  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I always found it interesting how many recovering addicts and alcholics drink diet coke. I can remember when I was a kid, maybe 12, my friends mom was in recovery and all she drank was diet coke. I was a heavy diet coke drinker myself, but I have since cut way back. I was drinking like 6-10 cans a day without even thinking about it, now I don't keep it in the house.

I drink diet coke because I get free soda at work, and if I drank regular cokes, I would be a fat ass. I actually cut back after realizing its still acidic enough to rot my teeth.

I am a recovering addict of sorts, as is my fiancee. She LOVES diet coke, like an addict loves crack, but stays away now for fear of cancerous sweeteners.

In my Abnormal Psychology class our instructor mentioned that a new study that came out recently says that diet soda affects cognitive brain function. Luckily I hate the stuff. Plain old H20 will do or some unsweetened Iced tea for me. Crack kills!! Don't do it unless you can handle it socially.:laugh:

Its weird, never been a smoker, drug user, coffee drinker, yet find myself insanely addicted. Guess its a good thing I never touched that stuff.

Hate diet soda. Only soda's I have are Root Beer and Ginger Ale. Other than that I just have milk and flavored waters with no calories, no sugar, no anything. :D
