  • I'm taking Carri Jenkens at her word. If she says that caffeine isn't sold on campus because there really hasn't been a demand for it, then I believe her.

      I bet they switch to Pepsi just to stick it to the less valiant.

          EDIT:

          Thiot, returned Mormon missionary, has gotten lots of calls from fellow students on both sides of the question. Some support the caffeine move while others accuse him of disloyalty or, worse, disobedience.

          • So, mostly because the entire line from Carrie Jenkins in the various statements is pure, refined, crystalline and smokable bullshit, I'm happy to see somebody going after the administration on this. It's a completely ridiculous thing, this crusade, but it makes me proud of the current crop of students for some reason. And I don't even drink caffeine that much.

              With all due respect, I find it perfectly plausible and believable that BYU does not serve caffeine simply because there really hasn't been a demand for it.

              Ok, no I don't. Sorry.

                I bet caffeinated drinks sell like hotcakes at any store close to the Y. I always thought it would be a good idea to open up a soda shop right off BYU campus. Kind of like a smoke shop, your standard beverage fare, the harder energy drinks, plus more exotic hard to get stuff from all over the world. Perfect for the annoying RM who can't stop talking about some great soda in Belize.

                • I used to joke that I had to drink my Cherry Coke from a brown paper bag while on campus.

And we Mormons wonder why others think we're weird.

                    • I know that one year during rivalry week while I was still at BYU, some Utah students, I think from the Daily Chronicle staff, rolled a large quantity of Coke into the Wilk and gave it away.

                        You get it.

                        That's almost exactly my thoughts.
                        If we disagree on something, it's because you're wrong.

                          When my kids used to lie badly to me, I would tell them that if they were going to lie at least respect me enough to come up with a good lie. I'm proud to say that now when my kids lie to me, they do it gloriously. I don't mind so much that Carrie Jenkins lied, but it bothers me that it was such a lazy lie.

                          • While a caffeine consumer I fully support BYU's stand on no caffeine.

                            BYU has a responsibility to those who choose to live the higher law. They relent on caffeine, what is next, allowing facial hair? How do you ask those who are called to positions of authority in a ward or stake not to have facial hair if the flagship representing our values relents.

                              No kidding. They need to fire her and find someone who can lie with a little more panache and creativity. That was embarrassing.
