Dasani is Coca-Cola's bottled water brand that apparently sells well in some markets. By using a new filteration technique similar to that used in cell function or dialysis the water is cleaned and minerals added.
Unfortunately on the UK market the product showed traces of bromate, a carcinogen, and was quickly withdrawn whilst it's original debate, it's oustanding price was still ongoing.
More expensive than many of it's competitors', and since this is just filtered tap water, not a good marketing ploy in a country with potable tap water.
Since other Coca-Cola ingredients such as caffeine, caramel, phosphoric acid and aspartame are seperately linked to issues including brain cancer, memory loss and decalcification of teeth and the fact they already produce Buxton water in a similary industrial enviroment, I'd say their long-term reputation for expensive sugar water and the like will not be harmed.

Get the Dasanimug. The dangerous, heady combination of taking one too many E whilst drinking heavily.
When you're so high that eating something, smoking a joint or drinking water will be of no help whatsoever.
Can, of course apply to other drugs, usually speedy ones.

Get the munteredmug. Verb; to have a quick grumble, meaning to have a quick wank.
Grumbling is often done hunched over the keyboard, or for the serious old schooler, with a grumble-mag.

My mate won't stop grumbling, his room, sheets, everything smell of Chicken and Mushroom Pot Noodle.

Get the Grumblemug. Aw, man. I fell asleep in a meeting with the director today, I so don't know how I didn't get sacked. It was a total Kevin Spacey.

Get the Beat Downmug. Many Fords were made at the lovely Dagenham, Essex plant. Over the years these cars and their revolutionary levels of soft, soft body work and inconsistent panel gaps became known as Essex or Dagenham Dogs.
The Ford Fiesta 1.6S MK3 was one of the only models not made in Germany or Spain, but because of it's combination of trim and engine had to be completed in the SVT (Special Vehicles Team) department at Dagenham. Do not buy this model, it can rust it's chassis rails through in about 3 years due to a bizarre lack of rust proofing.
I would guess they just plain thought someone else had sealed that bit. Perish the thought they make Police cars and Ambulances there.

Get the Essex Dogsmug. A genuine technical term used in advertising, often abreviated to "two c's in a kitchen". This unbeleivably offensive term relates to any advert based around two people discussing something for the purpose of a camera.
The origins of this are based in early washing powder comercials where two people would say something like "Oh, how do you get those whites so bright?". Apparently even in the early days people found it hard to keep a straight face on set.
Now there are several pastiches, including two c's by a washing line, two c's in a bar, in a car, anywhere.
In short, two people discussing something pointlessly and in an artificial or clearly staged manner for the benefit of onlookers, sometimes in irony.

Dude, I just had to sit through a party political broadcast with a staged interview. It was so totally two c's.
