--- Quote from: calenlass on 13 Feb 2008, 07:23 ---I mean, seriously, you know we could work on coming up with an overarching term for beer AND soft drinks, because they are kind of similar, did you notice? They are both fizzy and recreationally consumed

As a matter of fact, this is where the term "soft drink" comes from. Beer is a hard drink because it contains alcohol, so to contrast them with beer sodas are referred to as soft drinks. Following this logic, both hard and soft drinks are kinds of drinks.

Yes but see they are both quite different than, say, milk or lemonade (lemon squash or whatever it is).

Tremendously presumptuous, innit?

This is science.

Fixed.

Thank you. Bloody American cultural imperialist. Surely there is no irony or hypocrasy in a Briton complaining that.

Nothing chocolate-flavoured ever tastes good, unless it's, y'know, chocolate.
The coke thing: kind of stupid. As if you asked for a burger and a coffee, then said "I meant a cooked breakfast and a tea."

You are absolutely right. But the Coke is being sold in your town, and Darfur is a long way away.

Dude that statement was sarcasm to the max. I thought the "This is science" statement would be absurd enough to tip people off. Oh well, the internet is a shitty place for sarcasm in all forms.
However there is truth to the roast beef part of my statement. If you are having cold cuts without roast beef, you truly are doing something wrong.
