re: #133 A hollow Gandalfian voice says, VOTE, you fools!

When it first aired, I had a co-worker (of English origin) who was also a fan. The day after The Way of the Warrior first aired, I asked him what he’d thought of it, and he hadn’t had time to watch it yet (so not so much of a fan, I’d say, but he had a family). I told him to pay attention to the root beer scene — he’d know when he got to it.

The next day, he came in laughing his ass off and told me that was exactly his reaction to root beer. Including the “get to like it” part.

I’ve been drinking root beer since I was a kid, so for me, it’s nothing really unusual. But I’d imagine for others, it’s definitely an acquired taste.
