Always refreshing, always Coca-Cola.

Not to mention their draconian 'No shirt, No shoes, no dice" policy. Where else will the white trash get their Miracle Whip and their Winstons?

[Yegolev]

So that's pretty much every other supplier on the planet?

Almost. ;-)

[Paelos]

Fuck that shit, why does Walmart even exist?

Because Target has a long standing rule of "no beating your children in the isles"?

Like Cuba or the Virgin Isles?

I had to restrain myself to not point that out.

Diet Coke has caffiene, doesn't caffiene dehydrate you?

Yes, but the caffeine levels are low enough that you still get more water than you lose.

water, when consumed in large volume, increases urine output

It is also wet.

[Paelos]

I just had Coke Zero. It's nice!

[Polysorbate80]

Phooey, try room temperature Diet Coke :)

No, it's not super-wonderful or anything, but I can almost guarantee nobody will swipe your stash. 

...Seriously, that's why I got into the habit of not refrigerating it.

[Samwise]

Poly, you are a truly perverse human being.  Congrats.

My friend drinks warm TaB, which I was shocked was even on the shelves anymore.

[Signe]

Is that you?

It's Bob Goldthwait. Highly caffientated standup comedian (at least he was in the 80's).

I look nothing like that. If I posted pictures of myself, the lawyers here would begin to stalk me.

Bobcat is married to Nikki Cox. Whom I have fair reason to believe is a fembot.

That is an interesting angle. I think he and Robin Williams shared an vacation home in Cartagena, if you get my drift.

[stray]

Ah yes...Forgot about that.

Besides that though, there wasn't one act back then that Bob didn't mention Tab.

Bobcat – I need a Tab! I was promised full beverage service!

Bobcat - This has the exact same ingredients as a battery.

Bob ponders doing a Tab commercial.

You worry so much over artificial sweetners and caffeine all the while missing the worse killer chemical of all human existence, Dihydrogen Monoxide.  Some of the more knowledgeable of you also know it as:
Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide

Or simply Hydric acid

Every day all of you do absolutely nothing to protect yourself, permit friends and family (children!) to expose themselves, and support politicians who routinely permit the more pernicious aspects of this chemical additive to permeate our lives and impregnate our culture.  For shame, f13 Community... for shame.

I blame religion.  But in the interests of public service I share with you this Quick Informational Reference:

What are some of the dangers associated with DHMO?
Each year, Dihydrogen Monoxide is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths and is a major contributor to millions upon millions of dollars in damage to property and the environment. Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:

• Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
• Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
• Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
• DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
• Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
• Contributes to soil erosion.
• Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
• Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
• Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
• Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
• Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere.
• Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.

Jesus, I hope Bush doesn't see this. We will have a "Not A Drop Left Behind" Act in nothing flat.

Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:

It's also a (the) universal solvent -- able to dissolve both acids and bases.

Shame on me? I'm just an innocent water and wine drinking kind of guy....Here to celebrate Bob Goldthwait.

I'll have a soda every once in a while and all that, but I'm not too crazy about it. Still, acting like it's something that's going to destroy the fabric of our culture is a little too Mary Baker Eddy for me.

And another goes down to Signe's "Is that XXX" joke.

Anywho, Bobcat being married to Nikki Coxx is a travesty.  It's even worse that he picked her up on the "Unhappily Ever After" set.  I take solace in the fact that  he looks like absolute shit, as anyone who's seen the CSI where he was on can attest.

[stray]

But he's funny as hell.....And hated by many for putting a flame to Jay Leno's couch.

That counts for something, doesn't it?

[Sky]

Hmm. I thought Penn & Teller came up with the dihydrogen monoxide bit on their own. Bastards (unless the website is ripping them off).

[Daydreamer]

Na, its been around in science nerd circles since at least the 70s, since one of my profs remembers it from when he was a lowly undergrad.

[Paelos]

Scientists are always finding a way to tell me something is killing me. At this point, even if they are right, if they don't have a current fix, I'm not interested. And, "stop using/eating/taking this" without a viable substitute fails that test.

[schild]

I especially hate those scientists who come up to me at breakfast and remind me that butter is better than the alternatives...again. They're like the Jehovah's Witnesses of rundown dirty diners. Assholes.

Just point out that the number one cause of death is life.  Hey, statistics don't lie, or something...

[Strazos]

I don't care, she is unfairly hot, and for this I feel slightly...slighted.

[Hanzii]

Just point out that the number one cause of death is life.  Hey, statistics don't lie, or something...

Well speaking from a statistic point of view, death is surely not a certainty.

More than half the humans ever born on this planet in the entire history of homo sapiens is still very much alive today (speaking in absolute numbers counting every birth and every death) - this could be interpreted to mean that your chance of ever dying is less than 50%... or something.

There are 3 kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics.

Yeah, but you could classify life as a terminal disease, since every case to date has ended in death, couldn't you?

It's all how you care to spin the numbers...

I say we ban cars. Just had another senior citizen plow into a building last week.
