I hadn’t seen this Diet Dr. Pepper commercial before, but I’ll bet you can guess what I was thinking the entire time…

    No… what were you thinking?

    That the Flying Spaghetti Monster isn’t there because everyone knows He is real.

    Definitely anti christian and anti christmas.

    I laughed the first time I saw this commercial, and it still makes me chuckle.

    I was thinking, “Wait, where’s Jesus?”

    I always think, “Where’s Jesus?”

    What would happen if they did put Jesus or a god in there?

  • BathTub

    Isn’t that backwards, if you put God there then that would be saying ‘I exist’. That’s the joke.

  • zombie roach

    I think I know what you were thinking! They forgot to include the Republican atheist.

    Show-off… :)

    I believe in ‘a good diet soda’ about as much as I believe in the other things… seeing them all together only reinforced that.

    ‘course, I don’t like regular soda either. Ymmv.

    That good diet sodas don’t exist?

    I’m definitely an agooddietsodaist, and I don’t mind saying it.

    I hope that commercial doesn’t burst any bubbles for the 8 and under crowd who still believe in Santa!

  • Alan E.

    Reminds me of a joke.

    Q. If you were in a race with Jesus, Santa, and the Easter Bunny, who would win?

    A. You. The others aren’t real.

    i don’t believe in diet dr. pepper.

    The first time I saw that commercial I wondered why god wasn’t included.

    Goodness knows that Diet Dr. Pepper definitely isn’t a good, or even drinkable, diet soda. I understood why ‘it’ was there. A good diet soda doesn’t exist.

    I made sure to clarify to my small children why they left the magic sky daddy out.

    Leia, I beg to differ. I do believe in Diet Dr. Pepper! I do! Meaning, I love it and it’s everything it claims to be — unlike some others.

    Of course, Dr. Pepper had me back in the ’70′s with their be an original commercials good, ole Barry Manilow wrote.Very Strange Medley Dr. P is at the 2:10 mark but give the whole thing a listen. If you’re a baby boomer you probably already know how Barry Manilow got his start but it’s a great trip down memory lane and I love this one’s video.

    Yeah, subtle. I love this commercial. Of course, they had to leave out “God” but that only somehow points up the obvious even more and doesn’t leave the Christian nutters a leg to stand on — though I’m surprised that stops them.

    I believe that Mr. Pibb kicked Dr. Pepper’s ass.
