I was at a local burger spot last night and when filling my drink up I remembered back to when I was 11'ish. Me and everyone I knew use to get a "Suicide" whenever we got something a drink the fountain machine. Not sure what they were called elsewhere. But it was basically a shot of every soda the machine had mixed together, minus the diet stuff. I wasn't allowed to have many Sugary drinks so when I got the chance this was one of my big things to get.

being 34 now I knew it would taste horrible, but I got one for old times sake. It was GOD AWFUL I don't see how I use to drink these, and I loved them lol. When I was 10 I thought Coke should come out with a 2 liter version haha. I do have fond memories of going to Burger King, or where ever and having to explain to the person there how to make my "Suicide" when I ordered it. Anyone here use to guzzle down the Suicides?

I don't know why I posted this, I'm bored though...

LOL, my kids still do the "suicide" every now and then.

Yeah, this was one of those things you did because you thought you were being smart and creative, but it actually was pretty awful 🙂

On the other hand, Arby's has Light Lemonade and Sobe Citrus which mix VERY well together (energy boost without all the sugar).

I miss how Christmas used to feel back in my childhood days. Despite suffering from depression at an early age, the overall feeling during Christmas season made me so happy. God I remember how exciting the night before Christmas was. I would go to bed early so that the next morning would come faster.

Growing up sucks.

I hear you. Now I spend all night putting crap together for the kids, worrying about managing schedules, cooking dinner...it's almost not fun anymore. Hopefully the kids are enjoying it though.
