You’re comparing the caffeine content of a 30oz drink to a 16 oz and 12 oz respectively. Red bull is 111. Monster is 86. I had gotten these charged lemonades regularly before these lawsuits. Know what was on the machine when you went to get it? The exact caffeine content. The entire time. Always. It was pretty clearly marketed as having about as much caffeine as a cup of coffee if you drank a cup of coffee worth. If these specifically need to be marketed as energy drinks, then so does coffee. A standard cup of coffee has 100-150 mg of caffeine.

The first time I had a full 30 oz serving of the mango one I felt like I was vibrating. I decided from that point on to only get half and fill the rest with unsweetened tea. There absolutely should be clearly marked caffeine content in things. And we live in a litigious society. I’m pissed because now I have to ask one of the employees to get these for me instead of me just being able to serve myself…like I can their coffee.

Kinda crazy to see Stanford, KY on here! I did a semester long practicum at Lincoln county highschool.

Working out at the gym to fit my underwear

And it makes the sunset really pink, because of the air pollution! But the the main question is, is it worth it?

Well then you owe me a dumpling out dumpling equivalent.

It’s been a minute, but the guy wrote an open letter that was long enough to put in book form, A Letter to a Christian Nation.

Disclaimer: I haven’t kept up with his stuff since the late 2000’s so can’t speak to more recent offerings of his or his views, just figured it’s worth pointing out.

That’s enough Jerry, now you’re just playing around.

Inny Minny miny…?

Look at what you went ahead and did; made me learn something when I was just trying to make a joke.

But seriously, super interesting and appreciate the serious reply!

I don’t like that comment at all.

It’s it because you can’t trust the Dutch?

The other piece that can come after this is the eventual gaslighting where they deny they said it. I can say that, personally, there have been times where I have begun to doubt my perspective because of the strength of their denial and my openness to examine why I think what I do (not all the time if I’m being fair). The amount of effort that goes into learning that it is a tactic with the desired outcome to be bend people to their will can be a hard learned skill.

Surely to fuck the FAA will resist such a move that is based on a bottom line of a corporation and not on safety, right?..right?!

I did a practicum in a federal prison for a year and somehow my supervisor and I got onto the topic of bathroom use (probably just talking about the reality of incarcerated live). I’ll never forget it because it was such a candid moment for him when he said: real thugs sit. Nothing else added, just let it be said like that. People that don’t clean up after themselves definitely grinds my gears.

What kind of damned animal doesn’t rinse their dishes after washing them with soap?! I refuse to accept there are people out there doing this and if there are: I am not mad, I am just deeply disappointed in you.

Hear that subtle mandolin?

Same here, it’s been a fun experience.
