My ex was so fucking retarded his dipshit ass shared a meme with me once about Coca-Cola washing blood off the road and he was like "oh my God that's what people put in their body 👁️👄👁️" in his gay faggy twink bottom voice and I was just like he can't be this fucking stupid can he, but he was... lemon juice is used to clean stuff too does that mean it's bad for your body you fucking retard?

obviously I'm not saying Coca-Cola is great for your body or something mostly due to the amount of sugar but to pretend that it's some kind of drain cleaner conspiracy to get people to drink poison is retarded

@Jazzy_Butts conspiracy, no
it absolutely is full of toxic, corrosive shit.
ergo the perfect example of industrial waste being used as filler ingredients and "natural flavoring" in our food.

also... the og recipe had cocaine in it, to make people addicted consumers regardless of whether they liked cola
@Jazzy_Butts they aren't "trying to poison you", they're very careful about diluting the poison enough it doesn't count as poison.

if not for our stomach acid being so hecking strong, coke, mountain dew, etc, would fucking dissolve us from the inside. we can drink it because we are more acidic than they are.

@bitterblossom it's not that he was wrong about Coca-Cola being bad for your body it was that he was such a fucking dumb illogical retard for coming to that conclusion because it can wash stuff, water washes stuff too

@Jazzy_Butts i want to point out here bc i'll probably never get the chance again:

i have drunk from a power washer before.

it is painful.

it blasted most of the dirt off my face almost instantly.

i will not be doing that again for fear of it popping my eyeballs or stripping the flesh from my face.
@Jazzy_Butts water is dangerous

it hits like concrete

and this obsession with "staying hydrated" has gotten side-railed away from being healthy to poisoning people with too much water and no electrolytes/salt and then all that mineral water jack is just more excuses to feed us industrial wastes.

you wanna drink healthy, distill your water. all of it. and keep a balanced intake of salt and other stuff to go with it. and dont sit there chugging water bottles all fucking day unless you're doing heavy labor and actually sweating/pissing that much. (saying that as a guy who used to flood hazmat suits and boots with enough sweat to literally refill several bottles every day)

@bitterblossom the bit at the end about the suits reminds me that the guy who played Herman Munster in The Munsters had to drink like gallons of fucking lemonade to keep his electrolytes up because he would sweat so much under the lights in that fucking suit, the things people suffer through for work

@Jazzy_Butts never seen that but it's legit. just drinking straight water is not good.

but then, most of the older fatties doing that sorta work are americans with heavily salted diets so it sorta balances out.

gatorade got shit on for a while because of its sugar and salt but it's still literally the best thing to drink for "sports" and that sorta stuff that makes you sweat.

also eat bananas, you need potassium.

at the cellular level, we need a certain amount of salt and potassium, but salt gets too concentrated and it's potassium that basically swaps places with salt molecules to keep that balance. bananas are cheap as fuck too so unless somebody is somehow allergic to them, everybody should be eating more bananas.

@bitterblossom Gatorade is great but only if you're actually doing stuff like you said because when I was a fatty as a kid and I was drinking Gatorade and doing nothing my ankles swelled the fuck up because of the salt
