Random fact re: Dr Pepper, there is no period/dot after the "Dr" in the logo and to my knowledge there never has been. Same with Mr Pibb. (Yes, I first learned this fact from 8 Bit Theater. Don't try to tell me some of you didn't, either.)

Look at how many of those clones follow the same convention. Seven of them, by my count. Somebody noticed.

I hereby further submit to you that "Dr" Pepper is in fact not a real doctor. Either that, or he's British. No middle ground.

Sure, Right… what’s your next claim, that Captain Crunch isn’t really a senior commissioned officer in the navy‽‽

Ahem.. It’s Cap’N if you please. And he is here to crunchatize you.

I like them so much I made a keyboard shortcut to replace them if I type “??!!”.

That’s easy, I just type “??!!”… then it changes it to “‽”.

Hell, I've never even been in charge of a boat with more than 3 people on it

I’ve heard it said that Captain Lezbian definitely knows how to take care of the little man in the boat.

I've been to the official museum in the old bottling plant in Waco, and no, there never was a real doctor.

This gave me heavy Nuka Cola vibes for some reason.
