Is it acceptable for adults to have soft drinks?

>>8170703
Cola was advertised as medicine.

Not in my country at least

Yes, nobody who is an actual mature adult will judge you for what you drink

People judge more on quantity.

>>8170703
Occasionally it does go well with an equally gluttonous meal. Regardless of age, no one should have more than a few cans a week for health reasons.

>>8170719
I will, especially if it's swill like Pepsi, Diet X, or Sprite/Mountain Dew

>>8170728
I mean realistically one can a week is too much.

7g of sugar a day or less, or really you're overdoing it.

>>8170840
Diet soda is better

>>8170703

Yes it is, but drinking too much soda is seen as being somewhat childish.

>>8170817
Then I guess you aren't an actual mature adult

>>8170703
An adult does whatever they want regardless of whether or not 4chan neckbeards approve.

>>8170703
Currently drinking a Cuba Libre (rum and coke)

>>8170703
I think so, but I think there's an unwritten thing certain sodas like Mountain Dew and orange/grape flavored soda is a bit kiddy. In a more authoritative or professional setting, I only ever see people drink brown colas like Pepsi, Coke, or Dr. Pepper.

>>8170718
Where do you live?

>>8170883
You're not only pretentious enough to call it a cuba libre, but then also pretentious enough to feel the need to explain what it is in brackets.
Good work.

>>8170916
No, I'm pretentious enough to call it a Cuba Libre because it isn't just rum and coke, it has lime juice in it. And it's in parenthesis, not brackets, because not everyone recognizes it as such, and I'm just passing the torch along.

No, it's retarded.

try it with cherry coke next time man. It's an insane step up considering the minor flavor change.

>>8171219
Willllllllllllllll doooooooooooooooooooooo

>>8170703
Hell no, that's like playing videogames in your 20s

>>8170817
yeah, cause adults with shit to worry about will pay attention to what others drink besides the person they are fucking.
I don't think i've given a shit about what a stranger is eating or drinking in 15 or more years.

Grow up, people.

>>8170703

Context imo. If you're in a nice restaurant, don't ask for a coke (they probably don't even have it). Get a sparkling water with lime or ask if they have other non-alcoholic options if you aren't a drinker.

If you're on your own though or at, like, a chili's, who cares man. Drink whatever you want

As long as you get the real sugar ones. Fuck high fructose corn syrup

No its not, idgaf what the norm is

>>8170703
>Is it acceptable for adults to not be degenerates?

I really don't know.

>>8170890
France

Only a manchildren or white trash would order that in a restaurant

Drinking it by itself or with trash srtreet food is fine tho

>>8171348
Wew, thank god I'm in my thirties then

>>8171748
>France

Yeah because I'm going to take advice from a people who don't know how to bathe, shave, and eat garden pests and disgusting amphibian creatures

>Is it acceptable for adults to have soft drinks?
It shouldn't be. I cringe when I see grown men drinking something made for children. It also leads me to believe they don't like bitter or sour flavours.

I always get bewildered why some choose it over a low-alcohol beer, as if it's healthier. Unless you're driving afterwards, why do adults choose sugary drinks instead of a beer or wine?

Yanks have stigmatised a casual beer with food so much that people choose to put shit shit into them instead, as it's more socially acceptable.

>>8171818
Beer with food isn't stigmatized at all, you know nothing about us.

>>8171818
(you)

>>8170883
Just call it a rum and coke dumbass.

>>8170728

>responsible and indicative of self-control

Try less than one can a month, fatty.

>>8170703
Who judges someone on what they drink.. They are there to help the food go down.

Personally I'll have a beer when eating out and water when at home.

>>8171748
>Implying people give a shit about what you're drinking.
Stop being an insecure frog.

Follow your dreams.

You have dry counties all over your country moron.

Religious nuts.

>>8170703
>No, adults are only allowed to drink alcohol at all times.

>>8170703
Look, anyone can have them. I just think they are a terrible accessory to any palatte. They fuck with it, have too much sugar, and fill tons of your calories for the day you could use on actual food.

>>8170703

in a bar, only acceptable if your designated driver, however non alchohlic beer or water is prefferable

in your own home its acceptable to drink whatever you want in your spare time, but this is only when you are not entertaining guests, with guests you should only offer coffee, tea, or alchohol depending on time of day and the guests themselves

meal drink options
breakfast = water, coffee, tea, or juice (not carton/straw juice a glass of fresh juice)

lunch = water, coffee, soft drink

dinner eat in = water, alchohol, quality of achohol to match quality of meal,
simple meal = beer, nice meal = wine

dinner eat out = water or wine.

If there is ever, at the very least, ONE appropriate time to have a soda, it's with a lunchtime soup or sandwich. Anyone who can't agree to that is just smoking huge amounts of cock.

probably over 80% of adult Americans drive after eating. There is your answer. Buzzed driving is drunk driving is $10k dollars and losing your license and running over Brenda.

It's acceptable for adults to drink whatever they damn well please

What's not acceptable adult behaviour is worrying about what others think of you drinking soft drinks
