That is probably be cause youre basically drinking soda water (plain carbonated water). Which gets a nasty flavor from carbonic acid.

Definitely hold out longer for more than just a sandwich. Anytime I came over to fix a friend's computer, I got unlimited soda and a dinner (once it was steak).

siftbot is broken. like soo broken.

I met him in a swamp down in Dagobah
Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda
S-O-D-A, soda

I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said "Yoda"
Y-O-D-A, Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I've been around, but I ain't never seen
A guy who looks like a muppet, but he's wrinkled and green
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand
How he can lift me in the air just by raising his hand
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I left home just a week before
And I've never ever been a Jedi before
But Obi Wan, he set me straight, of course
He said, "Go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force"

Well I'm not the kind that would argue with Ben
So it looks like I'm gonna start all over again
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

So I used the Force
I picked up a box
I lifted some rocks
While I stood on my head
But, I won't forget what Yoda said

He said, "Luke, stay away from the darker side
And if you start to go astray, let the Force be your guide"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

"I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed
But remember, if you kill him, then you'll be unemployed"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playing this part 'till I'm old and gray

The long-term contract I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
Oh with my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

I was gonna guess that there was something artificial about the hand holding the soda. He pretty much never moves it except slightly at the end to grab a glass.

Look, I may seem like a cynic here, but I'm a real softy when it comes to kids, and they say cute, funny stuff all the time. My point is that this chainmail is fake. Kids didnt say this stuff, its just garbage thats passed around. And that counts, to me, because if this is just stuff a 40 year old man has made up, then the quotes arent cute at all, and theres no point in going "Aaawwww thats so cuteycutecute of all those toddlers saying that! I dont know where they come up with it!!" Well "they" didnt. They dont even exist, these kids.

Passing around unsourced cute "facts" like this is a stupid meme on the net that should be stomped out. Fine, this one is completely harmless, but they arent all like that. like just the other day I saw this bullshit about how you can die from drinking straight from a soda can, supported by some anectdotal sob-story about someone who knew someones dad's cousin it really happened to.

The same method is frequently used to spread garbage about vaccines and actual medicine and promoting hogwash.

Bottom line: I dont find stuff that imaginary kids said cute.

really disappointed in stewart. I think we should take care of people. Upper class is doing better, middle class is getting smaller, poor is being taxed more. Most people do not under stand what a semi-automatic gun qualify as.

Hey America! If you really want to "save" lives how about getting the fat asses off the couch. 20 kids dead... it is terrible, but how about texting drivers, super-size meals, buckets of movie size sodas?

I can't wait for the next bandwagon to jump on.

Lyrics:
Im gonna smoke some weed, only got 20 dollas in my pocket
Imma huntin, looking for a pot shop, this is fucking awesome!

Walk into my house like what up, i got some good pot
I'm just pumped up got some herb from the pot shop
Ice in my fridge it used to be frosty
My friends like "Damn, that's a stoned ass donkey!"
Rollin' in hella high, looking like it's fifa time
Dominating all my friends, as I eat some chili fries
Draped in a snuggie with my girl sitting next to me
Probably shouldn't have had a big gulp full of ice tea
PISS!
But shit it was 99 cents!

I be blazin and smokin it
Bout to go and get some munchie snacks, passing up on those cracker jacks
Reeces Pieces are where it's at, Gotta get me some soda pop
Cotton mouth has been creeping up
But can't remember where I put my keys,
Yeah, that's what's up.
Imma take your grandpa's ride, Imma take your grandpa's ride
No for real, ask your grandpa, Can I take his 65?
Deville Cruisin to my local Publix
Nothing better than rolling with 2 super fly chicks!
They had frozen burritos, I bought frozen burritos
I bought some Ben and Jerry's, then I bought some Cheetos
Hello, Hello, my main man Obama
A couple states have just reformed their laws on marijuana
Whatcha gonna do, send the feds there? Hell no!
The DEA's would be like "Ah, they got Volcano"

What you know about the science of marijuana?
What you know about people suffering from glaucoma?
They need it, they need it, it helps them with their condition
If don't believe me, then just ask some eye physicians
Thank your granddad for voting for that guy Richard
Nixon is the President who made the plant illegal
But science is now showing that its medicine for people
And the private sector's fighting to keep all of that illegal
Alcohol and Tobacco, Pharmaceutical, Prisons
I'll take those four major lobby groups and fight those motherfuckers
They making money day and night, all those motherfuckers
And bribing congress out of sight, all those motherfuckers
They be like, "Oh, it's immoral and unhealthy"
I'm like how many people are you making wealthy
Anti-marijuana lobbies are making all kinds of profits
And they don't want you to stop it cause of all the special interests
I call that getting swindled and pimped, shit
I call that getting tricked by the government, that law's hella old
So its time to update it, regulate it, and then get it under state control
Peep Game, look into my political telescope
Think it's going to stay like this forever, nah, it hella won't, nah, it hella won't.

Let's end the war on drugs, It's time to pull the plug
These special interest groups are nothing more than corporate thugs
Let's end the war on weed, the people have agreed.
These special interest groups have kept these laws with bribery

Imma smoke some weed, only got 20 dollas in my pocket
Imma huntin, looking for a pot shop, this is fucking awesome!

I agree, and it goes beyond statistics and more to the core ideals that make a country. Fact is, even if I showed you clear evidence that soda pop basically kills people in the long run, that it has no redeemable value and is responsible for 10x the health related problems as guns, that still is absolutely no justification for passing laws about soda consumption.

The rule of law by statistical analysis and utopian/utilitarian calculus is very troubling to me. And while my personal decisions for my own well being use a form of this model, to start making laws based on this very relative and personal framework would be a travesty, and it is seemingly the only model I see used when talking about gun control both for and against.

It turns out, having the freest society might also be the most dangerous...but so the fuck what. What if it turned out that theocratic dictatorship results in the least amount of civilian deaths from guns, shall we burn down the vestibules of liberty and freedom for a single data point of valuation. Most arguments both for and against gun control come from this kind of marginal, statistical methodology that I find appalling in a discussion over laws.

Let's talk about death. Ban fast food, ban alcohol, ban the bucket soda. America is unhealthy and living a consumer/me first life style. The problem isn't with the guns -- it is with the people. It's the "have's" and the "have not's". The divide has only grown. I'm so tired of the gun issue. How about talking about cars. There are far more traffic deaths than gun deaths in the US. Hell there are a lot more deaths from a few kids to bullets. I hate saying it, but we look a blind eye to it.

Go sue GM, Ford, McDonalds, <insert factory>

For far as Europe vs. US... How does a young country of US fair against the centuries of mishaps the collective group of europe have made?

At least we tried to learn from your fuck ups.

There was a guy drinking a soda =)

They sell Jaffa cakes in that sized box? I can only ever find the individual packages here in the States, and that's when I can even find them at all.

That's it. I'm moving to England. Would you take in an anglophilic Yank? Is anglophilic even a word? I promise to leave any bad "American" behaviors here (minus my inability to use a dictionary).

*edit: Doh, I just read the tags. They make Jaffa SODA??? (quick Wikipedia search) Aw...I guess it's a Finnish soda. Doesn't matter, I'll still be closer if I move to England.

When New York becomes Nuked York they won't have 20oz. cups of soda to hide behind.
