Mexican coca-cola with pure cane sugar is incredibly good. Like global domination good. Real sugar dr. Pepper is so sweet it’s basically a dessert. A Dessert I Like To Enjoy At 10-2-4. Yes I like to drink 200 calories of sugar at 10 o’ clock in the morning, this is healthy— it’s energy!

Green can Dr Pepper is the original cane sugar recipe that Dublin was using but bottled by the national brand which is why they told Dublin to stop using it.

Houston really needs the visionary genius behind this or it will never be able to find a way to kill more pedestrians. https://twitter.com/GarethDennis/status/1380477478758723592?s=20

Houston has pedestrians? https://mobile.twitter.com/TracesofTexas/status/1380498229935083522 Apparently they did once. The only time I'm ever in downtown Houston is for Astros games and it always looks deserted.

No that was a particular version of a new diet Dr. Pepper because apparently men think diet drinks are gay, but y'all never heard of 10-2-4?

The freeways turned downtown into an island of sorts. Then all the waves of white flight caused new centers of business to show up and people lived near those instead. Now you have a lonely area that's only good for some entertainment sometimes or a place to work.

When I was off from college, I would take the bus downtown (this was before they redid the routes a few years ago) and walk to the beacon to volunteer. That area did have pedestrian traffic and if I left around the end of a 9-to-5 schedule, there was even the on foot commuter rush for the buses/parking garages from the business types

zoux posted:Houston has pedestrians? I've worked and lived in/near downtown Houston for a while now. It definitely has pedestrians and foot traffic. And (in non-Corona times) it has a pretty walkable selection of bars, restaurants, and other stuff. I'm starting to think maybe some of you goons just don't go out and do stuff where people are and it's altering the way they think about cities.

I’ve been in the Med Center for a week now and there’s definitely tons of pedestrians in the morning and at lunchtime. Hermann Park is consistently full of people.

Might be some selection bias going on I suppose Yeah the ball park and lots of bails bonds joints for all the courthouses pretty much make up the entirety of that part of downtown. But in pre-pandemic times, go along Main Street between Rusk and Franklin or just around Market Square and it's definitely a different story as some goons have noted.
