Space Cadet Omoly posted:Do it, can't be any worse than the other stuff posted here. Dr Cheeto posted:Do they reduce soda consumption? Short version so as not to poo poo up the thread. I'll speak strictly about non-diet soda taxes here, and there are complexities I'm passing over. Soda taxes are fairly effective at reducing non-diet soda consumption and (although it's really hard to get good data) negligibly effective at improving public health, at best. The original data blaming soda for the obesity epidemic appears to have been correlation doing most of the work (americans were eating more of everything, period, during the time being studied). People who do actually reduce soda intake in response to the tax mostly tend to just replace it with another caloric source. The original researchers who promoted the idea (who were mostly the same people who blamed soda and added sugars for the obesity epidemic) based their impact predictions on past soda taxes, which weren't meant to be punitive and which were really, really low. The putative effects were predicted to scale something like geometrically, which, well, they don't. The nutrition researchers involved were really committed to finding this effect, because it was appealing to attack empty calorie artificial sugar water chemicals by evil corporations. The legal and public discourse side of things is a mess, and explains why soda companies are such an appealing target. The American Beverage Association spends millions of dollars on (often quite badly run) misinformation campaigns to oppose the taxes wherever they're proposed, and Bloomberg Philanthropies (I poo poo you not) spends similar amounts to get them enacted (I think- the pro-tax groups are actually really aggressive at concealing their funding and footprint a lot of the time). The ABA are scum and I'm by no means a fan of them, but I think the taxes are genuinely bad policy. That said, like 90% of the arguments both sides are using about them are meaningless.

Vanilla extract can be pretty decent proof (~70ish); I once caught a lady drinking a ton of them in the middle of a grocery store aisle. That's how I know this is fake; Tinsley would know that.

That's how I know this is fake; Tinsley would know that. I have a family member who's struggled with alcoholism, and at one of his low points he was throwing back bottles of extract to get around not being able to buy booze normally. It's absolutely got a fair amount in it, it's just 1. the bottle tend to be pretty small, and 2. you have to be awfully hard up to go that route.

I wonder if Tinsley ever got desperate enough to quaff lighter fluid, and if not how do I persuade him to try.

I like how some people noticed the TInsley edit, but nobody pointed out that the prickly city ones were edits too, because nobody reads prickly city.

On more than one occasion now I've run into other goons playing Heroes of the Storm, and they will flood chat with thread memes and DEBT. Not that it bothers me, just a weird cross-pollination of bad things (mobas and politoons). although my friend probably wondered what the hell was happening.

Trumpisms were huge in clash of clans during the election. I don't think it was even intended to be a troll, he is legit hilarious in the way all small children are. Some people did get upset, but I think that's par for the course with anything these days
