I wish I shared the 'ugh' view of soda.

Sadly, I start shaking if I havent had any Coke for a few days. :(

I am trying to at least move myself onto diet sodas.

Of course I SHOULD drink water. But, BLEH, why the hell would anyone do that
if they had a choice otherwise. I literally feel *sick* if I drink a glass of water.

I can't go a day without drinking a few cans of Pepsi




And aside from a few old people I have never heard the word pop used to describe soda

That is how I was. So I decided I better quit because it had too much of a hold on me. So I quit. First couple of weeks were pretty hard, but it gets easier after that.

I also watched Requiem for a Dream, which helped me to quit (that just showed me how bad an addiction was).

Lets do the best of both worlds.... PODA! :D Not pop, not soda, nothing in between!

<--- I called it pop, until I went to Texas and everyone jumped my chit. Forced into submission, I Then called it soda, or called any pop 'Coke' "Ya'all want a Coke?" Sure. "What kinda ya want?" Uh... Coke? I moved back to PA and everyone made fun of me calling it soda. So now I call it "Liquid Flavored Carbonated Bubbly sh|t"

i buy pepsi in bulk from Office Depot. They sell 12 packs for $2.99 with no charge for deposit in michigan, which is strange. Anyways, i end up getting it for between 5 and 9 cents a can after coupons and refunds. Less than bottled water :)

<I'm a level 5 vegan...I won't eat anything that casts a shadow>

Thats gotta be the stupidest thing i've ever heard. You've gotta be kidding.

There isn't a single thing in the world that doesnt cast a shadow when shown in sunlight? Even if you dig up roots, after they are out of the ground it still shows a shadow. I'm still trying to figure this one out.

<< Pop? The only people who call it "pop" live in double-wides and eat bologna and mayonnaise on Wonder bread. >>


Ummm no. I own a 3200 square foot house and don't like Wonder Bread, prefer rye. Calling it pop is a regional thing. Either soda or pop is correct since the actual name of the stuff is soda pop.
