Forget the cola wars between Christina and Britney. The real issue isn't what cola to drink or even which sugary diva to believe.
It's what boy band is best. Now that's something I can sink my cola-damaged teeth into.
OK, so you've got your Backstreet Boys and your 'N Sync. Game over -- Backstreet Boys win.
Proof you say?
A quick glance at the pictures, and it's obvious. The Backstreets are cuter. Brian kicks Justin's butt, Nick's way hotter than Lance, A.J. has cooler facial hair than Chris, Kevin's hunkier than Joey and Howie's manlier than JC.
Case closed.
More proof? OK, who would you rather party with? Backstreets.Who would you trust to feed your cat when you're gone for the weekend? Backstreets.Who wouldn't be dangling from strings like puppets if you needed a hand moving? Backstreets. Who'd give you a hand fixing your car? Backstreets. Who wouldn't be waiting for Britney to put her makeup on, making you late for your Dream concert? Backstreets.
You might say, "OK, but that's only your opinion." And I'd say, "Well yeah, but what are you going to do about it?" And after you didn't have a response for that I'd be like, "OK, well what song do you really hate to have stuck in your head?" And you'd have no choice but to say "Bye, Bye, Bye."'And you'd be like, "Oh yeah."
On that note, I think it's time to kick back with a little Black & Blue and ponder that whole cola dilemma.
