NYC Loses Appeal To Ban Large Sugary Drinks

[Amulet of Immortality]

Thread is full of retards. Drinking sugared drinks will not get you fat. Holy shyt, it's like yall are fat and blaming it on this shyt I do agree with one poster, anyone obese should be shot down and gagged. Placed in a boat to Africa and fed to a village.

Sugar is a drug point blank and like all drugs it can have harsh effects if it's abused.

The problem is you have entire generations raised on the shyt and now they've become dependent on it.

I wonder how a grown person who's never had a sugary beverage in his life might react if you gave him a can of coke. I wouldn't be surprised if they spit it out.

i saw on tv they're trying to call obesity a disease. i think it is.
i can't stand fat ppl.

Is it bad that I have a bigger issue with fat people than drug addicts?

Sad that NYers get more up in arms over this bullshyt than for the major issues affecting the city.

for instance?

for instance?

Housing, education, and income inequality, to name a few.

"Don't take my big gulp away from me"

Honestly, this is how I see it. People getting riled up over super-sized soft drinks =


I would definitely not be trying to push this law if I were in charge, but I'm not going to go out there and protest about it like my life depended on it when there's so much more to be worried about. Honestly, the emotions this stirred up in all these crazy, gluttonous people makes me think they deserve the ban.

I thought it was a small and reasonable measure by Bloomberg, and I have no reason to for the soda industry

you really need a 60 oz Big Gulp in one sitting?
