wanted to make one of these for a while. now i have. whatever.

thinking is fun but oh gosh can it get repetitive. the mind has no repetition_penalty built in, in fact: it usually rewards thinking similar things over and over again.

this is generic enough that i can just post it here right? yea this is fine. i am my own filer and that filter says “whatever, doesn’t matter, i got no secrets anyway, who cares. i don’t”. so i’m posting it.

next one is gonna be more fun, trust me. yeye this one is more or less “oh no i only got that much time before i need to sleep so this is what im gonna make” kinda thing. yes.

oh well, imma wait for “good time” now, whatever whatever.

i wish you a wonderful day in which you feel in control of yourself.

    I remember when I used to drink Monsters before it donkey-kicked my health one day.

    I also remember wondering similar(she did not, she was a pick-me, besides the point).

    I cannot think or even smell a Monster without thinking about the alcoholic version of it though. Smells and tastes near identical to each other.

    Schlaf Gut! (you probably already are asleep two hours later)

        It sounds wild. I wish I could have tried it but I wasn’t drinking a lot of canned alcohol during that brief period.

        I miss the old Energy+ Vitamin Water. It was so bitter! Like they didn’t use to put any sugar in it, it was like drinking straight up crushed guarana

      nono im awake still… will eepy sleepy soon tho.

      … do you have to mention that germaniac stuff every time? this isn’t reddit, we don’t need to guten tag at each other all the time. we can just be peeps on blahaj lemmy.

      i of course hope that she does like me buuuuut who knows. signs, even if they appear obvious can be meant very differently than intended. soooooooo imma have to see. whateverwhatever–

        do you have to mention that germaniac stuff every time?

        I can refrain from my German towards you if you wish, it is meant with full genuineness though, that was the informal similar to the use of hallo. I do not know what is done on Reddit but I can likely safely assert my use is meant much differently.

        And hopefully so! It is difficult to read signs, and sometimes even more difficult to read when someone actually does say something, since like you said, things can be meant very differently than intended. I will say though, it is much better to pop the question and get a response, and build from what is said, than to ponder what could be the case. The former progress can be made(and comes with its own challenges at times), the latter you are just spinning tires.

    I understand these to be trans soda. But why sugar free in particular? Jenny Nicholson said aspartame has like this distinctive warm “bite” to it but I figured that was just her particular niche tastes. Is it the same for trans women?

      this was just the first one i ever had. it’s okay, it’s fine. it does have a nice sourness to it but eh nothing special.

      (i’m not sure where you were going with the comment honestly… am a bit confussled)

        Sorry, it’s not related to your description text. I just see the soda a lot in memes and I wanted to know you or anyone else’s take on why this one.

          oooooh the strawberry one? wellll the strawberry one is piiiink and its got swirls on it and its got a reasonably realistic strawberry taste and it only exists in the ultra-zero-sugar variant so ther is no regular sugar variant.

          its pink and red kinda which makes it fun to look at, its similar to the regular white ultra buuuut its strawberry. its nice! its good. to me, its one of the best when I wanna have a good but easy to drink thing. its not harsh which is nice but its sour enough to remind you that strawberries are a bit sour. yeeee thats my judgement on it.

              There are a few pink flavors. Punch Monster Pipeline Punch for example has flowers on the bottle. And might be (one of) the oldest pink flavor available where I live. (Like with any product flavor, availibility varies by region)
