Not every adult drinks alcohol at every point they consume liquid. By that logic, who drinks water? Fizzy drinks are not an alcohol substitute!

If only kids drink colas, then why do they always show adults in the advertising?

When you want to flog Sunny Delight or Capri Sun, they always show kids drinking it, because it's a kids drink.

By that reasoning, adults do drink colas and Kenneth is wrong.

Sorry Kenneth.

I predict they will use adults more and more in soft drink advertising because of the call to ban alcohol advertising. *Looks into crystal ball*

If menstruation is the monthly discharge of blood from the uterus of non-pregnant women from puberty to menopause, why is the "discharge" always blue and never red in the adverts? Don't believe the advertising.

I mostly drink water and alcohol. I might drink diet cola as a pick-me-up as I don't drink tea or coffee and have a small glass of orange juice with breakfast. I don't like most soft drinks as I find them too sweet and/or syrupy. We grew up only having water or milk to drink. But I'm one of those people who carry a bottle of water around with them all day.

I am a water baby! Pleased

Dolly sounds like one of those deprived middle class kids. You know, the weird ones who didn't own a telly, never drank Coke, never went to McDonalds, never played video games but could play the clarinet and knew all the rules to chess. Freaks.

Is it any wonder that when those same kids got to Uni, they all became massive drug addicts.

I don't think I'd want to drink that either.

I can't stand water. Ick.

Bah! Conan laughs at your teatotalers and designated drivers.

Oh, RC, I can drink. I can drink like the wind (?). I can drink most people under the table. But, to paraphrase David Banner, you might not like me when I'm drunk. ;) (You might not like me sober, of course...)

Tim, I am fully aware of your behaviour when you've had a few. I still have those PMs. Whistling nnocently ;) :D

:O

"How very dare you!" (Ha, that catchphrase still makes me melancholy.)

I found out not long after I got married that I have a natural ability to drink people twice my size under the table, so I very rarely drink now. It's also when I realized that my husband was an alcoholic and not the fun, silly kind. So, I drink lots of water, coffee, tea, and tonic water. Call me boring, but I know what could've been.
