For Coca-Cola
you guys see this shit going on at DePaul university recently?
some girl dressed up as a raver girl, covered her face with purple paint and a name tag "blacky" (for blackout drunk)
and students are protesting "Meet our demands, we are not safe"
oh, DePauw univesity?
oh it's from last month
I heard Tim was considering doing a doc on gamergate. Is this true?
He should.
A lot of us only know part of the whole story.
emily is researching gamergate
Don't trust the wiki. It was written by nothing but sjws
I hope she enjoys digging through archive sites.
I do wonder how it's gonna go though.
Apparently the modern interpretation of the movement was that it was started by lies.
eg. Quinn never slept with anyone, his ex lied and was an abusive asshole, the review was unrelated to her relationship with game journalists, etc.
And that's widely accepted now. I've heard it being repeated in several places at this point.
HOLYSHIT
listening to TWIS
this is beyond a joke now
Habitual Soda Drinker - ADHD, Caffeine has a similar but more mild effect compared to Adderall, which I refuse to take, but that's a side point...
I can tell you all about sodas.
In the US, Coca-cola comes in 5 varieties.
"Classic Taste", red label, which is sweetened using HFCS.
"Coke Life", green label , my drink of choice, which utilizes Stevia to reduce the amount of sugar it takes to sweeten it. (And it DOES include Sugar as well, diabetics beware.) Stevia gives it a slightly bitter aftertaste, and IMHO, a more rounded out flavor.
"Diet Coke", Silver label, uses Aspertame, and another compound with a chemical name.
"Coke Zero", Black Label, also uses Aspertame.
And then you've got the "Mexican Coke". These are Coca Colas that jumped the border, come in glass bottles, are 100% sweetened with Sugar. I tend to take one into every weekend, my tea-totaller equivalent of a beer on a Friday night.
The main reason why sodas are typically sweetened with Corn Syrup as opposed to Sugar in the united states is due to government subsidies for the corn industry, something uniquely American. There are subsidies for Corn, Wheat, and Soy, which is why you will find at least one of these products in just about anything you buy in the United States.
Also, if it's ever coming up on Easter, and you spot a 2-liter bottle of Coca Cola with a yellow cap, That coca-cola is sweetened with table sugar, as corn is not considered kosher for Passover.
You ever try jarritos?
They taste funky.
The fruit ones are fine and all
but their cola is terrible.
Fair. I only go for the fruit stuff. The orange ones are infinitely better than the american brands.
If you ever find yourself at an Asian market, I suggest picking up a bottle of Royal Tru Orange.
If they've got it.
It's an orange soda sold in the Phillippines.
Noted.
Conservativism is the counterculture now. Who woulda thunk.
Not so much that, as it is that people naturally turn more conservative with age.
Keep in mind, the same old people who voted for the racist sexist homophobic xenophobic warmongering piece of shit Donald Trump
were hippies not too long ago.
True but. I'm hearing there's an upsurge of young conservatives in the US right now.
of course, they want to take everyones money until they are the ones without money
Oh, absolutely.
Doubt it's a majority yet but it's definitely something to note.
