I only drink water.

My water contains only the deuterium variety of hydrogen. Far superior to the regular, common, more simplistic sort, clearly intended for more garden variety simplistic people.

Indeed, it is only those of higher class and thus of better blood who may attain and appreciate such elixir. You know what your Plebeian Poland Springs says, "Born Better". Only I actually am of better blood. Born better. And your "Coca-Cola", what are they saying now... open happiness? Heh... you know what they say about commoners and happiness.

Truly, get on my level. I need something soft to stand on, for at such heights residing on your knees will be the most familiar stature you can manage. With luck you may glimpse a drip of this beverage of the gods, as your feeble mind struggles to comprehend the intricacies of the vast wonder before and beyond you.

do it. there are way too many good drinks, with real depth of taste, that conjure up great memories and feelings when you drink them, to waste your time and health on sugar water.

i drink a lot of chamomile tea right now to alleviate my anxiety, looking into vanilla as well, but my favorite drink right now is soy milk. its sweet, milky, nutty, and quite comforting. i had this amazing nutty almond tea or something, it was asian, i'm not entirely sure what it was but again it felt so comforting, the aroma and taste brought up images of some last samurai type shit, just sitting on a wooden floor, in an open house while it softly rains outside and i sit, feeling like everything is at peace.

Yes, there are certain things in teas and other consumables that may have an effect on the one who eats it. But, you'd have to consume more than the normal amount to even feel the effects. The effect is so minimal that it's all in your head.

Yeah, alright. I bet valerian is all "in people's head" too. Going back to philosophy, it's difficult to define a difference between self and environment, and it's also difficult to say which does which via which and what mechanism. Your claims of tea hinging on a placebo effect are nonsense.

Ad hominem isn't inherently invalid, which is is why in the realm of informal logical fallacies, they cooked up the "fallacy fallacy". People who cite logical fallacies with little other substance likely deserve the initial ad hominem.

Tea tends to be clustered as far as its psychoactive ingredients go, relative to the strain and part of its growth cycle / location on the plant. Granted there's an inherent degree of uncertainty, but I'd say there's a reliably tested and defined range to expect. The bigger problem is fluorine and heavy metals in the cheap bottom leaf stuff.

Chamomile... Chamomile I don't know as much about. I do know it doesn't mix well with certain drugs, something it has in common with skullcap. I also know sometimes it makes me feel very relaxed, and sometimes it makes my head feel raw inside, the latter experience is a function of individual physiology though. Don't really know, as far I could imagine, if harvested in similar ways the benzodiazpine receptor, and other GABA components should be fairly predictable. Even if it isn't overdose levels suddenly being in the plant in an average cup of tea would be pretty unlikely. Shit is "random" as far as our perspective can go, that's just the way it is.

Dosage in mg is only relevant because it exists. Body is many co-regulating factors at once. You can consume roughly the same dosage of a drug on two separate days and experience very different effects.

Tolerance is negligible when it comes to methylxanthines. It's very rapidly gained and lost and withdrawal tends to be short lived. I drank a lot of tea for a while (we're talking a very lot) and my experience was in line with that. Not really sure why you're bringing it up to begin with, "tolerance"-like effects are just a part of pharmacology.

I know all I need to about you. I think a lot about people, and having an outsider's perspective tends to make you quite honest, you see things very clearly others often cannot. Over time we all build very finely tuned heuristics to account for ambiguity and uncertainty. In your case, I'd be relatively surprised, but not unhappy, to be wrong. You probably deserve anything I say to you and more that I do not.

Alcohol, I tend to have beer, greyhounds or gin and tonic. I'm not a fan of mixing with soda, with tonic water being the exception because it's bitter and doesn't have that syrupy taste.

The closest I get to soda is pouring sparkling water over a slice or two of fruit and some soft herbs, then muddling it. It's really refreshing with dinner and I honestly prefer the tart herbal/citrus taste without any sugar.

Haha. No, you don't. It's actually toxic when consumed in those sorts of quantities, because it messes with the hydrogen bonds in your body something rotten.

soda is an over sweet beverage that only children should be able to tolerate in their mouths. it strips paint off cars, rots away most things left in it, and doesnt taste good. its literally syrup and carbonation. people who mix alcohol with it are wasting good alcohol. unless of course you buy cheap shit alcohol then, ya know, youre a fuck up anyway. water (best thing for you, cheap on tap), alcohol (obvious), 100% juice (tastes better than soda, better for you)

soda is literally like eating garbage

[Anonymous No.6509204]

Back in high school I used to drink soda all the god damn time. I was pulling back at least 4 cans a day. That's a lot of fucking sugar.

I decided that I wanted to change my health, so I switched from dark sodas to clear sodas and eventually over to carbonated beverages and juices and then flavored waters and now I'm a huge fan of just normal cold filtered water. (Perhaps an occasional wedge of lemon or lime for flavor.)

When I drink soda these days, after not having it for so long, I find the flavor to still be good but over all it's way way too sweet for me drink more than one. Diet Soda's have too many other issues that honestly aren't even worth bothering with - so fuck those.

[Anonymous No.6509399]

>>6509204
The unfortunate part is, beyond the carbonated water itself, soda in no way has to be so shamelessly terrible for you. People buying this crap support someone overcharging them and lacing their stuff with garbage because it's cheaper. It's maddening. Things become and stay shit because people simply will not, and cannot, just say no.

My experience parallels your own as well, and I think most people would say the same. Once you stop eating sugary things, you can't really go back very easily. The taste becomes sickly and far too strong, at best. If I wanted to feel like I was eating raw refined sugar I'd just do that, because there isn't too much for finesse in the flavor. Much rather eat a medjool date or something.
