[DOF] Same But Different



By Cyndii.

The world is full of competitors and healthy competition, always creating similar items, food, technology and other everyday products. Here are a few "same same but different" brands and items we were able to come up with, special thanks to MagicMichael202 and _Keira_ for this grand discussion within our Discord voice channel. Some of the questions that make me wonder is "How" do they come up with some of the creative names and what "inspire" them to create such franchise, items, or foods and drinks. Do they just wake up once upon a time and think to themselves "Lets name our technology store after a fruit Apple, we must be such great fruit supporters!" I think we all have had a past reaction or some sort of thought to a specific item or name.

I remember having a giggle back in primary school regarding a discussion about the brand "Adidas", apparently the creating of this famous brand comes from the abbreviation 'All Day I Dream About Sex". Smart, but makes you wonder, doesn't it? Very very unique indeed.
Another discussion I remember having once was the creation of coca cola once had an illegal substance of cocaine creating this beverage an energy booster and also quite addictive, this was also found when it was very first created, so long way before any of us were born, so please do not stress. 
Let's not get carried away and discuss some of the "same same but different" stores and items we have here, feel free to comment below some of your "same same but different" things in your country and feel free to answer Today's questions

Same Same, but different

I think most of my answers will depend on the cost - hahah, let's face it, i'm on a very, very, very tight budget, so I don't really go for brands in general. As long as it serves it's purpose, I'd choose the one that's lesser in cost.

1. COKE O R PEPSI? Coke, since I find Pepsi sweeter.
2. McDonalds OR Burger King? McDo is cheaper here than Burger King. So if I'm really hungry on a budget, I can settle for McDo
3. 7Up OR Sprite? 7Up
4. Sunkist OR Fanta? These brands aren't as famous here.
5. Monster OR Redbull? Redbull just cause I don't know if we have monster or I'm just a noob and haven't noticed it in groceries.
6. Dominos OR Pizza Hut? Pizza Hut is cheaper.
7. Starbucks OR Gloria Jeans? Starbucks, simple cause, I don't even know if we have Gloria Jeans, or maybe there are too few stores here.
8. Xbox OR PlayStation? Playstation
9. Apple OR Samsung? Price wise, Samsung. But I am currently using an IPhone, which came FREE with my mobile carrier package.
10. Nike OR Adidas? Addidas, it's cheaper.
11. Netflix OR Hulu? Don't have any ...
12. Facebook OR Twitter? Facebook
13. Spotify OR Apple Music? Spotify
14. Skype OR Discord? Discord
15. Scottyy?! OR Cyndii.? Didn't really get the chance to know Scotty, so I'd say Cindy
