hahah didnt Imeet you at the tailgate? Im not THAT fat bro. Im not a sugar guy either. I dont drink sugary beverage and my only sweet tooth weakness s for ice cream. One thougt I had about this is, as most said, fat asses will be fat asses and order two beverages instead of one. But over te years, the new generations will see 16 oz as a normal beverage instead of fuckin 48. So I htink eventually, we will drink less. Sidenote---if youre drinkin more than 16 ounces of soda at a sitting, youre a fuckin fat retard. The popcorn size at the movies is ludicrous, the gibangerous super kit kat with 68 delicisou chocolate covered wafers is insane and so on. Im not a big movie guy but I went about 5 months ago. The girl sitting next to me...who was HOT.....but young.....her vag prolly still tasted like pee...but anyway......she opted for the twizzler snack purchase....there had to be 235 strawberry-flavored wax strips in the package. She could have shingled a roof with it. Why is that neccesary?
The market dictates that. If people want smaller sizes they will buy them, always have. If they want big they buy big, let them. Why do we need rules for that?
Pretty stupid if you ask me. Eating healthy is a choice, and if people chose not to, they will experience the negative effects. I avoid soda like the plague, but most people are too dumb to do it. I could see taking soda out of schools, but for adults, what is the purpose of regulating something, specifically for the stupid? How will this prevent somebody from simply ordering 2 drinks? Are they going to have to inspect your car and make sure somebody else is with you? We don't need this nanny state nonsense. If you want people to be more healthy, encourage sports and other activities in the community, and lower the price of organic fruits and vegetables. Don't take away their freedom to enjoy a big cold soda on a hot day. People will still eat / drink unhealthy, regardless of these regulations. No, it wasn't the fact that you eat fried food everyday, it's that extra 8 ounces of soda in each drink. What a joke.
Although I don't really think these kinds of regulations are necessary, there's something to be said for the correlation, if not at least partial causation, over time between the size of sodas and obesity. If reducing drink sizes reduces health care expenses to the city due to reducing obesity then maybe the benefit outweighs the harm. The harm seems minimal; if people want more soda they can buy multiples so the only harm really comes to the businesses that make more money selling those large formats.
I know your not fatman :lol: I was just kidding with you since you had a thread about losing weight. The blue dildo is still my favorite though :rofl2:
This is bullshit. I try not to drink soda to begin with, but how can you do this? I can totally understand regulating it in places like schools, parks, other places that the city controls, but to tell a movie theater or something they can't sell large drinks? That's insane. Moral of the story, drink water. And beer.
I think you can drink as big a soda as you like just so long as I don't have to pay your medical bills when you have diabetes.
Again, I do wish there were some way to counter the market, and marketing, power of hte companies that encourage people to eat unhealthy foods, or more precisely food products about which insufficient information is available to provide your average consumer with even basic information regarding the product's dangers. But Bloomberg is too in love with nanny state procedures. Next he will be trying to outlaw sex selective abortions. Just watch.
Who wants to open the 1st Soda speak easy with me? I will set up my soda still in the woods. Soda shinning has been going on in my family for decacdes.
Agreed. And even though I think healthcare should be privatized anyways, it never will be, so that's not an option.
Exactly. Same should apply to heavy alcohol drinkers with liver problems and smokers with lung cancer. Personal responsibility has completely gone out the window in this society, however.
rofl on the news a viewer sent in an email saying this. "i picture people going to speak easy's for soda now"
New show on history channel "Soda Shiners" takes you deep into the dangerous world of soda shinning. ... "Hell we sell our soda in big gulp cups" said long time soda shiner Johnny D from NYC.
