None nowadays.

Caffeine withdrawal irritability = fail



Oh very well, I bought a package of green tea last week. I won't go through it quickly though.

Also, the reason why some people call all sodapops "coke" is that they are likely from, or were raised by people from Georgia. Coca-Cola was founded in Atlanta and for many years, a huge number of Georgians were employed by the company, and the fact that pretty much the whole state was a "company town" for coke, is why the use of the word is so widespread there as the general term.
I think this may be a South thing? I experienced it in Texas, too:

"What kind of Coke do you want?" "A Sprite."

I'm also curious if you were using "coke" as an all encompassing term there or if you were actually referring to coke because you then used the term fizzy drink.

Worked in McDonald's for a year and three months and I will definitely say when someone said "coke" I had no hesitation ringing up a literal coke. Using coke in place of soda/pop is even more irritating to me than using the word pop itself rather than soda.

pet peeve, sorry

oh and those people that are like "I'll take a diet" ughhhlka;jfaklmakc

What's wrong with ordering a diet soda? The regular versions tend to have quite a few empty calories.

Diet soda is disgusting. I doubt it is that much more healthy.

By coke, I was referring to the drink coke, as suggested in the poll lol. I would never bother with the other kind of 'coke'!

Right, but the term "coke" in the poll is incorrectly labeled and is actually what you would consider "soda" or "fizzy water" and not actually coca cola.

I don't mean cocaine.

That's fine, I needed a bit more clarity then heh. But yeah, in general, fizzy drinks such as coke, soda etc. are pretty common sources of caffeine for me. This is my last post on the matter lol!

I Prefer Dr. Pepper. Drinking Dr. Pepper is an intellectual experience that only the chosen few can understand.

It generally isn't. While it often contains less actual sugar, other chemicals are thrown in to mimick the same taste, which often times aren't healthier than just going with the sugar.

It's kind of funny because diet x tends to be a lot less tasty than x - at least from my limited experience, and the less limited experiences of people around me.
