Coming soon: The JV Club!

Goddammit, they actually got Coke Zero right (or I suppose "right," in carbonated beverage terms), so naturally they're gonna change it.

BOO.

Dang, that's a poster I'd like to have in black velvet and neon.

You'll see it coming. Just wait for Batman to pick up a cup of coffee and take a big drink, then BLAMMO!

"PUTTIN' ON THE RIIIIIITZ!!!"

Yeah, that was pretty thin justification of their foregone conclusion. The best solution will always be Agent Ward's reaction to the explanation of "SHIELD": "It sounds like somebody really wanted to call it 'SHIELD.'"

But research serves to support (not confirm), explain, and/or - more importantly - disprove those things that "everybody knows."
