bottle baybee.
AAAAHHHH…not BUFFY! (My sister is a BTVS freak and that’s all I ever hear about…)
Another good drink-mudslides, which is basically a chocolate shake with vodka. Leave out the vodka and you’ve got one HELL of a good milk shake!
As I get older and drink less and less alcohol I’ve begun to appreciate…
British lemonade. Like 7-UP if it actually tasted of lemons.
Iced tea (can there be enough?)
Dr Pepper–my one true vice
Hot chocolate–my wife and I have probably been to every establishment in Oxford that serves it.

Surely, if we’re talking about tautologies here, one wouldn’t need both “Unholy” and “Vampire” in the same title? To be unholy is the raison d’être of vampires. At the very least removing “unholy” would save space on the T-shirts, badges and other (Unholy) Lesbian Vampire Army of the Night paraphenalia.

i love the cherry coke when it is made properly with enough syrup to give it a red color, and you have to have maraschino cherries with it!
A rootbeer float (black cow?) is one of the best drinks ever.
Lots of Mountain Dew and Dr.Pepper.
Tea either green or black, if i am in a hurry Arizona or Snapple is preferred.
i prefer cold drinks, 98% of the time.
Are you insinuating that good, moral religious people can’t be unholy lesbian vampires? I take exception to that.
Besides, without the U, it would be LVAN. Then to say it would sound like an idiot tourist in France. “Um… madame… ou est le van?”
You, Man, are hindered by your foolish and childish clinging to traditional Christian folklore with respect to vampires.
Vampires need not be unholy, per se, although they often are. Such as myself. andygirl is not, in technical terms, but is close enough as it makes no difference.
If she was, then her recent night spent in the Pines Motel with the other three lesbians would have one of chains, whips, leather restraints, candlewax on the nipples, scented oils, screams, moans, whimpers, pleading for release, and finally the mind-scrambling, shuddering, weeping release that can only come from a woman servicing another…
Followed by the creation of her own sub-coven of worshippers on campus. But she let that opportunity pass. I am … displeased with her performance, but I am certain I will forgive her, as the Dark Queen is not unmerciful.
As to Spider Woman: we were planning for weeks to abduct you and bring you into the fold; it appears that that will no longer be necessary… I will let andygirl, Dark Princess of the ULVAN see to your training (yes, andygirl, you have been promoted. And when I leave, you will serve as the Dark Queen. 
)
So shall it be posted, so shall it be done.
Phew! Did I ever run into a minefield suggesting all vampires are unholy!
Anthracite, I didn’t suggest vampires were all debauched. (Yes, I did read andygirl’s motel thread.) You got me on “Christian folklore” though–I’m trying to finish a thesis on 16th-century church history now, and one of the writers I study refers to “unholy creatuars…[like] bloud-sucking vampyrs” (Miles Hogarth, 1555–how’s that for a cite?) But I’m more worried about your reference to “when I leave”. Don’t leave the Board! Who will inform us of coal technology? 
andygirl: le van–heh, heh. I was only afraid that LVAN might sound like a dissident NI loyalist terrorist group. “The Loyalist Volunteer Association (New) issued a statement today…”
BTW, I’m hereby leaving the SD Temperance Group. I am in the midst of drinking a large-sized G&T in a can. Yes, it’s my first drunken post <hic>!
No you didn’t. I wasn’t being serious, after all.
I was only trying to set up a chain of succession, that’s all. There is no ulterior motive for the statement.
Of course, the Dark Princess could stage a coup, and lock me in the Dungeon of the Lesbian Sorority on her campus, where I would be tormented cruelly for years by soft, tickling fingers and tongues…but she would never do that. She’s loyal to me…?
Talk about the Hijack of the Century!
Can I be in the group? I even made a thread mocking the beer threads, pitifull as it was.

Which group were you wanting to join, sk8rixtx, the Temperance Union, or the Unholy Lesbian Vampire Army of the Night (for which the SDTU is merely a front)? be very afraid. . .

Indeed.
For the record, I’m not so unholy that I’m unfaithful to my truest love. If I were single, though, rest assured that they would have spent the evening calling out my unholy name. Among other things. ahem.
I never said that I didn’t have a sub-coven, Queen. I just said that I didn’t seduce them. There are other methods. Muhuhahaha!
I screw up, and yet she promotes me. I could get used to this.
Spider Woman: Let us discuss the advantages to your many limbs…
And don’t forget my fangs and webbing.

It was long overdue, for your outstanding service to the ULVAN! And even I have made mistakes - I failed after many long months to convert pepperlandgirl, after all…
Spider Woman, you are just cool.
And that’s all I’m going to say about that here.
Add cream soda and birch beer to the temperance drinks.
And I want in to the ULVAN.
It’s a sig line! It’s a sig line! Finally I can ditch my Penn and Teller line!
