Just one can of fizzy drink a day is linked to more aggressive behaviour by teenagers, claim researchers.

A new study found youngsters were significantly more likely to be violent and carry weapons if they regularly consumed fizzy soft drinks.

The study showed those having more than five cans of non-diet carbonated drinks a week were more likely to get involved in violent assaults.

The US researchers are uncertain if the link is causal, but have not ruled this out.

It is possible that unknown factors causing aggression in youngsters also influence their dietary habits – which is why they opt for fizzy drinks – but previous research suggests poor nutrition may be a cause of antisocial behaviour.

You're joking right...? People fund this shit? This is bogus, I used to drink at least a 24 pack a day, literally, back a few years ago and I wasn't walking around with guns busting caps up in banks because of it...
 
How long until soda's banned now?

I used to drink a ton of pop (well I still do, albeit significantly less). I usually had a gun, but that's mostly because I like guns.

I'm curious how people money for this shit... I can't find many investors for my endeavors, and they're a hell of a lot more useful than this. I guess having Dr. as a title means you can get money for whatever the fuck you want.

This is how I see it going down:
"So, Mr. Varine, you need two million dollars so you can examine how quickly a five year old can learn Calculus while Hollywood Undead is playing in the background in comparison to a five and a half year old? I'm sorry, but we just don't see how this would be in OUR interests."
"Actually, it's DOCTOR Varine."
"Oh, I'm sorry Doctor. Are you sure two million is enough?"
 
they have next to no evidence... just a coincidence - I can't wait until this gets disproved just like the cellphone cancer
 
I suddenly feel aggressive because I've had at least 2Litres of Mountain Dew today.
(I love that stuff for some reason.)

Clearly someone doesn't understand the thought process of the US Government.
 
Correlation doesn't mean cause.
 
It sounds like Bullshit! But of course it's not healthy for your teeth. LOL
Well, that's another matter
 
I am mountain dew king!
Feel my carbonated drink induced nerd-rage!

    We have some elderly guests that regularly come hang out at the bar at the end of the night, and every once in a while we don't see someone for a few weeks and then someone shows up with their obituary.
  • Varine Varine:
    We usually let them do their memorials there in the morning if they want to and I'll make them some snacks and drinks. There was one guy named Tom that came in like every night and would sit by himself and get a bunch of soup and a glass of wine. idk why but he LOVED our fucking soup, like he would order a fucking quart of it at a time and would always get so sad when we stop doing it for the summer.

  • Varine Varine:
    But he also loved our calamari, which is another thing I hate but it sells super well so I can't change it. There was one day he came in and was asking me how to make it, because he tried to at home once in the off season when we stop running it and he really wanted it lol
  • Varine Varine:
    I think he's one of the only people I've made recipes for for free because he really wanted a broccoli cheddar, and it was like dude I don't have a recipe, it's just whatever I have, but here, this is how you do it
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think he ever figured out how to do the calamari in a pan though, like idk how to do that either. He was afraid of the at home deep fryers though and it's like yeah, that's fair, I am too
  • Varine Varine:
    He was just such a sweet old man, we had two servers pregnant and they held a baby shower together, he was soooooo fucking excited to get to see a baby. Unfortunately he died a month or so before they were born
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So I decided to Google some people that I had not seen or heard from in a while and sure enough one of my old best friends, we had a falling out years ago but whatever, find out he died of Pancreatic Cancer in January. I have also lost a few of my closer acquaintances from growing up the last year. Getting old - people die - I kinda thought it was going to be this way a few years ago....

    Forum running super slow again
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Not really clear from the stats as to what is causing the slowness.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    We get a lot of guest traffic so it may just be the load is getting too high and not from any particular source.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks like the server is maxed out on CPU.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Oh it looks like a lot of the traffic is Silkroad Forums. That domain isn't protected by Cloudflare.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    But the old Silkroad site is still on its own server. I just had a test site set up on this server for it.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I just disabled that test site. Let's see if that helps the load.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks much better already.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I had actually forgot about the Silkroad site. I had asked
  • The Helper The Helper:
    SD Ryoko about it and he said the couple of people left on there really like it, that was a few years ago, maybe I should check back
  • jonas jonas:
    I guess when you're getting old, and the last day of soup season draws near, you start wondering
  • jonas jonas:
    will I make it to the start of the next season? or was this the last time I'll ever have my favorite dish?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am doing my first Vibe Coding project. In installed the environment and tools according to instructions but it is all chat doing this for me at my direction. It is fun really and holy shit I might finish in 2 hours what it would have taken a day to in my Access and this would be an electron app complete new
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Good stuff.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Just make sure it is secure. :)
