    Water is so far above everything else that EVERY SINGLE SODA is forced to add around 80% water.

    I mean, you didn’t include anything like tea, so it’s kinda just easy. Fizzy, calorie-pumped, nutritionless, cheap-dopamine-providing, overpriced and overpackaged water is pretty low hanging fruit.

          O Holy One, Pepsiman, who blesses our teeth with holes shaped in your great symbol’s image.

          Grant us the strength to drive these CokeCrusaders from our lands, led by the dastardly KredeSeraf.

          May our rivers once again flow ripe with the chemical by-products of your majestic factories.

          Dulcis. Immutabilis. Pepsi.

    I’d fight the shit out of you but I am afraid you are just too well hydrated and I stand no chance.

    Drinking water gives me acid reflux, always has. Which is weird because fanta is a lot more acidic and doesn’t do that.

      There’s common misconseption that higher acid in your stomach causes acid reflux, however it is actually the oposite. There’s sphincter in your esophagus which contracts when there’s enough acidity and opens when there’s lack of. So when you are having bad reflux, try increasing your stomach acid by either chewing gum, eating sour or eating something bitter. Avoid drinking large amount of water after heavy meals, since you are diluting acid. Also less smoking and drinking helps (quitting smoking really helped for me. Those over the counter tablets containing carbonate salts actually make it even worse, since they neutralize stomach acid, when you want to increase it. Protein pump inhibitors, such as ranitidine block production of stomach acid completely, however it really messes up with your protein intake. Common pain killers, such as ibuprofen, aspirin mess with yiur stomach too

      Does it burn? If I drink cold water, I tend to get esophageal spasms. My heart to my jaw gets this tension and pain, but it doesn’t burn. It tends to be worse with normal sipping amounts rather than chugging like a hamster. It can happen with beer but for whatever reason, soda never causes it for me. Probably something about the drink rate or usually having soda at room temp. Not trying to tell you how your body works, just offering up info no one I know knows about.

        Yes it burns at the plexus and throat. I find it less so when I filter the (bottled) water in a brita filter (cartridged filters) but then it tastes funny. So I actually never drink water.

        What is even weirder if I drink those water bottle with a slight hint of flavor, no reflux. Might be a mental problem?

        I don’t experience what you have.

      How about whether or not the earliest-known literate civilizations in the ancient Near East were of each other’s existence?

      Oh hey, it’s just a girl.

      I kinda always knew she’d end up my ex girlfriend, and that shit was bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S. Don’t speak, I know just what you’re thinking. It didn’t happen. Well. You’re right. It didn’t.

      God, I wish I could stop but I just can’t.
