Star Trek: The Next Generation : The lefties on trek

Re: The lefties on trek

idk but other areas the diet sodas are there.

IDK about the diet drinks in my school's neighborhood other than the regular 'clientele' just not buying any of it. My friend and I even had to ask intently [like explain ourselves] for personal bottles of seltzer.

it's almost come to the point of getting soda stream so we can lug the liter bottles to work with us.

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: The lefties on trek

I hate diet sodas. I got a Diet Coke out of a soda machine once accidentally, I almost vomited all over. Now Coke Zero or Pepsi Max are fine. They're diet and have zero calories.

RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time. RIP Matt Roberts. You were great.

Re: The lefties on trek

there is something wrong with diet COKE. it just tastes off. Diet pepsi -- there is something about it that is addicting. but I prefer regular Coke to regular pepsi.


and to me >anything< ZERO and MAX >anything< are horrendous. absolute piss.


What I usually do is mix diet pepsi with regular coke. it is freaking amazing.


and I want to kill whoever took diet coke with lemon off the market. diet with lime just isn't the same although regular coke with lime is okay.



Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: The lefties on trek

Ooh, a lot to go through here. Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi are piss to me. Bleech. If I'm gonna have diet, it'll be Zero or Max. Because they taste like the original Coke and Pepsi respectively. I will agree with that regular Coke is better than Pepsi. Just slightly.

RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time. RIP Matt Roberts. You were great.

Re: The lefties on trek

Those diet softdrinks all contain all sorts of artificial sweeteners of which a lot are suspected to be carcinogenic when consumed in large quantities.Plus I don't like the flavor too much of a chemical/perfume aftertaste.And I like the real thing no light substitute.

Re: The lefties on trek

Yea, I wonder about all of the diet soda I drank in my youth......
Maybe I can sue Pepsi🤔

Anyway I can't drink the stuff now. It's funny. If I drink like almost the smallest amount I get giant hiccups!
I sound like a donkey braying. Pretty embarrassing, I avoid the stuff now.😆😆
BRING THEM TO HEAL!

Re: The lefties on trek

our gastroenterologist says open a can and let it sit for 10 minutes.




Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: The lefties on trek

Just a few times of having the horrendous his-ups was enough for me. I don't want to chance it again. They are painful as well as loud.

BRING THEM TO HEAL!

Re: The lefties on trek

I don't drink a lot of soda to begin with, but I haven't drank diet soda (at least on purpose) since the 90's. I'm not sure what sweetener they use now, but nutrasweet used to give me a vicious headache.

Re: The lefties on trek

I drink it right away. 10 minutes, it'd be warm.

RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time. RIP Matt Roberts. You were great.

Re: The lefties on trek

then you need to lower the thermostat of your fridge. Or you could wrap it in a wet paper towel and put in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.



Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: The lefties on trek

or easier yet, put it in the fridge while it's doing the sitting open. But for me it's more a matter of I open it when I'm ready to drink it. On the other hand, I rarely just chug it straight down in a couple of minutes, so most of it will be open for that 10 minutes.

Re: The lefties on trek

Excellent points all around, guys. I drink soda maybe once a week.

RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time. RIP Matt Roberts. You were great.

Re: The lefties on trek

for me I can't chug too-cold soda it burns.


I will forever love flat cola. It's like drinking liquid velvet.

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: The lefties on trek

Nah. Flat is no good. I can chug Coke, but it always gives me the hiccups.

RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time. RIP Matt Roberts. You were great.

I told you! shut yourself up!

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

CJ doesn't care if you have him on ignore. He will still continue to talk to you regardless. He does this all the time. It must be part of his, "this whole place would crumble if I weren't for my posts" philosophy.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

I th k he might not know that he is on ignore or he figures in a few days or whenever, he might be back off of ignore.😄

Because you'd be in jail

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

This thread seems to have fallen of the track it was about lefties to go to smoking and diet soda drinks and now having been put on ignore lists.Make up your mind what is the thread about?

Re: dear cj: are you dense?


Make up your mind what is the thread about?


This thread is about the Borg, just like all the other threads on this board.

This is what assimilation feels like.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

I don't care what the thread was originally about but as long as the conversation is more or less civil... that's all that matters.

none of this: 'you're going to hell because you don't believe in God' crap.

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

But, you are.

I'm sure you are too.

If your local pedophile told you the man on the moon was real and you had to believe or you'd go to Pluto, would you be harassing people about it?

I agree Deem.

Since I am not a religious man myself I have to agree with you again,people should find it comforting to know that when you die you will become part of the great cycle of life and that nature doesn't waste anything.So your molecules and atoms will become part of another living being (in that respect the Buddhist religion is closer to the truth than Christianity).

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

Thank you, Nexus. Although I am not looking for followers or validation, it is good to see how 'normal' my thinking obviously is. I am not religious although I was raised in a religious family setting, and now two people here think they have the right and authority to damn me to their hell for not believing in THEIR God.

not A God in general, THEIR GOD.

yeah, that is what this show was all about...

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

Well I think the majority of people in my country are not religious and I myself was never raised in any religious fashion whatsoever.My parent always said it was something the I myself should decide upon and investigate and I thank them for that because I don't think you should "force" religion on a person and most certainly not a child.So when I was old enough I did some investigation into the various religions and what struck me was that basically all want the same thing it is only the dogmas and rituals that differ(although there are also a lot of similarities in those).And plus being a very curious and investigative kid (you know the type;The ones that always ask why?)I quickly realized that religion was not going to provide me with satisfactory answers to life's great mysteries.Plus my father is protestant-christian and my mother was Catholic(although both not practicing)and we have a saying in my country that says; "when two religions share the same bed the devil lies in between".So I guess I must be that "devil" .

Re: dear cj: are you dense?


(you know the type;The ones that always ask why?)


oh my god tell me about it! I was okay with my religion but I did have wonderings... like if we believe in one god and there really IS only one god, then who are these other Gods that people from other cultures are worshipping? what god was first? who is the one TRUE god?

once all I did was ask 'what happens if our god is not THE god -- what happens then?' and my mom flipped out. literally had a conniption fit. and I asked because I was truly curious and this thought of worshipping and loving someone who might or might not exist was scaring me a little -- I was young, like 12 at the time. but instead of saying: I don't know, sweetie. I know you are exposed to other religions in school and tv but all I do know is what WE have been TAUGHT through our religion.' no. that response didn't happen. mom sha7 a brick.

I can imagine your mother's shock certainly if you've all your life was told that your God is the right one and the only one and since you were probably a product of the changing times where various other religions became more prominent and were given a lot more exposure made you ask that question.It's at those moments when the generational gap exposes itself and that gap can sometimes be hard to overcome since your parents are probably a product of different and more "simpler" times when it was not in the nature for people to ask about and question those things.When my parents got fed up with me asking questions even they couldn't answer they gave me a library card and said find out for yourself(which was probably the dumbest thing they could do LOL)

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

you are reading my mind!

people think that Tony Soprano was the first one to say: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0dTZFaVjMAoutside it is 1990's inside it is 1955... nope, my parents.


when we moved to our new neighborhood we were considered so lame! and of course I was stuck at home because we lived in an area where you needed a car to get anywhere. not even a bike... boonies all around.

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

I saw on TV where the State religion was Lutheranism in Possibly Norway. I had to laugh as the state determines what religion people are permitted to practice.
I guess they tell you to move to Italy if you want to be Catholic. LOL

I wasn't raised religious. We stopped going to church when I was 4.
But I just don't see how all of the stuff on the planet could be random. There has to be some force in charge.

Because you'd be in jail

State religion doesn't mean that the state enforces one particular religion it means that the largest religious group in Norway is Lutheran,therefore the the State religion is Lutheran.The State Religion in my country is Protestant but it's not that you are forced to become a Protestant.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

I just saw this at work and I immediately thought of our two schlubs...

Blasphemous heathen.

Oh come on CJ not so serious.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?


Oh come on CJ not so serious.


He is still on ignore but I can tell by this response that I have proven something. and now he is butthurt.

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

Nothing serious Deem just "blasphemous heathen" which I must admit has a nice ring to it,and in fact for the most part actually true.
blasphemous;preferably every day and as much as I can.
heathen;since I don't abide to any religion or god it is partially true.(heathens can believe in other things or gods than established and institutionalized religions).

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

meanwhile, how can it be blasphemous when someone else thinks it??

I wonder what God thinks about Cj and his pillow... the screen licking...

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

Don't know is there any command that says "Thou shall not hug thy pillow" or "Thou shall not lick thy TV-screen"?

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

more like thou shalt not hump pillow...

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

It's the Bible Deem ,the Bible doesn't say "Thou shall not f#ck thy neighbor's wife" it says "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife" kids have to read that stuff.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

Is she a dumb com of a biscuit or what? What the hell is all this humping pillow sh!t? Who ever humped a pillow? And the screen was 12 years ago. Get over it, Deem!

Movie Theater: Young Frankenstein 10/10. RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

So what if it was 12 years ago? Does that mean God excuses it?

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

But he even admits it with the 12 years ago. I don't care if you did it when you were 8 years old. doing it is one thing, TELLING US ABOUT IT is completely another thing! One is understandable and the other is not.

I will buy you a goldplated bible if you know which is which.

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

I've seen a baby lick a tv screen but they lick everything. If he was a baby then it is understandable. Other than that neither is understandable.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

Well since some consider Trek almost like a religion(can't for the love of God think why you would want to change one religion for another but hey some people need that kind of thing)We must assume that he believes that the threads are a confessions booth.And when the Trek board absolves you you are free of "sin".

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

Thanks, Nex.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

It's not a sin to lick a screen, dumbass. You deserve the name.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?


It's not a sin to lick a screen, dumbass. You deserve the name.


But why did you lick the TV screen? Because on said tv screen was the breasts of a woman. A woman whom you lusted after. Guess what the Bible says about lust.


"For lust is a shameful sin, a crime that should be punished. It is a devastating fire that destroys to hell. It would wipe out everything I own."

Ouch.

I'm pretty sure God would frown upon you coming here and calling someone a dumbass too.

Re: dear cj: are you dense?

You know what he'd frown upon? Stalking. Being a jerk. You move to the front of the line.
