1) People who act worse than my 2 year old niece
2) Country music (give me Disco any day.  Wink )
3) Burger King and their new french fries
4) Coca-cola for switching their formula, just to switch it back again
5) The fact that there are no after-holiday holidays to lay in bed and recover.  Cheesy

It was back when I was still out in Hawaii, so I think somewhere around 1985.  They were just about to reach 100 years, and poof, they change their formula.  Dumb dumb dumb move.

There was that classic pepsi ad, "if you never liked the old coke, and you don't like the new coke either, why don't you try pepsi?"
They never introduced the new formula in Germany. In many third world countries, they never switched back. (I think the new formula comes Coke a tad cheaper.) In Canada and the US, for years (into the mid 90s at least) they ran both lines, the old formula as "Coke Classic", the new one as "Coca Cola".

It's still "Classic" here in the US.  It ranks up with there with some of the worst corporate decisions ever (at least in my book).

But they're not running the new formula any more, or are they?

Not that I've seen over here, at least not in the past few years.  Thank goodness.  The "new" formula just sucked.
