This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The number of people I know in America who "can't" drink just water and have to have some syrup flavored drink instead is astounding. Dude, you're complaining about your weight. Maybe cut back on the sugar for one drink per day.

Depending on the region the soda may actually be healthier, we have looped right back to people avoiding water because it's dangerous but instead of parasites it's pollution and parasites.

Note I do drink water but only from my fridge with a high quality filter, tap water is a coin flip and if I can taste anything other than water I'm assuming it's contaminated.

You can buy bottled water. It is still cheaper than soda.
