What the hell does that have to do with anything? I;m not against drinking, but if you replace two 2-liters of coke with a shitload of beer you're probably gonna be a flaming douchebag. Very few people I know that drink shitloads of beer don't become jackasses. Oh and are you saying alcohol doesn't make you more dangerous to others? LOL
I would say that actually, because it lacks some very important qualifiers. Like, "vast quantities of alcohol" and "in the presence of heavy machinery or motorized vehicles". Because see, without them, you sound like a leaky cunt of a straight edge suffragette. Take the pole out of your ass and get yourself a drink.
Way to make unfounded assumptions, asshole.
Replacing a soda addiction by becoming an alcoholic is retarded. That's what was suggested, and that's what I was replying to. So how about YOU stop being a dick and pretending that alcohol has no serious side effects.
I don't assume shit when I observe that you sound like a straight edge faggot without asserting that you are one. I'm gonna go a bit further and speculate on how much of a brain dead illiterate you must be, and that's gonna be loosely supported by pointing out that anyone with any intellectual faculties in place would realize with no difficulty that drinking beer does not necessarily entail being a fucking alcoholic. See? Not assuming anything.
You're seriously using faggot as an insult? I knew you were trolling but this is pathetic.

At least we kept it funny with picturesYou should all chill out and drink some tea (with milk and 2 sugars, ohsnap).
Nah it degraded to shit after our gentlemanly duel.

I don't need to cool down. I'm quite relaxed, sitting here and enjoying my

I always thought tea w/milk would taste horrible...until I actually tried it. Shit's awesome.
I wouldn't be too worried about the sugar intake w/ tea as its only 15~ kcal/spoon. Besides, many people drink tea without any sugar(especially green tea lovers) so you can do that as well. Either way, its much much more healthier than soda.
You don't have to give up soda completely either, can just limit it to a glass/day.
When I was waiting tables (6 years for Romano's Macaroni Grill, no wonder I now hate the general American populous) we could drink soda for nothing, and I drank an extremely unhealthy amount.
The problem moreso was the caffeine addiction for me though. 3 12 oz. cups of Coke over the course of a shift made me a little nuts, and eventually I grew such a tolerance to it, it'd have no effect on me. I started getting weird headaches and stopped sleeping through the night. I cut out the caffeine by drinking gingerale instead of coke, and then swapped over to iced tea.
I only drink soda when I go out to eat now (if I'm not having a glass of wine or something)- don't even drink it at home. I drink water and iced tea mostly now.
The problem now is my coffee consumption. >_>
And for hot tea-

so i found this: The Switch : Make the Switch the other day at the store, they are actually pretty tasty, not as carbonated as a soda, but much more healthy for you and doesnt contain any of that bull shit you find in soda (nor caffiene...) im drinking a black cherry one right now and it aint too bad
Since the thread may have a chance of switching back to tea's, two quick questions.
1. Hot Tea or Iced Tea? (which is better for your health)
2. Suggestions for tea based on question 1.
Go
So I managed to give up diet cola for a bit but then I discovered I was eating far too many Timbits as a replacement so I'm back on diet cola. I've tried vitamin water, sparkling water, and tea. All yucky! I'm going to go look for this Switch stuff though. Not sure if it's available around here.
So basically, you lack self control. Gotcha!
In this area, I think you might be right. Although I do tend to buy a lot of cute ankle socks on impulse too...
