I genuinely think... How did people live back then... How weren't they severely malnourished...
A lot of those jello monstrosities were filled with fruit and veggies.
I believe everything would be right again in the world if we started making cocaine-cola again
Oof dont threaten me with a good time. Throw in those separate tiny beds too.
I thought it was because they wanted to get railed over the kitchen table with their face in the mashed potatoes.
The wife or the husband?
Lol
Is this a coke fueled creative way of telling your husband what you want? ;)
I’d say it’s more of a benzo fueled passive aggressive go fuck yourself because I don’t have equal rights of citizenship

For some reason, I'm reminded of sharpies.
Wow I have not seen this gif in years
We don‘t talk about the sharpie incidents here. Please.
Username...uhhh, checks out
Hmmm... in the US, I think cocaine cola was illegal in the 50s, but you could get amphetamines pretty easily...
It gets worse. Coca-cola removed the coke because of racism.
oh it gets even worse than that. the coca leaves are shipped to Jersey so the cocaine can be removed before use in the drink! source.
Believe it or not it gets worse than that. Santa Claus was invented by Coca Cola and created the red and white color scheme because it matched the colors of the can.
They did this to try to come up with a way to convince people to by a cold drink in the winter.
Santa Claus existed before coke ads, he just traditionally wore green.
That's not worse.
Oh, but it gets else. Coca Cola can be used to both clean your toilets AND moisten your cakes!
hmmm.... historically, coca leaves were holy to the indigenous people of the andes and still play an important cultural role. ok, that's all I'm gonna argue.
And beserkers chugged a cocktail of psychedelic mushrooms and Odin knows what else, they then went apeshit or went into a dream walk and bashed some Saxons skull in. Drugs have played important roles within various cultures and traditions through the millenia, so long as you aren't being an ass about it to the cultures it doesn't seem particularly relevant to what someone outside said traditions does with it.

they took the cocaine out of the cola waaay before that
You could put it back in yourself though
I'm good with the meth for weight loss and benzos for sleep. Someone else can have the other parts. Hard drugs with no questions asked, please.
The trade off for the weight loss is a face that looks 30 years older 🤮. The reason people in old videos look so old is because of drugs and cigarettes
After a lobotomy you won't be going anywhere by yourself.
Let alone enjoying recreational drugs.
I'm pretty sure they were popping barbiturates back then. Benzos weren't a thing until the 60s.

I think everyone wants to live in a world where it is socially acceptable to pop benzos and do cocaine (although I'm pretty sure it was speed back then, but I'd still take it).
How about no?
Coca-Cola literally used to contain cocaine. It started life as a patent medicine made from coca leaf and kola nut, and expanded from there. By the 1950s they at least on paper were already cocaine free - they switched to "spent" leaves in 1904 (leaves that already had cocaine extracted and so only had what was left due to inefficiencies in the process) and later switched to extract made by a third party that was invested in being thorough in removing the cocaine since they were selling that for medical use as well so any cocaine in the extract sold to Coca-Cola was a loss in their higher-dollar product.
