Back when I still drank soda regularly, I only drank Coke with meals. For non-meal beverages, I drank Pepsi.
(I think it goes back to my first memories of our family eating out at the local Pizza Hut, which only served Coke. We never had soda in the house into my last year or so in high school. I didn't have enough cash to afford soda on my own, and when I did, the only two machines in the high school were both Pepsi machines.)

I do appreciate what he did for penal system reform. Some individuals may not relate or run afoul of the law, but many in society, especially the US, do. That may be one of the reasons that he was and is popular. Not his cover of hurt by NIN.
I tend to separate out people's music and/or acting from their personal activism. Otherwise I'd have to skip all the Mission: Impossible movies, which would be sad, because that last one was really good. Same with Cash -- I'm hugely in favor of prison reform, but still don't like his music.

I say hello to every raven I meet while walking.
I whistle back when birds call near me. Sometimes it turns into a conversation.
A family tradition which I uphold is saddling our dogs with loathsome/insulting/inappropriate names or nicknames.
I knock on the hull of any airplane before I board it. (It's not for luck or anything, just something I do)
I name my vehicles and my personal weaponry- usually stupid stuff like "Otis P. Jivefunk, Minister of Culture"(My 1997 Saturn SC I got rid of in 2009)
I thank trees before I cut them down, and animals before I kill them.

I would have to give up Legend, although it might get a pass for being pre-Hubbard honeymoon. I did like Rouge Nation though, agreed.

I miss him.
Amusingly, I'm not very good with makeup.

It's the awesome fun-time you have after the big argument, right?
