Lord preserve us from “experts”:

‘An addiction expert has accused soft drink companies of “drug dealing” in the wake of the death of a 30-year-old woman who drank 7.5 litres of Coca-Cola a day…’
Of course, the woman wasn’t just a fuckwit who ignored the commonsense “everything in moderation”  approach….now her sad case is fodder for the zealots.

    Apparently she also smoked and drank too much liquor. But: The evil multi-national must be blamed! She is an idiot and her end seems befitting. (I don’t mean she had a big arse!) :whoop

    How do you drink 7.5 liters of any soft drink in a day?

    :wtf

      I used to drink a 2.5 in my lunch break no worries. I only did so because Onehunga water tasted appaling and Coke was the next cheapest option… :oops:

        I can chug a 2l hot,what’s the big deal???

        Maybe she had another type Coke addiction?

    No one should drink coke straight,it should be diluted with rum.

    Don’t worry – they are just softening us up for an excise duty on soft drinks – to “send a price signal”, as they say, in order to stop the poor from drinking them.

    In other words more tax for them to misspend.

    What they will not tell you is that if you drink excessive amounts of water over a prolonged period you will have the same problems. The coke is probably better as it contains some sodium, and with water intoxication (essentially this is what she had) you get a low sodium and go dilly first.

    I wonder the condition of her 8 welfare children, conceived in a coke storm. I guess it makes a change from foetal alcohol syndrome and will agitate the useless child protection agencies. :popcorn

    There goes the “coke adds life” campaign :cheers

    Headlines in today’s NZ Herald tell the sad story of a guy who stuck his weekly $2300 paypacket strauight into the poker machines every week, ewith the attendant bleating about whose fault that might be (starting with the pokies). I’ve never done anything like that – I suppose that’s the poker machines’ fault too. :evil:

  9. I noticed recently that there is a war on sugar now, with shrill calls for taxes on it and what not. Personally I’ve cut back on sugar and I like the results, but it doesn’t mean we need to start taxing sugar and all that. As you said so well (fuckwit – classic), people need to wake up to their own stupidity, or pay the price.

    And what’s the bet this addiction ‘expert’ is in favor of legalizing the hardcore coke.
