Someone really made you look like the pretentious Iconic idiot that most Jets fans are! A. Tru Blood is not a wine nor does it claim to be. It is a orange flavored drink that was produced for the HBO series Tru Blood! lol So who ever pranked you Them 1 You 0. Which leads us to MIAMI 31 jets 27. You had the jets 27 right, but man did you mess up on the MIAMI score! So let’s see that would be Everyone 2-you 0.

ha ha @ drinking it at 98.6 degrees. Cute episode. Interesting beverage. Obviously a gimmick but dont quite think it would be my thing. QOTD: Dont know. Im going to guess 14% A, 41% B, 27% O- and 18% Petit Verdot.

I didn’t know 7 Eleven has good drinks. It’s probably cheaper than Starbucks or Tim Hortons.

That synthetic blood drink is way more expensive than I would pay for it.

Leaving Type O for 3 to 4 years? Doesn’t this stuff expire?

QOTD: It’s type A

Hi Gary – I’ve never seen this show as I don’t have HBO. Is that an actual beverage? I have no idea of my blood type. They took many blood samples when I was expecting. xoxox

I checked my calendar to see if we were closer to Halloween, or April 1.

Is the Vayniac Nation aware that Red Bull, and beverages of that type have been officially linked (especially w/ alcohol) to heart disease, and increased stickiness of arterial plaque? Red Bull is now banned in Norway, Denmark, France, and Uruguay, due to immediate health concerns, and has been linked to deaths in Ireland,and other countries. Tru Blood’s website is not interested in saying what it’s even made of, and I’m not interested in marketing fads that are solely interested in my money, but don’t give a damn abut public health.

I think you’re the best kind of crazy. You’re being true to yourself and that’s what you preach.

qotd: I’m an overachiever and my blood type proves it. A+

Dude, save it for Halloween!

Also, the caveat at the beginning was lame. If your audience doesn’t get the joke…then it wasn’t funny to begin with. Give us some credit! Sir Vaynerchuk doesn’t get a caveat prequel and he’s a rockstar.

Your show rocks, your passion about this bloody beverage fit right in with any other show you do.

I busted a gut after your tried the first Blood type. Thought you were going to loose it. Shoving the glass over to the side real quick so you didn’t have to try it again. I didn’t think there was any way you were going to try the second type.

Keep up the great work.

QOTD: Dunno, but should
