I know it sounds silly... I'm trying to pick up weight (muscle weight). I 5"9 low 150's and its really tought for me to gain weight. The only time I've gained weight was when I was drinking a ton of beer every weekend. I dont want to do that obviously, I'm just wondering if it would hurt to drink a carmel mocha frap from startbucks every once in a while? I know its not gonna go to my belly, so why not add some quick calories along with my normal healthy eating?

I would thing you'd want to keep your diet as clean as possible! However, if your looking for a "cheat" Starbucks has a "Light" version of their Carmel Frap:
Caramel Frappuccino Light Blended Coffee - 140 calories 1.5g fat, 28 carbs, 2g fiber, 21g sugar, 5g protein
I think the regular ones have about 600 calories, 17g fat and 95 carbs.
I think if your trying to "bulk up" you'd want to pick high protien, but still lean sources....just my 2 cents-or less, since I'm in Canada.:)

Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.

Shap the answer is NO....you may cheat occassionally with junk or unhealthy foods once in a while but not consistantly...instead use healthy choices....if you sat down and searched the net for ideas you can find a million healthy ideas....try to eat 6-8 small meals..which includes snacks and you'll be fine....lets say 3 main meals and then 3-4 snacks, protein shake, yogurt, nuts, dried fruits, etc..many things u can it...no need to eat crap...because after a while it will take its toll on you I can promise you that much...
