70 cans a week

You know anybody who drinks that much pop? I do. And I drink 'em fast. 2 minutes or less, that can is gone. Evidently, not too many other people can do that either.

Kidneys are bound to fail, but what a way to go. Big K. I called the Kroger customer service line and they didn't even know what it was. $8/hour call center workers are too good for the cheap stuff. They called it soda, too. Soda?

It's pop dammit. 70 cans a week.

I thought you stopped drinking soda (or dramatically cut down your intake) a few years ago.

Changed to diet, but that's probably been about 10 years ago. Thank goodness for that.

Pop is what made me fat in the first place. 12 pack a day of the real stuff during the summers when I was a kid. The old man got so pissed. Back then, he bought name brand. $3 or $4 each. I guzzled down a whole pack. Everybody else probably combined to drink half of another pack.

Haven't drank pop in over a decade. One of the best decisions I ever made.

I have given up drinking it pretty much and if I ever do it is diet. Maybe once every 2 or three months I might have one. Don't even like it that much anymore.

Thank goodness WV sided with the north on this one. It was bad enough that I came here and told people I loaded up the buggy at Kroger. They thought I was Amish and had a horse waiting outside somewhere.

So I have to call the damn buggy a cart, but at least I can still call pop pop. And we can still call the Reds shitty. Are they ever gonna suck this year. Holy cow. September won't get here quick enough.

I used the term buggy and pop when i moved to NC and people didn't know what I was talking about.

It is either soda or Coke(even though Pepsi started in NC). A buggy is a cart.

More like the Midwest it looks like. Not New England. Thank goodness there's enough civilization out here in the corn to avoid all of us hicks having to move to some awful place like New England for work.

5000 people per square inch. Stepping on each other. It's more spread out in the Midwest. Even back in the hills, they pile people up on hillsides and in holes. Out here, they just disperse into the vast flatness.

I've seen places out west on youtube trucker dash cam videos. Have to admit it looks quite appealing. Iowa, the Dakotas, Montana, Wyoming. Miles and miles you can see with nobody around at all. Of course if I drive 20 miles the right way out of here, I can get to some places that are kind of like that.

I grew up in nc it's always been called a buggy and Coke
