Friends was in a supermarket the other day. He bought an item labelled "Liquid Death".

What the product actually was is something he never buys because he never needs it, but because of the fantastically insane name of the product he said he just had to buy it!

That product? The one named Liquid Death?

Do you want to know what it was?It was a 12 pack of 500ml cans of water

This kind of marketing works, kids. Something so unexpected you just have to buy it!

    IIRC liquid death also has some very good policies.

    And it was originally created because drinking water isn't cool, and musicians in bands wanted something to drink that looked like energy drinks or alcohol while staying hydrated. They mentioned bands filling empty monster cans with water as an inspiration.

    Only in America does the coolness of drinking water ever factor into anything, coca cola successfully brainwashed the entire country lol

    "Only in America" meaning the United States or the Americas or just North America?

    I'm asking because there is a city in Mexico that drinks more Coca-Cola than water.

    Yeah, but at least they have high sugar warnings on their beverages, so it's likely nothing compared to what the US does with the only metric measured bottles available in the region (which are typically much cheaper too).

    What the actually fuck is this response for asking what you meant by "America"?

    If you truly can't understand what America refers to in this context then you are too dumb to waste my time replying

    Well first off instead of answering with a couple words, you decide to insult my intelligence and talk about how valuable your time us. So you are lying and your time isn't valuable at all.

    Second, note this is Lemmy is internationally open. Look up the term "America" and what it can refer to.

    Third if I describe something and it fits your description, than why would I be illogical for just asking a question of what are you referring?

    Do you not see the flaw to your logic?

    I think it's more beer than coke. It's also for like drinking with friends and not standing out if you don't like alcohol but the rest do.

    Edit: maybe I should say also for alcohol rather than more for alcohol.

    No joke, their Dr Pepper imitation is delicious and 10 calories per can.

    They also have an iced tea called Death to Billionaires which I appreciate.

    Liquid Death is just an overpriced can of water, right?

    In essence, yes. It fills a small niche and a can isn't as bad as a plastic bottle but in the end it's water in a can.

    I would never buy bottled water either, but I do have an unopened can of liquid death standing around because it's such a fantastic can. Guests do ask me about it, or pick it up, sometimes. It's always disappointing to them and that's what I feed on.

    Between that and the "100% Grass" half-and-half next to it...I gotta check out the dairy case at my dispensary. Usually they just have ice cream.

    THC infused coffee creamer would make for the best hippie speedball.

    It's just tit juice. Why does it need to be any more freaky?

  • source

  • [–] 17 points 1 year ago (5 children)

    It already is freakier than that. It's tit juice created via the industrial mass rape of billions of cows worldwide, that are kept in cramped and dirty conditions and seperated from their offspring at birth, so their tit juice can be harvested for profit and human consumption.

    Dairy and meat consumption on the scale humanity is currently consuming is very new.

    The industrial mass rape of billions of animals and horrifyingly massive numbers of livestock animals now on earth, is not a 'natural' thing either.

    Wild mammals make up only 4% of mammal biomass on earth now, 62% is livestock and 34% is humans.

    Just because your ancestors had no other means of survival but to consume animals and their excretions, does not mean that it is healthy, natural, or wise for to be breeding and consuming livestock at the scale people are now.

    It's milk, but from bulls instead of cows.

    Stealing breast milk from another species is pretty damn weird, so probably that.

    Calling udders "breasts" is pretty weird bro.

    I like to call them "long nipples".

    Details shmetails. A teat is a teat. Would you prefer "mammary milk" to be technically correct?

    Fun trivia: Did you know, the only other animals to have 2 thoracic and no other teats, besides anthropoids, are elephants and anteaters?

    Idk but during my holiday at the farm I learned that bulls give tasty milk too!

  • source
  • [–] 7 points 1 year ago (6 children)

    Twist, it is just regular milk, because milk is already freaky and fucked up.

    Next time you drink milk, just imagine suckling on an animal breast. For most of you that would be disgusting (for some of you, please don't imagine it)

    Same thing as Soylent Green. Or maybe just their milk.
